We knew Company of Heroes Online was coming to North America as per our own news story, and now it has been confirmed:
Tim Holman, senior producer at Relic, the game's developer, said that, “In the past, our multiplayer experience was a quick game session that was over as soon as the match was over. With this game, you get an extended experience over time.” Completing an online match nets experience rewards, but also army items and hero units. They can also be bought using the in-game store for real-world money. Relic is promising that this will not imbalance the game, as it will only speed up leveling and not give an unfair advantage to paying customers.
So, to confirm, Company of Heroes Online will be coming to North America as a free-to-play title with microtransactions, it'll be a persistent online game where you battle for experience which can be used to purchase items and units, and that the game will contain the single-player CoH experience.
Some fans may not like the idea of Company of Heroes becoming a free-to-play game with microtransactions, heroes, and the ability to purchase armies. However, CoHO is an enjoyable experience and it'll definitely add more shelflife to the franchise.

FilePlanet Offering COHO Beta Keys
Mon, 07/26/2010 - 03:16 PM | by Thunder
We have sent out a limited number of beta invitations to members of our community to get this Closed Beta Test for Company of Heroes Online started. It is fantastic to have a solid core group of players trying the game out and offering their feedback on it at last. This week, FilePlanet is helping us out by offering beta keys to their members, so we can further stress test our game and server hardware. If you’re still looking to get involved, here’s what you need to do:
Monday – Tuesday: The first COHO beta keys distributed by FilePlanet will be going out to their paid subscribers. If you aren’t a subscriber and wish to become one you can sign up here.
Wednesday – Friday: Not an FilePlanet subscriber? Not to worry. The second wave of beta keys will be distributed to IGN registered users. Click here to register for free.
A total of 20,000 beta keys are being sent out this week, 4,000 a day, so the chances are good that you’ll be able to get a key if you want one.
Once again, thank you all for your support and your interest!
