Greetings all on this auspicious day,

As promised last week, today we have big news as well as an overview of what we’re working on for the next Hearts of Iron expansion: Arms Against Tyranny, and the accompanying Stella Polaris update.

After successfully evading capture and inclusion in numerous HOI expansions, we’re proud to announce that Finland and the Nordic countries will be setting the theme for the Arms Against Tyranny expansion.

Greetings all!

Today we’ll be taking a dive into one of the fundamental building blocks of HOI4: division design, and some changes we’re making to it. This dev corner might be a little less grand than previous dev corners, but division design remains extremely important to the HOI experience, and is a part of the game that’s remained more or less untouched since release.

Those of you with exceedingly long memories may remember in my early roadmap for Hearts of Iron that I mentioned a desire to have doctrines better affect how the player is incentivized to design their divisions. The first step of making this possible is by adding another dimension of choice to support companies.

We have been looking into it, and I'm hoping that we are able to fix it from our side. But cant give any dates for when that fix would be available.

Sort of, with the amount that we want to do, we felt like the best solution is to just make our own channel!

Hoi Neuling said: Thanks from me to the Dev-Team too. That War-Effort-Patches are a great Step forward. Keep up the good work. :D

That this is the Final Patch of that Effort sounds sad, but seems nessecary to bring the remaining Rework / Repairs and important Upgrades in the big one for the next DLC-Integration.

What we have seen already in an big Annoucnement is something, what we had in Hoi 2 and 3 already and the Community whished to get in again. That gives Hoi 4 an another big Upgrade to bring it on an n...

Lamartine said: I have to ask - is this post's banner art AI generated? I have to know, because if not, where can I find those headphones?
It is not auto generated. It was created by a graphic designer that works for us ^^ But, I got no clue on where those specific headphones might be found, as they are possibly not real, and just something we created. :)

It's time for the final patch of this War Effort Initiative cycle! This patch contains a host of balance changes and fixes as well as language localization for Simplified Chinese! We're going to be winding down the Initiative for the time being as we move onto other lines of development!

Furthermore, stay tuned for another message from us later, pertaining to some feature content that we are working on.

sprites said: what happens if you own part of it?
If you own part of a bundle, you dont buy the same content twice, the bundle will simply contain what you do no own.

Hello, If a game leaves Game Pass, its still available on Microsoft Store for purchase, and all the DLCs that you have, will of course stay in your library, but you would need to own the base game to launch it.
