One of my favorite epic scale WWII series on PC has always been Hearts of Iron from Paradox Interactive and the newest edition is slated for a June 6th, 2016 release. In Hearts of Iron IV, you’ll be able to lead practically any historical nation of the period. Regardless if you take the reins of a major power embroiled in the global maelstrom or a small country simply aiming to survive intact, HOI IV allows you to re-fight (and even rewrite) history. Digitally, of course.
It’s also important to note this grand strategy series has always been exceptionally deep, yet sometimes a touch overwhelming for inexperienced players, so Paradox has indicated this latest incarnation will be easier for newcomers to grasp. The Hearts of Iron IV release also happens to coincide with the 72nd anniversary of the Allied landings on D-Day. You can preorder the game now (with additional DLC content included) and the title carries an MSRP ranging from $39.99 – 89.99 depending on your favor of extras.
