When we added the ability for Company of Heroes 2 map creators to share their maps with other players through the Steam Workshop we knew that it was going to produce some cool results. We weren't disappointed with hundreds of maps being uploaded within days, some of them with the sort of quality that our own maps have.
But while we expected to see some cool stuff, we didn't know just how the community would embrace these new maps. Here are some fascinating numbers from the first week and a half of the Company of Heroes 2 Steam Workshop.
- 331 (and rising): community maps uploaded
- 15%: percentage of daily matches played on user created maps
- 25%: percentage of daily multiplayer matches played on user created maps
- 18.3%: percentage of Company of Heroes 2 players who have played on at least one community map
The early response to the work of our community has been outstanding, and we're excited to see even more high quality fan made maps make it into the Steam Workshop.
We're thankful to everyone who has created a map for the game, and to all of those players who have played on these fantastic new maps.
If you haven't yet had a chance to play a fan made map, access the Steam Workshop from the main menu of CoH2 and browse the selection. Steam Workshop makes it easy to add the maps right into CoH2, where they can be played in custom matches.
