What Company of Heroes 3 factions will be playable? Interestingly, we've also heard that the selection of Italy as a setting was a choice made by the player council Relic is working with.

'So the players are going to go through and play each mission one after the other and experience that whole story start to finish as we tell it to them.' 'The North African operation is a linear story,' senior mission designer David Milne told me during its reveal. The North African campaign is a more straightforward RTS campaign than the open map of Italy. What I could have done in four hours took me 11.

I played through a small slice where I had to take Monte Cassino, giving me a road to Rome, but along with my main objective were countless other battles, side missions and territory to conquer. We've only seen Italy, and it seems massive. You'll duke it out in a campaign set across Italy, and North Africa has now been confirmed as well, where you'll conquer territory, get into skirmishes and fight bespoke battles.

After fighting through the Western and Eastern Fronts, Company of Heroes is now heading to the Mediterranean.
