"Company of Heroes 2 is a true successor, introducing a new front, new protagonists and new technology while retaining the unique mix of strategic gameplay and competitive multiplayer that made the original Company of Heroes such a success," Producer Greg Wilson said in a statement.

Relic's proprietary Essence 3.0 Engine will bring the game to life, with enhanced graphics, an added level of environmental destruction, and two additional features I know nothing about but love the sound of: Dynamic Battle Tactics and Commander Abilities.

The CoH 2 synopsis from Relic:
It is 1941 and the beginning of what will become the most brutal conflict of World War II, as Germany launches a full-scale invasion of the frozen tundra of the Soviet Union which would result in over 14 million military casualties. Take command of the iconic Soviet Red Army in brutal frontline warfare to free Mother Russia from the invading Nazis. Your strategic skills and tactical expertise hold the power to tip the very balance of this conflict in the sequel to the critically acclaimed and multi award-winning Company of Heroes. Engage in visceral tactical combat that will define you as a military leader and challenge you to wield the might of the Soviet Empire as you smash your way to Berlin.

[3rdCondor]

It might be progressive.

[Unkn0wn]

Of course it will be progressive, do you honestly think they would make CoH 2 and not have T34s, or Tigers?

[3rdCondor]

The Elder Scrolls: Battlefield Stalingrad, Modern Call of Company Of Heroes 2 Bad Company.

bring on the dlc

[Tymathee]

if you saw the pcgameruk images, it looks like they'll have multiple t-34's. Maybe they'll have progressive upgrades that when u research tech, it gives u a diff tank. t-34 a, b, c etc etc. same for p4.

Read the article... Dynamic snow physics blown around by explosions...
BACK ON BOARD BABY, WOOOOO! 

(Totally serious, flowing enviormental effects like sand and snow impresses the living hell out of me, I and many others really just played from dust to play with sand  )


Well, that and the dev in the interview said that while Dow2 did well they dont think a lot of stuff they did there would fit in a WWII CoH sequel... So my fears are put at ease for now.
SO HYPE TRAIN, COH2 WOOO!

I swear the translation for the Russian text under the original announcement page said something like that.

[LeoPhone]

that was for 7 may today...

[Vermillion_Hawk]

My cyrillic is poor at best, but they also said in the official announcement that it's scheduled for an early 2013 release towards the end of it.

[TheVolskinator]

"Company of Heroes 2 is scheduled to be available for PC in early 2013. Keep checking back for more information"

[Demon767]

Well, atleast Eastern fail will be shown how to properly put Russians into Vcoh
