Relic Details Company of Heroes 2 Pre-Order Bonuses

All collector’s edition pre-orders will receive the Theatre of War mini-campaign, along with some other goodies depending on where you buy it from.

Company of Heroes was a critically acclaimed RTS from Relic games, set in World War 2 and utilizing a unique squad-based area-control mechanic that set it apart from other RTSs. The sequel is coming in June of this year, and if the promise of more Soviet vs German action isn’t enough to entice you, Relic has detailed the pre-order bonuses for all versions of the game.

Every collector’s edition pre-order will come with the Theatre of War mini-campaign, which allows players to experience a new single player story from another part of the war. This campaign will not be available at launch, and will be released at a later date. The two different flavors of the game (standard and collector’s) will also receive a suite of extra bonuses depending on where you buy it from. Here’s the full list
