In order to keep the original <em>Company of Heroes</em> online we had to move from the servers that the game was launched on, to a new setup on Valve's Steamworks servers. While we were glad that we were able to keep the original game online, the move meant that we lost a number of features that we had managed to build into the game over the years.

Since the move we have been working hard alongside the team at Smoking Gun Interactive, a Vancouver based studio featuring many of the original team that worked on <em>CoH</em>, to restore the game's features.

Earlier this month we ran an<a title="Company of Heroes Beta" href="http://blogs.companyofheroes.com/2013/11/27/company-of-heroes-beta/"> open beta</a> for players to test the latest version of the game. Now thanks to the beta testers' feedback we have launched the latest update to <a href="http://community.companyofheroes.com/forum/company-of-heroes/company-of-heroes-general-discussion/12895-company-of-heroes-changelog"><em>Company of Heroes</em></a>.

Everyone at Relic would like to thank the fantastic fans who have helped us keep <em>Company of Heroes</em> alive. Your passion for the game, and your help with this latest update, have been invaluable to us.

We look forward to many more years of seeing you on the field of battle.

On May 7th the Company of Heroes’ online servers at server hosting company Quazal was shut down. We are very excited that we have been able to keep the game alive by transitioning to Valve’s Steamworks servers where the game will live well into the future.

Instructions for transferring your game to the Steamworks servers are below:
1. Download and install Steam which is located here - http://store.steampowered.com/
2. Launch Steam and create Steam account (if you do not have one)
3. Sign into Steam account
4. Select “Activate a Product On Steam” from the “Games” menu
5. Enter your Company of Heroes CD-Key in the resulting menu
6. Repeat for the Opposing Fronts and Tales of Valor expansion packs
7. If you do not have your original Company of Heroes CD-Key you can use our Key Retrieval Tool located here: https://cohtool.sega.co.uk/.

Once you have completed these steps you’ll see “Company of Heroes (New Steam Version)” appear in your Library. You can download this and begin to play.
