  We present new results on transverse momentum spectra, integrated yields, and
mean transverse momenta of pions, kaons, and protons, as well as of
$\phi$-mesons for various centrality classes measured in Pb-Pb and Xe-Xe
collisions at the LHC. This unique set of data allows us to investigate bulk
particle production for very different systems at similar multiplicities. The
chemical and kinetic freeze-out parameters are extracted via
statistical-thermal and combined blast-wave fits to the data in heavy-ion
collisions and are compared to results obtained in pp and p-Pb collisions at
similar multiplicities. The evolution of collective-like effects from pp and
p-Pb collisions to Xe-Xe and Pb-Pb collisions is further investigated by
detailed comparisons to predictions from models.
