Company of Heroes 3 on Windows

Hello everyone, you can download Company of Heroes 3 for Windows 11 and experience playing a game that launched with somewhat of a disappointment feeling from gamers but lucky for us, the developers have continued to update the game and fix the big issues.

How to install Company of Heroes 3 on Windows

In order to install this game on your Windows OS whether that be Windows 11 or Windows 10, just follow the instructions below.

1. Choose where you want to download the game from:
   • Download it from Steam
2. Once you are done downloading it, click the Company of Heroes 3 icon on your desktop or start menu and enjoy.

With that out of the way, you can now dive in to see if this game actually worth your time and money. I just downloaded this game last week and I finally made time to play it today and well I personally love it, these action RTS games are usually my favorite games to play on my PC, I can literally spend 5+ hours a day playing them for months without an issue and I have a feeling this is what is about to happen with me with CoH3(Company of Heroes 3). I have played the previous games by the same developers, Company Heroes and Companies of Heroes 2, both are classics to me and I am always one of the first people to recommend the games to friends. With that said, CoH3 really impressed me with the way the developers, Relic Entertainment, who a long with the game publishers, SEGA, have both continued to put in money to fix the many issues and bugs that almost doomed the game when it first was released back in February 2023. I for one I am glad they have not given up on this game despite the ‘mixed’ reviews on their official Steam page.

In this new installment of the Company of Heroes franchise, the game is based around lower region of Europe(Italy) and the North African desert area(of course new maps and campaigns are being added as time goes). Thes game keeps the intense strategy and combat the series is famous for. In Italy, you’ll fight in cities and mountains, making you change how you play depending on the area. The deserts in North Africa are wide open, making fights with vehicles really important, I loved using tanks and having what I call a fake assault that would go in first with a smaller tank and tons of units while my main force would come in from behind with my elite special forces guys and of course the big tanks, I am not a military history guy by any stretch of the imagination so I don’t know what you call this particular strategy but hey, it is working so far, especially on multiplayer, go figure.

The new tactical pause that allows you to pause and set up a strategy

As you can see from the animated gif above, I love the newly introduced tactical pause that allows to actually plan out a different strategy in the middle of the war instead of being stuck with what you already set to do a few seconds or minutes before. This is more realistic because in real-life war or battles, you have to change strategies on the fly.

Pros:

• Deep strategic options: Dynamic campaign map fosters strategic decision-making, tactical pause allows for mid-battle planning, and diverse faction mechanics offer distinct playstyles.
• Enhanced visuals and destruction: Stunning environments, realistic unit animations, and impressive destructible buildings create a truly immersive battlefield.
• Improved unit veterancy: Veterancy rewards skillful play, offering powerful upgrades and unique abilities that personalize your favorite squads.

Cons:

• Uneven AI performance: AI can be surprisingly aggressive in some situations and frustratingly passive in others, impacting single-player enjoyment.
• Occasional balance issues: Certain units or abilities might feel overpowered, leading to potentially unfair advantages in multiplayer.
• Limited late-game content: While early-game campaigns and skirmishes are engaging, some players find the late-game options lacking in variety and challenge.

What is Company of Heroes 3 game about?
