Before our unfettered hands-on time with the game they proudly proclaimed that this would be the biggest Company of Heroes game to date. You could feel the infectious nature of their excitement, and it didn’t take long to see why. With nine years between entries, could they recapture what made Company of Heroes 2 so special? It took all of 5 minutes for me to see that Company of Heroes 3 won’t be as good as its predecessor – it’ll be infinitely better.įrom the moment VP of Production David Littman and Executive Producer Steve Mele spoke, it was clear that they are incredibly passionate about this project. NB: this announcement has been updated to include specific information about factions, battlegroups, and maps available, as well as confirmation that anyone that wants to play in the test is able.Company of Heroes and its sequel soaked up a metric ton of tactical time for me, so I was more than a little excited to check out what Relic Entertainment had up their sleeve for the third entry. There shouldn’t be any single player content involved, so if you were hoping to play more of the DAK campaign or try a newer version of the Dynamic Italian Campaign, you’re out of luck! Just another seven weeks, Commander! Alternatively, you can read what will and won’t be included by heading here and reading John's post where he clearly lays everything out. The “ Final Preview” video gives a broad overview of what everyone will have on February 23rd. The US Forces Sizzle Trailer and the Wehrmacht Sizzle Trailer are great teasers about each unit. IGN’s CoH3 page has many articles and videos about what to expect on launch day. 1s, 2s, 3s, and 4s will be available as well as eight maps across each of the four game modes.

The USF and Wehr reflect the Italian Campaign (1943-1944) while the UKF and DAK are set in North Africa (1942-1943). The four factions are the The United States Forces (USF), British Forces (UKF), Wehrmacht (Wehr) and the Deutsches Afrikakorps (DAK). The multiplayer tech test will have all four factions available at launch with each of their three Battlegroups.
