Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts is a World War II real-time strategy game built around two opposing campaigns. Players lead the British 2nd Army in the liberation of Caen, France, or take command of the German Panzer Elite as it tries to repel the Allied airborne invasion in Operation Market Garden. The setting frames each campaign as a struggle over strategic objectives, rather than a single army’s march through the war.
Its two forces have distinct command trees and unit upgrades, while mission persistence and dynamic weather shape the battlefield design. The listing also highlights enhanced vehicle tactics, giving players another tactical consideration alongside army composition and battlefield objectives. In multiplayer, Opposing Fronts can be combined with the original Company of Heroes to bring four playable armies online, including mixed-force combinations such as British artillery with American armor.
Counts describe activity at a moment in time, while the game’s format explains what players can do in those modes.
