Company of Heroes 2 Expansion Pack

Released

Release Date: November 18, 2014

Singleplayer

The second stand-alone expansion for Company of Heroes 2, the game developed in 2013 by the Relic Entertainment studio. As the subtitle of the add-on suggests, in the game we return to the Western Front of World War II during the famous German counter-offensive in the Ardennes. In contrast to the first expansion that focused on multiplayer mode, this time the developers decided to concentrate on the single player campaign.

Ardennes Assault is the second major expansion for Company of Heroes 2, a real-time strategy game by Relic Entertainment. Contrary to the previous add-on, West Front Armies, Ardennes Assault focuses on the single player mode. It offers an extensive solo campaign, the eponymous Ardennes Assault, that takes place on the western front between years 1944 and 1945. Ardennes Assault is a standalone expansion that does not require the original game in order to work.

This expansion allows the players to take command of the American military fighting against the German Oberkommando West. Ardennes Assault is divided into 18 missions, which is more than the basic Company of Heroes 2 offered. The subsequent scenarios merge into a consistent story that dynamically changes on the basis of the choices we make in every phase. The players can also take control of three previously unavailable American companies that have unique officers and require a specific play style. In combat, we have limited resources at our disposal so careful planning is key. All the more so that our units gain experience and develop their fighting ability from mission to mission.

Digital Chumps: 8 / 10 by Steven McGehee

If you can overlook the price and potential early learning curve depending on your familiarity with the series, Ardennes Assault offers a very competent and compelling RTS experience.

PCGamesN: 9 / 10 by Fraser Brown

While still an RTS, Ardennes Assault takes a lot of cues from wargames. By opening it up and providing countless meaningful choices and random events, Relic has put the war in the players' hands. It's not a directed journey through a bunch of scenarios where winning is all that matters; it's a persistent struggle where failure is always nipping at the Americans' heels, where an entire company can be lost in battle, making the war seem even more desperate. It's exhausting, and the best game in the Company of Heroes series.

Hardcore Gamer: 4.5 / 5 by Bradly Storm

Company of Heroes 2: Ardennes Assault is a standalone title in the venerable franchise that is wholeheartedly worth exploring. It's hard to say if this is the definitive version of COH2, but it's the most polished and full-featured.
