Relic Entertainment announced Company of Heroes 3: Final Stand on July 3, a standalone spin-off that rebuilds the World War II RTS as a wave-based defense game. Players fortify positions and survive 12 rounds of enemy attacks, with each wave introducing stronger foes, boss units, and random obstacles. A roguelite system presents randomly chosen units and abilities after each wave, while faction-specific skill trees provide permanent upgrades across playthroughs.
The game supports single-player and two-player co-op, with four factions (US Army, British Army, German Wehrmacht, German Afrika Korps), five dedicated maps, and an endless mode. Difficulty scales across eight levels. Final Stand is Relic's first release as an independent studio after leaving Sega in 2024. It launches July 30 on PC via Steam, with Japanese text support planned.
