Company of Heroes Adds Skirmish to iOS

Company of Heroes, Relic Entertainment's acclaimed real-time strategy (RTS) game, ported by Feral Interactive, is finally getting multiplayer! A recent iOS beta update introduces the highly anticipated skirmish mode. Prepare for intense battles with factions inspired by World War II's iconic militaries.

While Relic Entertainment is known for the Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War series, many appreciate their Company of Heroes WWII RTS franchise. The original mobile release lacked multiplayer, a significant omission now rectified.

The iOS Company of Heroes page announces the arrival of online skirmish mode as a beta feature. Players can engage in head-to-head combat using factions like the Americans and Germans, or the UK and Panzer Elite from the Opposing Fronts expansion.

Company of Heroes masterfully blends realistic warfare with accessible RTS gameplay. Superior units don't guarantee victory; tactical errors can quickly decimate your forces. A poorly positioned infantry squad or a vulnerable tank can easily be overwhelmed.

A Hero's Return

I've always preferred facing AI in RTS games, as some human players possess incredible build order mastery and micromanagement skills. For those who missed this crucial feature in the polished iOS version, this multiplayer beta is a welcome addition.
