May 2025
Bought it in 2006. It’s now 2025. Still launching it like it’s D-Day. Company of Heroes isn’t just a game—it’s a lifestyle. The sound of MG42s, the crunch of tank tracks, the “They’re flanking us!” panic... it never gets old. Somehow, it still looks and feels amazing after all these years, like the fine wine of RTS games—with a side of shrapnel. ✔️ Explosions that feel right ✔️ Tactics that actually matter ✔️ Soldiers yell things that are unintentionally hilarious under pressure ❌ Occasionally forgets you told that squad to retreat, and now they’re... gone. A perfect mix of realism, strategy, and "oh crap, where did my anti-tank go?" chaos. Still the GOAT of WW2 RTS. Install it again—you know you want to.

FYI this review is about the single-player campaign. Never mind the WW2 setting, if you like real-time strategy or strategy in general, this is definitely a must-play. History buffs will appreciate the attention to detail and many nods to WW2 media such as Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan, as it portrays in part the efforts of the 101st Airborne during WW2. It's really nice to not worry about resource farming and just focus on combat. You generate resources by capturing territory, which is something you would be doing anyway. The infantry units are made up of squads which you control in their entirety instead of by individual units, and their AI makes them take cover, go prone while under suppressive fire, etc. Lots of variety in units and everything has a purpose, even builder units are effective (e.g., American engineers can use flamethrowers which are great against infantry and buildings).

I originally played this when I was in high school. Now that I am older although I am a bit better, I just don't have the brain energy to multitask this much. RTS as a genre kinda a died for me. Too much multi tasking. I prefer turn based games now as you can take your time and think it through. The game is great though. One of the best RTS games out there. Aged well. Would recommend even after 20 years.
