Company of Heroes 2 Is Free on Steam This Weekend
If you pick up Company of Heroes 2 on Steam this weekend, it will be yours to keep. Released in 2013, Company of Heroes 2 is a World War II-themed real-time strategy. Unlike the 2006 original game where players controlled U.S. military during the Battle of Normandy and the liberation of France, the sequel focuses on the Eastern Front and commanding units of the Soviet Red Army. Besides the Company of Heroes 2 base game, you can also snatch the Company of Heroes 2: Ardennes Assault expansion pack. In Ardennes Assault, you play as the USF and you battle the OKW forces in Belgium.
