microtransaction based game in South Korea in April 2010. Company of
Heroes: Online Open Beta ended on March 31, 2011. According to Relic
Entertainment, the reason for the servers being shut down was the
developers' new unnamed RTS
project
which was to be unveiled in August 2011. It was announced on February
21, 2012 by Aspyr Media that they would be releasing Company of Heroes
and all of the standalone
expansions to the Mac OS X platform on March 1, 2012. This also happened,
and Company of Heroes is now also available on the Mac
