Relic Entertainment have announced that a new DLC pack is on its way for Company of Heroes 3. Called Fire & Steel, it will add a host of new maps for players to battle upon, check out the new trailer for it below.
The Fire & Steel DLC is a battlegroup pack, contained within are four new maps, which support multiplayer, co-op matches, and skirmishes against the AI. Here are the details for each of the maps, as provided by Relic.
US Forces – Heavy Weapons Battlegroup
Superior team weapons and halftracks control the battlefield before heavy armour arrives to finish the fight.
Requisition .50 cal heavy machine guns or off-map batteries of the devastating Black Dragon howitzer as part of Weapons Team support, or call in the Cavalry, with Assault half-track variants, 3-inch towed Anti-tank guns, and the implacable M26 Pershing heavy tank.
Wehrmacht – Terror Battlegroup
Shatter the enemy’s willpower with airstrikes, suppression and superior infantry tactics. Devastating heavy weapons will destroy anything that remains standing.
Use unorthodox Terror Tactics such as field interrogations, the Stuka’s iconic Jericho Trumpet, or V1 Rocket Strikes to force the enemy from the field, or show the enemy no quarter with Weapon Superiority and the King Tiger heavy tank.
British Forces – Canadian Shock Battlegroup
Seize territory to gain unparalleled momentum on the battlefield, and deploy powerful incendiary weapons to displace any who dare deny your movement.
Call upon Canadian Shock Sections and aggressive battlefield tactics to secure ground in a Shock Assault, or deny the enemy what they stubbornly refuse to cede with Incendiary Weapons, including the indefatigable Churchill Crocodile.
Afrikakorps – Panzerjäger Kommand Battlegroup
Cripple the enemy’s advance with defensive obstacles, enabling powerful anti-armour weapons to make the killing blow.
Use Stalling tactics, including Roadblocks, Minefields and Defensive Positions to buy the time you need to deploy your forces; elite Tank Busters and Tank Hunting tactics including the Elefant Tank Destroyer will crush even the strongest enemy armour.
The DLC is expected to release this month, with the team hosting a special presentation on Twitch at 3am on February 14, to dive into it. You can watch it here, if you want to be up early.
