    Hearts of Iron IV is a war strategy video game being developed by the Paradox Development Studio. It is the sequel to Hearts of Iron III and part of the Hearts of Iron series of grand strategy games focusing on World War II.

    The formal announcement of the game in January 2014 indicated an intended release date of the first quarter of 2015,[1] later postponed to the second quarter of 2015.[2] At E3 2015, producer Johan Andersson confirmed that the game would be pushed back from its original release window. This is an attempt to resolve several issues encountered with the game.[3] However, Andersson later confirmed that the game would not be released in the first quarter of 2016.[4] The game used the code name Project Armstrong while in development.[5] On March 15, it was announced that the game will be released on June 6, 2016, which is the 72nd anniversary of the Normandy landings.

    In a Reddit "Ask Me Anything" event, Andersson promised better AI and accessibility compared to Hearts of Iron III,[6] and that the game would not have a rigid, forced game-progression but would feature sandbox-style gameplay.[7] He also stated that Hearts of Iron IV would be available for Linux.[8]
