Company of Heroes, the acclaimed World War II real-time strategy (RTS) game from Relic Entertainment and ported by Feral Interactive, is finally getting multiplayer! A recent iOS beta update introduces the highly anticipated skirmish mode.
Relic Entertainment, known for the Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War series, also holds a special place in many gamers' hearts for its Company of Heroes franchise. The original mobile port lacked multiplayer, a significant omission now rectified.
The iOS Company of Heroes page proudly announces the arrival of online skirmish mode in beta. Players can now engage in strategic battles using factions inspired by real-world WWII militaries, including Americans, Germans, British (UK), and Panzer Elite (from the Opposing Fronts expansion).
Company of Heroes cleverly balances realistic warfare with enjoyable RTS gameplay. Superior unit cost doesn't guarantee victory; tactical mistakes can quickly decimate exposed infantry or leave tanks vulnerable.
While some players excel at unit micromanagement and strategic build orders, the addition of multiplayer is a welcome boost for fans of the iOS version.
