The game is bringing its boots-on-the-ground storytelling to a brand-new theatre of war in the Mediterranean, unlocking authentic new tactics, factions, and a wealth of stories from World War 2.
You can expect a variety of locations such as Italian mountain passes, North African deserts, and coastal regions.
With the new title, Company of Heroes’ gameplay has been enhanced with authentic new features, making for “the deepest tactical experience to date.” It features a dynamic campaign map, allowing you to command ground, air, and naval forces and build supply lines as you lead the Allies’ campaign to retake mainland Italy from Axis forces.
The choices you make will affect not only the battles you fight but the story of the war itself. In single-player modes, Full Tactical Pause gives you a choice on the pacing, allowing you to freeze the action. You will also be able to coordinate all actions at once, allowing you to think through every move in detail without the pressure of doing it all in real-time.
