Powered by the Essence Engine 3.0, the Company of Heroes 2 series feature some unique mechanics rewarding thoughtful players. From the TrueSight™ system that emulates the units’ line of sight to the cover-system that encourages clever unit placement – not to mention the combined arms approach and the hard and soft counters gameplay that will make you think twice before trying to destroy a tank with a simple squad of riflemen – each game presents players with an uninterrupted stream of meaningful tactical choices that can turn the tide of war.
PICK YOUR FIGHT
NB: multiplayer standalones allow you to play on any map against anyone owning any COH2 product.
The original Company of Heroes 2 game gives you access to two multiplayer armies from the Eastern Front: the Red Army (SOV) and the Wehrmacht Ostheer (GER). It also comes with a gritty single-player campaign that will give you a chance to familiarize yourself with the series core tenets. Step into the boots of a Soviet commander of the Red Army, entrenched in brutal frontline warfare to free Mother Russia from the Enemy invaders! Adjust your tactics to take into account the brutal weather conditions and wield the might of the Soviet Empire as you smash your way to Berlin.
Company of Heroes 2: The Western Front Armies adds two new factions from the Western Front to the roster of playable multiplayer armies: the Oberkommando West (OKW) and the US Forces (USF). While the former puts you in charge of an aggressive and powerful army with very specialized and elite units – yet in very limited numbers – the latter introduces an expeditionary corps that allows for a variety of approaches and very powerful combined arms tactics, but which inevitably falls a bit short in the heavy armor department.
Company of Heroes 2: Ardennes Assault offers a compelling single-player campaign for the USF faction revolving around the Battle of the Bulge. Engage in a dynamic non-linear campaign across the Ardennes landscape consisting of 18 scenarios, choose between three iconic companies, customize their abilities and bear the consequences of your actions as overall company health persists between missions.
Company of Heroes 2: The British Forces is the latest entry in the series and features this iconic Allied army from WWII (UKF). Experience a unique tech-tree that challenges the player to balance the constant trade-off between mobility and defense. Surprise your opponents with your development choices and an open end game configuration. Enjoy an army with character and distinctive units & abilities, from the Churchill Crocodile flamethrower tank to the RAF glider.

While not everyone agrees with some of the design decisions taken by Relic on how the team designed Company of Heroes 2, it's still a pretty decent RTS game that pulls in over 6,000 players a day. The stand-alone Ardennes Assault expansion also represents one of the best war game experiences you can have. But it's been seven years since Company of Heroes 2 launched, and given the fact that Relic have since tried to move on to Dawn of War III and even Age of Empires 4, you'd be forgiven for think...

Back in 2006, Company of Heroes took the RTS world by storm. Arriving at an age where the genre hadn't yet been snubbed for the inferior MOBA model, the game's World War II setting and strong Saving Private Ryan/Band of Brothers vibe was extremely well received. Relic followed that critical acclaim with 2013's Company of Heroes 2, and despite its early flaws is bigger, newer, and more intricate than its predecessor. Nearly 10,000 people still play it every day, according to Steam Charts. I jumpe...
