Company of Heroes 20th Anniversary Definitive Edition

Two decades ago, a single title changed the landscape of real-time strategy gaming forever. The Company of Heroes franchise, released in 2006, didn’t just create a game; it redefined what RTS could be, pushing the boundaries and propelling the genre into an exciting new era.

Now, as the series celebrates its 20th anniversary, Relic Entertainment is preparing to bring this legendary world into the modern age. The company is set to release the highly anticipated Company of Heroes — Definitive Edition in September.

This isn’t just a simple remaster; it’s a full modernization effort designed to respect the original vision while embracing contemporary PC hardware. The goal for the Definitive Edition is clear: keep all the classic charm and strategic depth intact, but refresh the experience to deliver stunning visuals and smooth performance tailored for today’s players.

Beyond updating the core game, fans can look forward to richer content. The Definitive Edition will include beloved expansions such as Opposing Fronts and Tales of Valor, adding more depth and narrative to the already compelling campaign.

While the focus is on honoring the past, Relic Entertainment is already busy building the future. They are simultaneously working on the next major installment, Company of Heroes 3, signaling that the legacy of Company of Heroes is far from over.
