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 boasts the popular Company of Heroes franchise. The original mobile version lacked multiplayer, a significant omission now rectified.
The iOS Company of Heroes page reveals the online skirmish mode beta. Players can now battle as various factions, including the Americans, Germans, British (UK), and Panzer Elite (from the Opposing Fronts expansion).
Company of Heroes masterfully blends realistic warfare with accessible RTS gameplay. Superior units aren't a guaranteed win; tactical mistakes can quickly lead to devastating losses.
While many RTS players prefer AI opponents, the skill level of some human players can be daunting. For those who missed this crucial feature in the polished iOS version, the addition of multiplayer is undoubtedly welcome news.
