Relic tells Polygon it worked closely with Dr. In the case of British forces, that means units of soldiers drawn from throughout its colonial empire, including some 2.5 million Indian soldiers. Relic says it’s gone to the original historical documents to recreate not only the battlefield conditions present in the Mediterranean at that time, but the units in the field as well. Unlike the Combat Mission series, which uses an almost identical “WeGo” system for its turn-based mode, players will be able to modify and change those orders at any time without the simulation modeling orders and the subsequent lag of command and control. Then, players will be able to start the clock once more and watch their intentions play out in cinematic style. It will allow players to stop the action to cue up waypoints and commands for individual units. Having a specific British unit in a neighboring sector, for instance, allowed me to call in mechanized medical units to patch up my troops on the front lines.Ĭompany of Heroes 3 will also include, for the first time, a pause button. Those choices directly impacted the assets available in real-time battles. An early demo shared with the press allowed me to assault Italian cities in multiple ways, with different combinations of American and British units. Players will now have access to an overworld map representing the theater of battle.
American ships provide fire support for infantry on the ground. Company of Heroes 3 will include more of that style of gameplay, but also implements features common to turn-based franchise like the Combat Mission series and Paradox’s Hearts of Iron. The real-time strategy (RTS) franchise is well known for its small-unit AI, which allows individual soldiers to take cover and use terrain to their advantage. The original Company of Heroes was released in 2006, while its sequel was launched in 2013. Relic tells Polygon that CoH3 is still in active development, and more than a year away from release. Fans can play an early build of the game on Steam for free starting today through Aug. This time around, the World War II strategy game series will focus on the Mediterranean theater, with campaigns in Italy and North Africa.
Company of Heroes 3 is on the way from Relic Entertainment.
