Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 27 → 0.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Possibly the best Close Combat but also one of the hardest. It works flawlessly on Windows 10. There is literally nothing else to add.
Finally, 20 years later I have completed this game. Suck it dad.
Reviewing games I played a long time ago: Even though I spent more hours in CC4 and 5, this one has a special place in my heart as it was the first game in the series I ever played, a demo that came in a magazine. And it plays really well on the Deck (and any Linux of course), but be sure to: Go to your install folder, and open the CC2.ini file. Change this: PlayVideos=1 to PlayVideos=0 Use launch option in game properties: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw.dll=n,b" %command%

This was one of my favorite Close Combat games back in the day. It runs fine on windows 11. It runs at max resolution 1280 x 720. If you adjust the desktop res to 1920 x 1080 it plays in a good sized window. On my 55" screen it is a 80 x 44cm window and looks excellent. I just completed the campaign in 20hrs and didn't experience one play-ability issue. You can easily backup the campaign save file so that you can replay a battle if that's how you want to play. Thoroughly enjoyable campaign just like it was back in the day.
I never actually had the full game I had the demo as kid and played it over and over. It was a nice surprise when they dropped the original 3 Close Combats on Steam. Thank you to Berto's review for the following info to make this run on my Steam Deck. Go to your install folder, and open the CC2.ini file.

Fun throwback game
Enjoyable tactical World War 2 game. The difficulty is just right.
I was so excited when I found this jewel. I played it decades ago, back then it was well before it's time. Incorporating a points system to purchase troops before battle, moral system, and enemy troops hidden until one of your units can see them. Gold. By today's standards the graphics are poor and the interface is not modern but it is exactly as it was. If you enjoyed CC2 then it is well worth the purchase. If you are new to the game then there are probably more modernised versions that you would prefer (despite the fact that so far thy all lack the variety of the options available in this gift of a game). NOTE: It is historically actuate in that the Germans have the best gear and tanks, so higher points games benefit the Axis side.
