Game information

Company of Heroes is a WWII Real Time Strategy game that brings to life the journey of the brave men of Able Company as they fight across Europe in the greatest war mankind has ever known.

Developed by Relic, the studio behind Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War, Company of Heroes is an explosive game, with real-time physics, destructible terrain, advanced AI and cutting edge visuals.

We had the chance to play a work-in-progress build of the game at a recent press event, and came away very impressed.

Company of Heroes is released by THQ exclusively for the PC on September 29, 2006.
