Company of Heroes' iOS Port Gets a Multiplayer Skirmish Mode

Company of Heroes, Relic Entertainment's acclaimed RTS title, ported to mobile by Feral Interactive, is finally getting multiplayer! A recent iOS beta update introduces the highly anticipated skirmish mode.

Relic Entertainment is known for the Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War series, but many also cherish their WWII RTS, Company of Heroes. The original mobile version lacked multiplayer, a significant omission now rectified.

The iOS Company of Heroes page reveals the exciting news: Online Skirmish Mode is available in beta. Players can now battle as various factions, including the Americans and Germans, and those from the Opposing Fronts expansion (UK and Panzer Elite).

Company of Heroes masterfully balances realistic warfare with accessible RTS gameplay. Superior units aren't a guaranteed win; tactical errors can quickly decimate your forces.

While I've always preferred AI opponents in RTS due to the skill level of some human players, this is undoubtedly great news for those who missed this crucial element in the polished iOS version.
