Evaluation

Company of Heroes - Legacy Edition is a preserved historical version of the original 2007 game. In November 2017, Relic Entertainment formally renamed this listing to "Legacy Edition" to distinguish it from the actively maintained "Company of Heroes" app (Steam App 228200), which is the version players should use for online play and mod support. The Legacy Edition exists primarily to preserve access for players using older mods and to retain the original game's review history, which is tied to this app in Steam's back-end. The developer has explicitly directed all ongoing online play and community activity to the separate "Company of Heroes" app. The last meaningful update to this specific listing was the June 2017 patch that added Steam Workshop support and Trading Cards. No further content, patches, or development activity has been communicated for the Legacy Edition since the November 2017 renaming post. This app is intentionally maintained as a static legacy build — it is complete by design.
Evidence
Relic officially renamed this app to 'Company of Heroes - Legacy Edition' and directed all online play and future updates to the separate 'Company of Heroes' app. The Legacy Edition is retained solely to preserve access for players with old mods and to keep the original review history intact.

DESCRIPTION

Delivering a visceral WWII gaming experience, Company of Heroes redefines real time strategy gaming by bringing the sacrifice of heroic soldiers, war-ravaged environments, and dynamic battlefields to life. Beginning with the D-Day Invasion of Normandy, players lead squads of Allied soldiers into battle against the German war machine through some of the most pivotal battles of WWII. Through a rich single player campaign, players experience the cinematic intensity and bravery of ordinary soldiers thrust into extraordinary events.

  • A Cinematic Single Player Experience that captures the turmoil of WWII as never before.
  • Advanced squad AI brings your soldiers to life as they interact with the changing environment, take cover, and execute advanced squad tactics to eliminate all enemy opposition.
  • Stunning Visuals - Relic's next generation cutting-edge engine provides graphic quality and a physics driven world that is unprecedented in an RTS.
  • Environmental Strategy - Real-time physics and a completely destructible environment guarantee no two battles ever play out in the same way. Destroy anything and re-shape the battlefield! Use buildings and terrain to your advantage, or deny them to the enemy.
  • 2-8 Player Multiplayer Competition via LAN or Internet - Go online with friends and join the ultimate battle of Axis versus Allies.
