Overview
Description

Company of Heroes 2: The Western Front Armies is the first standalone multiplayer release for the Company of Heroes 2 series, shifting the focus back to the brutal Western Front of World War II. It introduces two brand‑new factions – the United States forces and the German Oberkommando West – each with unique units and tactics that reshape multiplayer combat. The expansion offers competitive online play, new maps, and balanced gameplay designed for both seasoned strategists and newcomers seeking an authentic WWII real‑time strategy experience on PC.

Police Quest: SWAT puts you in the shoes of a tactical police unit, demanding careful planning and precise execution. The game blends strategy, simulation, and action as you coordinate squads, manage equipment, and respond to high‑risk incidents. Released in 1995 for PC and Mac, the title offers a gritty, methodical experience that challenges players to think like real‑world law enforcement while navigating the limitations of 1990s graphics and interface design.
