Recently, the developers have even launched a community store where you can buy merch, and have plans to use that as a launching pad to produce animated original shorts set in the mod’s universe. With an over 30,000 strong subreddit, and an active discord community, it has an incredibly dedicated fanbase - many of whom eschew the base game and play only Kaiserreich - creating fanart, fiction, AARs, and a flood of in-joke memes. Originating in Hearts of Iron II, the mod has existed in various incarnations throughout the series in the past decade. By which I mean to say that Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg, the extremely popular mod for Paradox Interactive’s World War 2 grand strategy game Hearts of Iron 4, has been updated for the game’s latest patch and is once again playable.įor the unacquainted, Kaiserreich is an alternate history total conversion mod that takes place in a world in which Germany is victorious in the First World War.
