'Company of Heroes 2' Open Beta Extended

by Rainier on June 19, 2013 @ 11:53 a.m. PDT

Company of Heroes 2 is an RTS game that moves the battle away from the common Western Front focus of World War II and refocuses on some of history’s most brutal and devastating conflicts on the Eastern Front.

It is 1941 and the beginning of what will become the most brutal conflict of World War II, as Germany launches a full-scale invasion of the frozen tundra of the Soviet Union which would result in over 14 million military casualties. Take command of the iconic Soviet Red Army in brutal frontline warfare to free Mother Russia from the invading Nazis.

Your strategic skills and tactical expertise hold the power to tip the very balance of this conflict in the sequel to the critically acclaimed and multi award-winning Company of Heroes. Engage in visceral tactical combat that will define you as a military leader and challenge you to wield the might of the Soviet Empire as you smash your way to Berlin.

Following overwhelming demand, Relic Entertainment will be extending the Open Beta for Company of Heroes 2 until midnight PDT on Sunday, June 23.

During this extended phase, additional multiplayer maps will be added to the rotation for players to test and enjoy. The full progression tree has also been unlocked, allowing players to work all the way up to level 100 and unlock additional content along the way.

Relic will also be hosting a double XP weekend for all beta players on June 22 and 23.  During this time any game played through automatch will earn double the normal post match experience.

Players who purchase the full game and play it within 60 days on the same steam account as the beta will retain all progression earned during the Open Beta.
