A new developer diary for Company of Heroes 3 is here and its a destructive one

Sega and developer Relic Entertainment have released a new developer diary for Company of Heroes 3, that delves into the world of destruction, a common by product of any war. Watch the video below.

Just how deep does environmental destruction go in Company of Heroes 3?

“I have a feeling there will be many people who will end up playing, and they will press tactical pause just to turn the screen a little bit to take advantage of seeing all the destruction and all of its glory in that one frame,” says Jason Brackman, Principal Technical Artist at Relic.

Falling debris and collapsing buildings can now actually spell doom for nearby units. However, toppled buildings can also provide new tactical advantages, allowing players to carve out a new piece of cover. Players can even pre-destroy a map with tactical bombing runs, further altering your strategy and options on the battlefield.

There is currently no set date for its release, but it is a PC only game, at least for now.
