A “cinematic WW2 masterpiece” that combines its single player content with a solid base for lengthy multiplayer action. There have also been tests from Germany, for example from the German Eurogamer offshoot. This provides Company of Heroes 3 with 90 points, a game recommendation is of course also published.
“The limited units available and the exciting battles tie me to the screen once again. I never know what awaits me around the next corner, whether a counterattack might not suddenly roll in after the task has been completed, for which I have to prepare at lightning speed. The Gameplay is adrenaline-pumping, requires tactical savvy, and the handy new pause feature helps keep your head a little cooler in battle.” – Benjamin Jakobs from Eurogamer Germany

So far there have also been two mixed ratings, but they still get 70 points. The criticisms given here are that Company of Heroes 3 has a bloated and unfinished campaign that doesn’t really fit with the core ideas of Company of Heroes. In addition, players who know the series and have hoped for a major evolution compared to the predecessor could be disappointed, because such a stay in the third part.
