The Western Front Armies is a multiplayer standalone for COH2 that adds two factions to the roster of playable multiplayer armies: the Oberkommando West (OKW) and the US Forces (USF). Each army can also be purchased separately.
By buying TWFA or the OKW / USF army individually, players who do not yet own any COH2 product can access all existing Company of Heroes 2 maps in auto-match, and play against all other existing factions in multiplayer or through skirmishes against the AI.
Each army has distinctive tactical gameplay options, new infantry, team weapons, vehicles, abilities and upgrades on a total of eight seasonal multiplayer maps set on the Western Front. The Western Front Armies also includes a new progression system that introduces other unique content into the game and enables players to dive deeper into the tactical and strategic aspects of the game than ever before.
