Company of Heroes, the classic WW2 RTS, is now available for iPhone and Android

Earlier this year, porting experts Feral Interactive released the classic real-time strategy game Company of Heroes for iPad. Now they've moved the game to even smaller screens meaning you can pick it up for iPhone and Android.

There are only select phones that will be able to officially support Company of Heroes on mobile, which you can check out in the tweet below. Additionally, if you've already purchased the iPad version of the game you' should able to download it to your iPhone for free.

If you're not familiar with Company of Heroes, it's a real-time strategy game where players take charge of two companies of American soldiers and guide them through a host of battles throughout the War. This will include the likes of the D-Day landings and the liberation of Normandy.

Given that the game was originally launched on PC, Feral Interactive has spent a lot of time optimising Company of Heroes for mobile devices and have even added a few new features. For instance, there is now a Command Wheel that was designed with touch in mind to make issuing commands to your troops simple and easy.
