Currently in development by Canadian game studio, Relic Entertainment, some details about the next COH have also been revealed. The main campaign for the RTS (Real Time Strategy) is set around the eastern front during World War II, as the player will be taking the role as the Russians, as you can see from the cover. When doesn't it snow in Russia? We can see that there will also be snow, and lots of it. Disadvantages of the snow is that it slows down vehicles and troops in the game, but the advantages are that they provide cover.

New gameplay feature will allow units to climb over cover, but limited to low walls. Eventually, a release date was also found, which is sometime in 2013.

If you're too lazy to read that paragraph, let me cut it down:

- Eastern Front, Russia
- Snow, and lots of it, helps for cover, but slows units
- Units can climb over cover
- Release in 2013

Details are limited at the moment, as further details will come in the latter months as we get closer to 2013. I can't wait to play this one, I loved playing COH Online, and playing as the Russians is going to be bad ass!

  1. RTS? So does that mean that it will be an overhead view game? I'm not familiar with COH.
