This weekend, players can dive into Company of Heroes 3, completely free through Monday. The game also offers a 50% discount until Thursday, making this an ideal moment for newcomers to check out this RTS title.

Historically, Company of Heroes games have been noted for their strategic gameplay and immersive campaigns. The latest installment includes a free-form Italian campaign as well as a traditional North African campaign, both allowing players to engage in battles across varied terrains.

The recently released 2.0 update has addressed several issues, primarily improving the Italian campaign which was criticized at launch. The update brings new maps and significant adjustments, making for a more balanced multiplayer experience.

Critics and the gaming community have responded positively, with many praising the improvements made since the launch, viewing it as a considerable evolution following the initial response to Company of Heroes 3. With the game now rated mostly positive, this may signal a revival for Relic after a challenging period.
