Relic Entertainment and SEGA Europe announced today that the critically acclaimed real-time strategy game Company of Heroes 3 will be available for PlayStation 5 on May 30, 2023. Starting from April 26, players can pre-order the physical and digital versions of the game for this platform.
This marks the first time the critically acclaimed Company of Heroes series is coming to a gaming console platform, with Relic Entertainment aiming to provide the deepest strategy game experience to fans and gamers worldwide. Console players can enjoy a customized user interface, full controller support, and special features that allow them to play at their own pace. Additionally, the user interface has been adjusted for gamepads to ensure that all players can have a fun and immersive gaming experience.
Gamepad players now have access to new features, such as Full Tactical Pause, that enable them to exercise a greater degree of tactical control over the battlefield. With this feature, players can pause the action and coordinate the movements of all their troops at the same time. This allows players to carefully consider each move without the stress of performing everything in real-time.
The narrative-driven gameplay of Company of Heroes takes players to a previously unexplored setting, introducing authentic tactics, four unique factions, and untold stories from World War II. The game's single-player modes include the turn-based Italian Dynamic Campaign, which offers a sandbox-style gameplay experience with a wide range of strategic options, and the North African desert, which provides a classic, story-driven experience. Those seeking competitive action will enjoy the game's extensive online multiplayer and co-op vs. AI modes, which feature more factions, mechanics, and units than ever before.
