It's actually a most apt comparison. Both are turn-based squad tactics games with emphasis on small-unit tactics, along with a side of base management. In the case of XCOM though, the base management is more extensive with the ability to customize your base and needing to respond to threats around the world, instead of being a linear campaign like in VC.

It's odd that for a long time, Valkyria Chronicles was actually compared to X-COM (the original game with a hyphen) as its spiritual successor.
