But, there is also more on offer, as leading an assault into Axis operated Italy means you'll have to conquer a lot of ground, claiming a broad range of objectives along the way, which is why the overarching campaign map is crucial. What does this mean? Well, battles aren't fought in France, Belgium or Germany, instead we're in charge of pressing into Italy from the south, using various tactics to claim strategic points on a dynamic campaign map.Ĭompany of Heroes 3 is bringing back its traditional real-time strategy gameplay, and that is a very important part of the title that we'll touch on further in a moment.
The main difference with Company of Heroes 3 however, is that the game won't be taking place on the Western Front, but rather in the Mediterranean, meaning the campaign and the battles will be based around Italy and northern Africa for the most part. Alike previous Company of Heroes games, the third iteration of the series takes place in World War 2, and follows the allies as they look to move through Europe pushing back the Axis forces.
