"Company of Heroes iOS Port Launches Multiplayer Skirmish Mode"
Company of Heroes, the acclaimed real-time strategy (RTS) title originally developed by Relic Entertainment and ported to mobile by Feral Interactive, is finally introducing a long-awaited feature—multiplayer gameplay. Recent updates in the iOS beta have revealed the inclusion of Skirmish Mode, a highly anticipated addition that brings online competitive play to the palm of your hand.
Drawing inspiration from the real-world military forces of World War II, players can now engage in head-to-head battles as iconic factions such as the Americans, Germans, British Forces (UK), and the Panzer Elite from the Opposing Fronts expansion. This update not only expands the game’s replayability but also deepens its strategic layers, giving fans the chance to test their tactical prowess against human opponents.
What sets Company of Heroes apart is its unique blend of authentic WWII combat mechanics and accessible RTS gameplay. Victory isn’t solely determined by unit cost or numbers—it's about smart positioning, terrain use, and tactical decisions. One poorly placed squad can be wiped out in seconds, while a well-coordinated assault can turn the tide of battle.
For those who’ve been holding off on diving into the mobile version due to the absence of multiplayer, this beta rollout of Online Skirmish Mode marks a significant milestone. It completes what was already a polished and faithful adaptation of the PC classic, making it an even more compelling experience for both newcomers and longtime fans.
