Company of Heroes 3 is the perfect blend of action, tactic, and strategy, bringing back the venerable strategy franchise. Take command while the action is still happening in the battle, and then exercise general command while directing the overall campaign, where each choice counts.

Utilize four distinct factions and brand-new global Battlegroups to overwhelm your adversaries. Play at your own pace across campaign and skirmish modes before diving into frantic multiplayer action. Command ground, air, and naval forces and build supply lines to crush enemy advances on the new Dynamic Campaign Map – no two playthroughs are ever alike.

The third installment of Company of Heroes’ acclaimed tactical gameplay is here. The most intense tactical experience to date results from the collision of well-liked combat mechanics and genuine new gameplay elements. ​.

Use daring flanking maneuvers to expose enemy side armor, experiment with brand-new infantry breaching mechanics that let you drive enemy units from their positions, and master elevation to improve your line of sight and gain the upper hand.

A Stunning New Theater.
Welcome to the Mediterranean, a breath-taking new theater where untold tales of war can be found. Engage ferocious enemy forces while traversing breathtaking coastal vistas in Italy, wide-open deserts in North Africa, and mountain passes. You will always be on the edge of your seat thanks to stunning visuals that deliver authentic and incredibly diverse environments. ​.

Given that verticality now significantly affects a unit’s line of sight (True Sight), mountainous maps will require strategies that are specifically different from coastal towns. Reconnaissance will need to be meticulous and daring armored maneuvers will be necessary on desert plains. On this new frontline, intelligence triumphs over speed, and skillful use of the local terrain will allow you to confound your opponents and drive them off the field.

 

Additional Layers of Strategy.
Experience the largest single-player campaign in franchise history. With the full’sandbox’ gameplay that the new Dynamic Campaign Map offers, players can take control of the war effort as a whole and make an unprecedented number of strategic decisions. ​.

Before deploying rear guard defenses to secure your advance, establish crucial supply lines. To weaken and disperse enemy forces or to build a Partisan spy network, launch air and naval strikes. To suit your playstyle, select your forces and upgrade your veteran companies. However, players have complete control over the pacing of the single-player action thanks to the optional Full Tactical Pause feature. Plan your attacks, then quickly queue up deadly precision plays to give you the advantage in combat.
