The legendary strategy saga is back! Company of Heroes 3 is the ultimate blend of action, tactics and strategy. It's up to you to give orders in the midst of real-time battles, then direct the entire campaign as a General, where every decision you make will have an impact.
Dominate your opponents with new and classic international factions, units and armed groups. Lead your land, air and naval forces and establish supply lines to halt the enemy's advance on the dynamic new campaign map, where the game experience is always fresh! Play at your own pace in the Campaign and Skirmish modes before plunging into the heat of multiplayer action. Discover the hidden history of a sublime Mediterranean theatre of operations, including next-generation destructible environments, thanks to Relic's Essence Engine.
Company of Heroes 3 offers the tactical gameplay that is so popular with the new generation. Fan-favourite combat mechanics are now enhanced with authentic new gameplay features, delivering the most tactical experience to date.
Use daring overruns to weaken enemy flanks, discover new infantry breaching systems to flush enemy units from their garrisons, then master the high ground to widen your field of vision and gain the upper hand.
Welcome to the Mediterranean: a breathtaking new theatre of operations will reveal the hidden stories of war. Fight fierce battles against enemy forces in Italian mountain passes, spectacular coastal landscapes and the vast deserts of North Africa. Sublime graphics await you in authentic and varied environments that will test your vigilance.
In the mountain maps, you'll have to adopt completely different strategies to the coastal cities, where the heights will have a huge impact on your units' field of vision (with True Sight). In the desert plains, you'll have to carry out reconnaissance operations with great caution, as well as intrepid manoeuvres under heavy protection. On this new front line, cunning will take precedence over speed, and strategic use of specific terrain will enable you to divert the enemy and make them retreat.
Discover the largest single-player campaign in the entire saga. The dynamic new campaign map offers full sandbox-style gameplay, allowing players to command all war efforts and encounter unparalleled depth in terms of strategic choices.
Establish important supply lines before deploying your rear defences to secure your position. Launch air raids and naval attacks to weaken and disperse enemy forces, or even liberate a nearby town to develop a partisan spy network. Choose your forces and upgrade veteran groups to suit your style of play. What's more, the full tactical pause feature gives players total control over single-player action. Plan your attacks, then effortlessly execute deadly accurate manoeuvres to gain the upper hand in battle.
Company of Heroes 3 will delight even the most ardent fans of the Second World War with the largest number of factions available in the series to date, while new army customisation mechanics allow you to call on a variety of special units for support. Battle with new elite commandos, including US-Canadian Special Forces, Commonwealth Gurkhas and more.
From devastating tank fighters to clandestine reconnaissance vehicles, Company of Heroes 3 offers the largest selection of units in the saga to date. The ultra-light Weasel, the Nashorn anti-tank and the Chaffee light tank are just some of the units making their debut in the game. And let's not forget reworked classics like the M3 Half-track, which can now be used to repair and steal abandoned enemy vehicles!
Feel the impact of every shell burst and naval bombardment thanks to the cutting-edge Essence Engine developed by Relic. In Company of Heroes 3, every location becomes a fully destructible sandbox offering unlimited tactical gameplay options for you and your enemy.
Destroy fortified buildings to collapse on enemy squadrons, then enjoy improved destruction mechanics with your soldiers as they take advantage of the new dynamic ruins for cover. Incredible particle effects and rendering technology bring fire, sand and smoke to life like never before. Expect gorgeous new soldier animations with improved AI, faithfully reproducing squad reactions on the battlefield. Optimised for DirectX 12 and multi-core processors, Relic's new game engine technology will deliver action worthy of a Hollywood blockbuster.
