Enemy Within randomly chooses one of two objective-based modes in these situations. But Exalt won’t let you go that easy, so you’ll have to fight the cells in turn-based battles (you control both your squad and the agent you sent in earlier ). They need time to gather intel, and once that passes, you have to send a squad to extract them. When you know what countries the cells are in, you can start sending in your covert agents. You can spend some cash to expose them with an Intel Scan - causing them to look for a new place to hide - or you can avoid that expense and wait until they launch one of their operations, which ends up revealing their location anyway. The best way to stop them from carrying these out is by revealing their locations before they can act. If the sleeper cells go unheeded, they will disrupt XCOM operations every chance they get: Propaganda missions raises a country’s panic level, Sabotage drains some of your cash, and Research Hack delays any projects you’re researching at the time.

You can choose your posture with respect to Exalt.” “Unlike the alien invasion –where UFOs will come in, you shoot them down or fail to, abductions and terrors occur, and you have to deal with them using what you got - here, you can choose your tempo. “This gameplay is something that we felt XCOM needed, in the sense that this is a campaign that the player controls the tempo of, to a certain extent,” said lead designer Ananda Gupta to GamesBeat. While letting Exalt run freely will hurt you in the long run, defeating them is optional - the extraterrestrials are still your primary objective. Once you find its base, you can send in a squad to destroy the organization once and for all. Completing these missions earn you clues to the whereabouts of Exalt’s headquarters.
To combat this threat, XCOM now has access to Global Covert Operations, a branch of missions that sends in a single plainclothes soldier (armed with nothing more than a pistol and a grenade) to secretly investigate the cells.
Exalt sends sleeper cells to different countries (the same ones XCOM monitors) to advance its pro-alien agenda. It believes that the aliens’ genetic experimentations are a good thing - in fact, it wants to help them - and it wants to rule the world. Like XCOM, Exalt is a paramilitary organization that operates in the shadows … but its goals are drastically different.
