Not officially, but Johan said it was submitted for alpha in DD14. I'm going to assume that was successful, because I'm optimistic and dying to play this game.

Nelfe · Mar 31, 2015

It seems, in the article posted by Johann yesterday we can see some screenshots with an "Alpha" stamp on them.

takedown47 · Apr 4, 2015

but the pre-alpha screenshots at gamescon also had "alpha" stamped on them

Got a sneaky suspicion that this ones not going to be released just remeber the cold war game they canned at the last minute.

Paradox only edit East vs West, they didn't participate in his development. HoI 4 is a true Paradox game, he won't be cancelled.

RKSlither · May 2, 2015

you guys realize it says late Q2 right as far as i know thats like july august september and it says late so im going to guess 20th-31st of september.

Timmber · May 2, 2015

Q1 : Jan. Feb. Mar.
Q2: Apr. May Jun.
Q3: Jul. Aug. Sept.
Q4: Oct. Nov. Dec.

pretty sure they will release it as hearts of iron is their flagship game.

it will be like everything to do with every version of HOI it will arrive when they are ready to release it.

personally i just hope for all future releases they work out a realistic release date, then add 6 to 12 months to it. then they will have more time to work on a game and if it is ready when they origionally thought they would be able to release it, then the fans will all be like "yippee an early release" instead of "FFS another delay in the release."

still i cant wait for the release of the game or the next DD
