- Final Stand Co-Op Hot Fix Incoming - 29 July 2026
We want to thank all our players for jumping into Final Stand on day one! We're excited to finally be able to share this experience with all of you. We greatly appreciate all your feedback today on the co-op experience in Final Stand. We've heard the requests from players to introduce a matchmaking system to Final Stand. With all the difficulty levels, faction options (for both players and enemy A.I.), and Battleground picks – this would create a subpar matchmaking experience and lead to incredibly long queue times. We felt to retain the best possible player experience, we would pursue a traditional lobby system. In the next few days, we plan to add the ability for players to browse a list of public Final Stand lobbies or create your own (private/public) game lobby to be able to play Final Stand with any other player. This approach provides players with more control over their co-op exp…

This is Company of Heroes, but like you've never seen it before. Company of Heroes 3: Final Stand is a new, standalone expansion that takes the fundamentals of the WW2 RTS series and reimagines it with a roguelite twist.

It supports single-player and co-op runs with a persistent progression system that lets your squad and tactics gradually evolve over time.
