Welcome to the latest letter from the Producer.
Just a quick update to let everyone know what the team is working on!
Since our launch, we’ve patched the game several times - tuning game balance, fixing bugs, adding new features and of course, more maps! The new maps (Langreska and Semoskiy) both have summer and winter variants and were inspired by 2 of COH1’s original fan favorites. The team has more classic remakes underway in addition to some brand new maps that are scheduled to be released over the coming months.
We’ve also been prepping for the v1.0 release of our map editing tool, AKA World Builder, which will be free and enable our very talented modding community to start showing off their skills!
Later this month, we will be unveiling the first update to Theater of War mode, adding a new mini-pack set in 1942, that shows part of the war from a German perspective. This mini-pack will be free of charge for all Collector’s Edition, Digital Collector’s Edition and eligible pre-order customers. It will also be available to purchase on Steam for anyone who didn’t pre-order or buy a CE. Players can also opt to upgrade to the Digital Collector’s Edition and this mini-pack will be included for free.
Last but not least I’m pleased to announce we are working on an update patch for COH1 on Steam that we hope will address many issues that arose from the original port. The foundational server work being done on COH1 will also be used for future COH2 enhancements – more info to come on that in the near future!
On behalf of the team, I’d like to thank the community for their support over the recent months. We’re still in the infancy of COH2’s life cycle are committed to working with our amazing fan-base to help make COH2 the best it can be!
See you online!
