"Company of Heroes iOS Port Launches Multiplayer Skirmish Mode"

Fans of the acclaimed RTS game, Company of Heroes, developed by Relic Entertainment and ported by Feral Interactive, have something exciting to look forward to: the introduction of multiplayer! Previously, the mobile version of this World War II-themed classic was missing this key feature, but that's all changed with the recent iOS beta release.

The iOS page for Company of Heroes now boasts the addition of the much-anticipated Online Skirmish Mode as a beta feature. This new mode allows players to engage in thrilling battles with others, choosing from factions inspired by real-life WWII militaries, such as the Americans, Germans, and the expanded UK and Panzer Elite factions included in the Opposing Fronts expansion.

Company of Heroes is celebrated for its unique blend of realistic warfare and engaging RTS gameplay. It's not just about deploying the most powerful units; strategic missteps can lead to devastating losses, with infantry vulnerable to open-field ambushes and tanks susceptible to well-placed shots in their weak spots.

There goes my (Company of) Hero(es)

While I personally enjoyed challenging the AI due to the intense competition from highly skilled players with precise build orders and unit micromanagement, the absence of multiplayer in the polished iOS version was a notable gap. For those who have been eagerly awaiting this feature, its introduction marks a significant milestone.
