Company of Heroes 3 showcases the mechanized might of the Deutsches Afrikakorps

The new trailer for Company of Heroes 3, introducing the highly anticipated Deutsches Afrikakorps and their arsenal of mobile and mechanized vehicles and weapons. Debuting in both single player and multiplayer, the Afrika Korps were renowned for their prowess in the deserts of North Africa.

The Afrikakorps is the most radical and unorthodox army in the game, perfect for players who like to play aggressively and keep the pressure on the enemy, greatly benefiting from the synergy between their specialized infantry and armored vehicle roster. Afrikakorps players can use the Half-track to quickly deploy troops to respond to new threats or sustain the offensive, while the versatile Panzer III is the workhorse tank of the army. The Armored Reserves system allows for the deployment of the Tiger Tank and other heavily armored options. In the harsh deserts of North Africa, the Afrikakorps also had to rely on its vehicle towing capabilities to reposition its 88mm Flak 36 anti-tank gun or repair damaged tanks.

Like all factions in Company of Heroes 3, the Afrikakorps is complete with its own variety of support battlegroups to tackle unique battlefield scenarios. Clad in all-black uniforms, Italian Guastatori wield deadly flamethrowers to strike fear into the hearts of their enemies. Or use the Italian Combined Arms Battlegroup, which allows for some impressive units to be fielded, such as the highly effective Semovente da 75/18 Assault Gun, the elite Bersaglieri infantry, and the fast-attack Carro Armato M13/40 light tank.
