There’s been a lot happening in the world of Company of Heroes, and we wanted to cover all of it here. Let’s not waste any time and just get right to it!
NEWS
Brass Leopard
This week we released the Brass Leopard (1.1.5) update for PC. You can find a high-level overview of the update in our Brass Leopard Mission Briefing, or dive into the Patch Notes for all the details. If you're in a hurry, check out our video summary below.
As always, if you’re encountering any technical issues or bugs, be sure to report it to our team by filling out this form here. This ensures our team will see the issue and we can get it into our system for review. You can also find our current list of PC Known Issues here.
Our team is preparing hot fix 1.1.6 for PC to address many of these top known issues, including overpowered loiters and planes, and you can expect it early next week after some additional testing. We know this might cause some frustration over the weekend, but we appreciate your patience as we work on this.
Company of Heroes 3 Console Edition Launch
We’re very happy to be welcoming all our new Xbox and PlayStation 5 players to the Company of Heroes community! The reception and feedback have been terrific so far. We plan to roll out an initial hot fix to address some of the top issues affecting console players in the next couple of weeks. As we mentioned above, reach out to our support team if you’re having any issues. Be sure to review the Console Known Issues list here.
The Pub Landlord himself, Al Murray, helped us launch CoH3 on console. Check out his briefing in the Console Edition launch trailer!

What’s Next?
It’s been a tough couple of weeks for everyone at Relic, and we’re very grateful to all of you for the kind words of support you’ve sent our way. We know there was some concern about the future of Company of Heroes, but after some restructuring, our team is set up to support and continue improving CoH3 for the foreseeable future. You can find more details about “what’s next” for Company of Heroes in our Road Ahead of Us blogpost. Not only do we talk about next month’s update, Emerald Bear, but we commit to a steadier communication cadence, and we shared our updated Priorities Map for June and July.
