Company of Heroes: Skirmish Mode Now Live for iOS

Company of Heroes, Relic Entertainment's acclaimed RTS title, now boasts multiplayer capabilities thanks to Feral Interactive's iOS port! A recent beta update introduces the highly anticipated skirmish mode.

Relic Entertainment, renowned for the Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War series, also holds a special place in the hearts of many for their WWII RTS, Company of Heroes. The original mobile version lacked multiplayer, a significant omission now rectified.

The iOS Company of Heroes page reveals the exciting news: Online Skirmish Mode is available in beta! Players can now engage in strategic combat, choosing from factions inspired by real-world WWII militaries, including Americans, Germans, British, and Panzer Elite (from the Opposing Fronts expansion).

Company of Heroes masterfully blends realistic warfare with accessible RTS gameplay. Superior units aren't a guaranteed victory; tactical errors can quickly decimate exposed infantry or leave tanks vulnerable.

While I've always preferred AI opponents in RTS due to the impressive skill of some human players, this multiplayer addition is a significant win for fans who missed this crucial element in the polished iOS version.
