Build the industrial and research foundation to survive the world's most intense conflict in Hearts of Iron IV: Götterdämmerung.
In this expansion, players have the opportunity to shape new histories for Germany, Austria, Hungary, and Belgium. Explore exciting new research and military options that open the door to devastating new weapons and high-stakes raids on strategic targets.
Features of Hearts of Iron IV: Götterdämmerung include:
Expanded German Focus Tree: A revamped national focus system with alternative historical paths for Germany, one of the most-played nations in Hearts of Iron IV. This includes monarchist content, a democratic Germany restoration, and alternative fascist or militarist routes. More character-driven events add depth to the war’s central player.
Reworked Austrian Focus Tree: Discover alternate histories for Austria outside German influence, with additional content for the former territories of the Habsburg Empire. A new revised historical path is also available for AI-controlled Austria.
Hungarian Focus Tree: Rebuild Hungary with advanced technologies to overcome manpower shortages. Reform the Austro-Hungarian Empire and forge a strong, unified faction.
Belgian Focus Tree: Choose whether to resist or welcome German supremacy. Leverage the natural resources of the Congo to build the foundation for a potential African government-in-exile.
Special Projects: Establish scientific research facilities to push forward advanced technologies crucial to the war effort. Special projects include nuclear research, advanced aircraft, rocketry, improved tanks and artillery, naval engineering, and electronics.
Raids: Plan and execute raids on critical enemy infrastructure. Target enemy ports, industrial complexes, research facilities, and resource collection areas through bombing campaigns, commando operations, or paratrooper drops.
And More: New structures and buildings now appear on the map, AI opponents are more adept at planning their attacks, and changes to the effectiveness and use of atomic warfare bring new strategic depth.
