Company of Heroes 2 Critic Reviews

shining example of what an RTS game should be: a mix of classic mechanics with new features and technology.

These gripes really do pale in comparison to the overall achievement of a sequel that is absolutely well worth the wait. Even now, I can’t wait to finish this review and sink some more hours into the multiplayer which, coming from an avid admirer of the original games, is testament to how well Relic Entertainment has made a game for the fans, but also presented a whole lot more.

A beyond competent, gorgeous, and well-crafted World War II strategy game. It may very well be the best WWII strategy game ever produced. It is, however, a game for those who already enjoy the genre, and particularly for those entranced by Company of Heroes’ hallmark approach to combat.

Relic has taken one of the greatest strategy games of the last 10 years and given it a brilliant new coat of paint while subtly refining the rock-solid mechanics and gameplay.

If nothing else, Company of Heroes 2 proves that Relic really is in the top eschelon of RTS developers. This is the crème de la crème, people. Do not be the one to pass it up.

An amazingly deep and challenging RTS that will keep even veterans of the genre on their toes. Relic's latest work brings true strategy to the table, even if it neglects inexperienced players in doing so.

He who does not sweat through at least a T-shirt in an online game of Company of Heroes 2 has already lost or has a downright frosty soul.

Even though Company of Heroes 2 has some issues, the fact is this: it's a truly great game. Evolutionary changes made by the developers turned out to be an excellent choice. Fans of the original Company of Heroes are getting the same game, but superior in every way (and enriched with some cool new things). Relic's game is a must have for dynamic strategy game enthusiasts - it is the best RTS set during WWII.

If you like real-time strategy games, or if you enjoyed the first one, this is a game you can't miss. It's not a revolution, but it polishes the original experience.

It’s an strong addition to the genre, and does a fine job building upon the foundation set by the lauded Company of Heroes.

For Company of Heroes veterans, Company of Heroes 2 feels a little like coming home.

A beautiful, dynamic, unforgiving and remarkably snowy RTS that perfectly showcases the absolute hell that was the Eastern Front.

Real-time strategy doesn't get much better than this.

Almost everything that I loved about the first Company of Heroes is back in the sequel and done even better. It’s been a long time since I played such a stunning and addictive RTS.

Company of Heroes 2 is an awesome RTS game. A shining example of one of the best PC games this year.

Company of Heroes 2 is a must have game for real-time strategy genre, a title that all fans of the genre should have on your computer, and probably a game that every curious gamer should try.

They story disappoints, but the game delights with a huge variety of different levels and a well-balanced learning curve that challenges new and old players alike. Additionally, new tactical options and micromanagement keep the game interesting.

RTS fans cannot miss a sequel true to the original and well crafted, though not perfect.

Company of Heroes 2 is a solid RTS that will capture your attention from the beginning. Its fun and immersing gameplay guarantees that you will come back several times to fulfill the challenges and unlock the more than 300 achievements it has to offer.

Company of Heroes 2 focuses more on online gameplay than a single-player driven experience. War on the Eastern Front is just as chaotic as it was in the West, but the addition of environmental factors adds a new level of depth that players will also have to tackle. Realistic combat coupled with a multiplayer mode that delivers will keep you charging the fields for an extended period of time.
