Enjoy the original award-winning Company of Heroes 2 and its expansions: The Western Front Armies, Ardennes Assault and The British Forces. Boasting an attractive price point, packing-in more than two years of continuous updates and multiplayer improvements; and also including a voucher for an extra free copy of the original Company of Heroes 2 – so that friends can easily share the fun – this special edition is the perfect entry point for newcomers into the highest rated WWII RTS franchise. COUNTLESS HOURS OF PLAY: Two fully-fledged single player campaigns: the Eastern Front and the Battle of the Bulge. Five multiplayer armies with unique and distinct playstyles and abilities. Over 50 multiplayer maps. Multiplayer modes ranging from 1v1 to 4v4, from ranked matches to custom matches. SEVERAL EXPERIENCES, ALL IN ONE GAME: From the urban warfare setting of docks and ruined cities to the rural snow-covered battlefields forcing you to keep your troops out of the freezing blizzard; from missions having you lead huge battalions of armored tanks to a small squad of snipers – enjoy the diversity of situations and gameplay mechanics, whether it be in single-player or multiplayer. BEST IN CLASS PRESENTATION: Unparalleled immersion with Essence – Relic’s tailor-made, state-of-the-art RTS engine. Key features include: advanced shading and shadowing, physically based rendering, destructible environments and realistic physics, systems simulating the impact of the environment on units (weather, line of sight, cover etc.). WHERE HISTORY MEETS GAMEPLAY: Hundreds of anecdotes, historical documents and events went on to inform the design of environments, units and missions – providing players with a comprehensive view of both fronts of the European Theater, while challenging them with a wide array of plausible tactical situations. THOUGHTFUL PLAYERS WANTED: From TrueSight™, which emulates the units’ line of sight, to the cover-system that encourages clever unit placement – not to mention the hard and soft counters that will make you think twice before trying to destroy a tank with a simple squad of riflemen – each game presents you with an uninterrupted stream of meaningful tactical choices. While the clever AI system will assist you with micro-management, the crucial choice of which units and upgrades to build and when will remain entirely yours. VIBRANT ONLINE COMMUNITY: Over 10,000,000 online matches played since launch. Challenge some of the finest strategy players in ruthless online battles! Benefit from free new maps, curated from the community’s contributions, which keep being added to the game on a regular basis.
