Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts for iOS & Android – Commanding the German Panzer Elite

The upcoming Opposing Fronts expansion adds two new armies to the World War II strategy powerhouse Company of Heroes: the British 2nd Army and German Panzer Elite, each with their own full-length campaigns.

With the Wehrmacht on the back foot after D-Day, mobilise the German Panzer Elite to push back the Allied forces in Operation Market Garden. With heavily mechanised forces specialising in speed and overwhelming firepower.

Their three unique Doctrines allow commanders to empoy scorched earth tactics to control the lay of the land and force the enemy’s hand, deploy Luftwaffe air support to secure key locations, and field devastating Panzershreks and anti-tank grenades to cripple enemy vehicles.

Opposing Fronts also adds the German Panzer Elite to Skirmish mode, where players can set up their own custom battles against the AI on a variety of maps, from tight-knit, do-or-die 1v1 battles to massive 4v4 conflicts.

Opposing Fronts will be available for Company of Heroes on iOS & Android via in-app purchase on 13th April, priced £3.99 / $3.99 / €4,49 / 379 ₽. The critically acclaimed Company of Heroes is available now from the App Store or Google Play Store for £13.99 / $13.99 / €14,99 / 1 090 ₽.
