The defining structure is a 12-wave run in which randomized units or abilities shape a temporary battlegroup, while faction-specific upgrades carry progress into later attempts.
What is Company of Heroes 3: Final Stand?
This standalone roguelite wave-defense game supports solo play and two-player cooperation.
Players command one of four factions across five battlegrounds, build layered defenses, and withstand 12 increasingly difficult rounds featuring 36 boss units and 18 changing battlefield events. Each wave offers randomized units or abilities that remain active for the current run, while faction-specific progression trees provide persistent perks and abilities between runs.
