Introducing The Mechanised Might Of The Deutsches Afrikakorps In Company of Heroes 3

Hello there! We’re excited to show players our fourth and final trailer in a series of faction reveals for Company of Heroes 3. In today’s video, players can find out more about the highly anticipated Deutsches Afrikakorps and their arsenal of mobile, mechanised weaponry and vehicles. Debuting in both single-player and multiplayer, the Afrika Korps were infamous for their prowess in the North African deserts.

The Afrikakorps is the most radical and unorthodox army in the game and will suit players who like to play aggressively and keep the pressure on the enemy, benefitting greatly from the synergy between its specialised infantry and armoured vehicle roster. Afrikakorps players can use the Half-track to quickly deploy troops to respond to new threats or sustain the offensive, while the versatile Panzer III is the workhorse tank of the army. The Armored Reserves system allows for the deployment of the dread-inducing Tiger Tank and other heavily armoured options. In the harsh deserts of North Africa, the Afrikakorps also had to rely on their vehicle-towing capabilities to reposition their anti-tank Flak 36 88mm cannon or repair damaged tanks.

Like all factions in Company of Heroes 3, the Afrikakorps come rounded out with their own assortment of supporting Battlegroups to tackle unique battlefield scenarios. The Italian Guastatori, clad in all-black uniforms, wield deadly flamethrowers to strike fear into the hearts of their enemies. The Italian Combined Arms Battlegroup lets you field some impressive units, such as the highly effective Semovente da 75/18 Assault Gun, the elite Bersaglieri infantry, and the quick striking Carro Armato M13/40 Light Tank.

Company of Heroes 3 is coming to PC on 23rd February and is available for Pre-Order! Get the Launch Edition and receive the Devil’s Brigade DLC pack featuring Legendary skins for Infantry, Vehicles, and other Legendary tier cosmetics.
