Company of Heroes 3’s Operation Torch DLC ships off to North Africa in November, for new missions based around the Allied landings
Company of Heroes 3 is receiving new DLC titled Operation Torch, launching on November 25th. The expansion introduces a single-player campaign set during World War II’s 1942 Allied invasion of North Africa, one of the most pivotal moments in the war’s North African theater.
The DLC focuses on American forces and covers the historical Operation Torch, the joint British-American invasion of Vichy France-controlled Algeria and Morocco. Players will command American units through a campaign that spans multiple phases: the initial invasion landings, the significant Allied defeat at Kasserine, and the subsequent final assault on Hill (the original article excerpt is truncated).
The expansion emphasizes tactical gameplay and unit management, requiring players to strategically upgrade and develop their fighting units throughout the campaign to overcome increasingly difficult encounters. The design balances historical authenticity with challenging tactical scenarios, providing both educational value regarding WWII’s North African campaign and demanding strategic gameplay that tests commanders’ tactical abilities.
