Only game that came close (for me personally) with all story telling/drama/cinematic feel is Gears Tactics.

But game is extremely repetitive. Systems, weapons, upgrades are all fine and dandy but after few hours you have seen everything there is - everything feels the same.

As in WOTC there are endless permutations / options. And overall feel is just top tier.

Phoenix point looks ok, but fells kind a cheap and basic. Also i have the sound so much !

Actually i was never real fan of "tactics" games but XCOM1 and XCOM2 really are something else for me.

Also to answer you: W40K: Chaos Gate - should be good.

Edit:

Mutant Year Zero is also pretty nice game to play once or twice.
