In an all-new video, Relic Entertainment describes how authenticity and realism have brought the battlefield to life and how they have evolved these key pillars for Company of Heroes 3.
The legendary strategy franchise is back, combining heart-pounding combat with new layers of strategy in a breathtaking Mediterranean setting. Company of Heroes 3 is coming to PC in 2022, bringing the series’ intimate boots-on-the-ground storytelling to a brand-new theatre of war. In an all-new video, Relic Entertainment describes how authenticity and realism have brought the battlefield to life and how they have evolved these key pillars for Company of Heroes 3.
To create a truly authentic experience, the Relic team took inspiration from their conversations with historians, watching countless hours of WWII documentaries, and reading technical diaries from that time. For Company of Heroes 3, the studio has also created a unique system called “Paper Doll”, where items in the game are designed in a more modular way, so each outfit or tank can easily be customized to look different from one another and therefore feel more authentic.
