Company of Heroes v1.70 Patch (DirectX 10 Patch)
Posted by Regeneration on May 31st, 2007, 10:03 PM

Relic and THQ have released a new patch for Company of Heroes. This patch adds DirectX 10 support, but you must have Windows Vista and DX10 supported GPU (R600/G80/G84/G86). The rest of the change log is still unknown at this point, since it is still unannounced at this point. Stay tuned for more possible updates.
