Sega and developer Relic Entertainment have revealed that Company of Heroes 3 will let players take up a spot of war with the inclusion of the British army to the game. Available as one of four factions at launch, the British are defensive powerhouses with plenty of depth for series newcomers and veterans alike, check out the new trailer for them below.

Fully revamped for the new game, the biggest strength for the British and anyone who seeks to control them, either in single player or multiplayer, is their versatility in almost any combat scenario. With resilience (and a bit of stubbornness), their Pack Howitzer cannons, 4.2 Heavy Mortar cannons, and 6-Pounder Anti-Tank Gun can hold off the Germans in droves. An assortment of vehicles, like the Dingo Scout Car and the Humber armoured car, can slice through enemy lines in the opening stages of combat.

A well-rounded fighting force isn’t complete without a number of Battlegroups: specialised units that each faction can call upon for specific tactics. The British can utilise the Nepali and Indian soldiers of the Gurkha, brandishing Thompson submachine or Bren light machine guns, making them deadly at close and long range. Indian artillery rounds things out with explosive indirect firepower. These Battlegroups synergise with the core faction units, delivering the most strategically diverse Company of Heroes launch to date.

The game is coming to PC on February 23rd, so about a month away, while console players will need to wait a few more months and then a few more, as it won’t arrive on Xbox Series X|S or PlayStation 5 until much later in the year.
