After so long without a new game in the series, there’s a natural expectation for Relic to make some big leaps forward and define what Company of Heroes will be going forward. That might be disappointing to some, and that’s understandable. In other words, if you’ve played either of the first two games you’ll be able to quickly grasp all the basics in Company of Heroes 3 in seconds.

Company of Heroes 3 is very good at times.

Once a bastion of the RTS genre thanks to massive successes like Dawn of War and the original Company of Heroes, Relic has crumbled in recent years, their sterling reputation now resembling a building hammered by a mortar barrage.
