When you first launch Company of Heroes 3, you will jump straight into our tutorial mission. (You can exit this from the menu at any time by pressing ESC and selecting Quit to Menu. You can access it again under the Singleplayer menu if you want to play it once more). After completing this, you’ll be greeted by the Main Menu. For first-time players, we recommend starting with the Italian Dynamic Campaign as this also features several tutorials to help you get going. For our returning players that want a more linear singleplayer experience, feel free to start with the North African Operation. Longtime multiplayer fans and coop players can access automatch for both of those modes right from the Main Menu, or you can create your own Custom Game lobby at any point. Custom Games are also how you’ll be able to setup games with mods from the Steam Workshop.
You can also find our video tutorial series debuting on launch day on our YouTube channel.

How can I take cool screenshots?
By default, you can use the shortcut CTRL + SHIFT + / to toggle Screenshot Mode and hide the game’s user interface. In any singleplayer game, Tactical Pause (pressing spacebar) is your friend!

How can I watch a replay file in-game?
Though we are still working on the 1.0 version of our Replay feature, we understand not having this at CoH3’s launch makes creating content, hosting tournaments, coaching, etc. more cumbersome. For now, you can make use of a workaround to force the game to play a replay file. Note: this method is not fully stable and could result in playback desynchronization, crashes, or other issues. This workaround will not allow you to see the perspective of both teams.
Right from launch, Modding tools will be available to anyone who purchases Company of Heroes 3. You can find our Modding Knowledge Center here, which includes guides, walkthroughs and helpful tips. Our team continues to work to improve the offering and capability of the modding tools, and much of that work will be based on your feedback and testing. So please leave your feedback on the forums! If you want to browse the mods that are available for CoH3 you can click the Mods tab from the in-game Main Menu or find the Steam Workshop here. We recommend checking out Janne's CheatCommands Mod to test and learn game mechanics!

- When you complete a multiplayer, coop, or custom game, navigate to the playback folder on your computer. It should be in a file path like this: MYNAME\Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes 3\playback
- Your most recent match will be saved as temp.rec
- Rename this file, otherwise it will be automatically overwritten when you play your next match
- Right-click Company of Heroes 3 in your Steam library and select Properties
- Under Launch Options, input the following argument string, and be sure to change “filename” to whatever you saved your replay file as:
- -replay playback:filename.rec
- Now, click Play on the game. It should now load directly into your replay file
- Tactical Pause will work during replays
Right from launch, Modding tools will be available to anyone who purchases Company of Heroes 3. You can find our Modding Knowledge Center here, which includes guides, walkthroughs and helpful tips.
