What is Company of Heroes 3?

A World War II real-time strategy game set across Italy and North Africa. You command units in real-time battles using cover, flanking, elevation, and building breaches, while the campaign layer adds supply lines and ground, air, and naval decisions. It includes two campaigns, skirmishes, and PvP or co-op play across four factions.

For you if...

+you enjoy tactical RTS combat built around cover and flanking
+you want solo campaigns, skirmishes, online PvP, and co-op
+you like managing a campaign beyond individual battles

Not for you if...

−you prefer turn-based strategy over real-time unit control
−you want storytelling to take priority over tactical systems
−you expect every battlegroup to come with the base game
