Second Wave will enable players to unlock gameplay modifiers that will add more challenge and replayability. Players will have to start a new game to access these options.

-War Weariness: Funding goes down over time.
-E-115: Elerium degrades over time.
-Total Loss: Lose all soldier gear upon death.
-Alternate Sources: The power source cost to build facilities increases dramatically.
