SEGA and Relic have revealed that Company of Heroes 3 will release on November 17th. In order to celebrate this, the companies released a new cinematic trailer for it. Additionally, PC Gamer shared a new video, featuring gameplay footage from the North African operation.

There's a name I haven't heard in a while. Hopefully it's good. Now that we have AoE IV back and now Company of Heroes 3, hopefully EA will continue with C&C and Blizzard will get the message to make a proper sequel to Warcraft 3/Starcraft 2. A man can always dream can't he?

You can dream, but I fear that's all you'll be able to do.

Mike Ybarra did an interview some days ago where he basically said that PC only titles are no more for Blizzard:

Where Ybarra is critical is the length of time between 2012’s “Diablo 3" and “Diablo Immortal.” He says the company missed out on nearly a generation of gamers. He says that Blizzard teams are being realigned to deliver content more consistently across devices, including PC and console and, today, mobile. A pipeline of “Diablo” product is in development, with the fourth core edition arriving next year.

Blizzard recently acquired Boston studio Proletariat in an effort to expand its “World of Warcraft” team and content. Blizzard says it intends to hire “hundreds” of developers in the wake of the purchase.

“My hope is we evolve these franchises to deliver great experiences to players on a more regular basis but also expand our universes across devices,” Ybarra says. “Just releasing games on PC doesn’t serve people playing games today.”

We should expect more mobile, or mobile+PC, games from them from now on.
