Company of Heroes 3, due to come to PC in February next year, will also be getting a console release in 2023.
The announcement was made during The Game Awards, where developer Relic Entertainment revealed that Company of Heroes 3 will be coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S at a yet-unspecified date in 2023.
This marks the first time that the real-time strategy franchise will make its way to consoles, with Company of Heroes 3’s console edition being built “from the ground up” for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The console edition will include a newly designed controller scheme and a revamped user interface which will prioritise “intuitive button layouts and readability.”
Relic Entertainment also gave fans a first glimpse at console gameplay in a new trailer, focusing on a “major mission from the Italian Dynamic Campaign.”
The game will bring the Company of Heroes franchise to the Mediterranean, promising a “theatre of immense environmental variety.” Players will be able to unlock “authentic” new tactics, play four distinct factions and encounter a “wealth of untold stories” from the second World War.
