Yo, real talk — if you grew up grinding Company of Heroes, you know it’s that classic RTS vibe with hardcore World War II tactics, cover fire, and base-building madness. Since dropping in 2006, CoH has been the go-to for winnin’ battles where every building can get blown up, units gotta hustle for territory, and your brain is always on high alert. The series ain’t just history; it’s tactical warfare with style — all the expansions, sequels like CoH2 bringing Soviet firepower, and CoH3 with its Mediterranean heat prove this franchise ain't playin'[previous conversation].

But the big q: Is RTS still alive in 2025? Hell yeah, it is — and it’s thriving in ways people might’ve doubted. New RTS games dropping this year are pushing boundaries with smarter AI, massive battles, and insane strategic depth. Games like Tempest Rising, Age of Darkness: Final Stand, and even remasters like Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War prove fans and new blood still crave quick-thinking, tactical warfare on the fly.

What Game Designers Should Learn

• Balance solo and multiplayer: CoH and 2025’s RTS hits know that campaigns hook players but ranked multiplayer keeps communities alive.

What Marketers Can Snag
