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/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 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.

Originally like 20 years ago I bought this game on CD and it was a real blast for me the game was fantastic and so after many many years it appears on steam so of course I bought it and play it. Man how I was dissapointed ... the game itself is good almost everything I remembered was in the game.... almost.... some factors was permanently removed from the original game like heavy tanks. I was playing version where there were tigers II and pattons, jagdtigers, calioppe sherman and mine sweeper sherman and more, on this version panther is considered only as a medium tank and is the heaviest tank in the game also some of the vechicles were removed on both sides americans and germans. Thats not all, some features in infantry units are also missing like scavenging when soldier uses all his ammo and search body of other soldier for a weapon or something. So overall the game itself is still good and playable but without all of the features is only a shadow of its former version so decision to buy it and play is up to you.
This is a rare gem. You must study real military tactics (not included) and consider the psychology of the troops under your command. If you give a crazy order the soldiers or tanks will refuse to obey those orders and they will let you know so. Ammo is not infinite. Military resources are limited and tired soldiers will move slow. Just like in real life. I loved it.

Yes.
I played this game as a young man. It really hasn't lost much. The strategy hasn't changed, and you get a sense of what's happening on the ground in real time. It's just expressed in a basic, vintage way visually. The after-action report on your teams is a great feature. I consider it the best of the CC games I've played.
I think this game was developed by the guy that designed the panther tank. That's the only explanation for how it is balanced
I recently purchased Close Combat 1-5. I wanted to relive some childhood memories. Regrettably, these games were unplayable. Not due to aged affects, poor performance, or graphics. Literally just unplayable. I tried to load up 3 and it instantly crashed. 4 lasted 7 minutes before it was done. 5 was a mixture of both. So sad, that I cannot replay these. If they fixed it I would love to revisit. Good luck out there, everyone.
On niin ihana.

It's a classic. and the best one in the series. Thanks for bringing it back for us old schoolers!
I really like other games in this series, but this game is not enjoyable. I can shoot a Panther tank 10 times, doing no damage, and just have to sit and watch helpless while it picks off my tanks 1 by 1. I like the difficulty and realism of other Close Combat games, but this one is just atrocious.
