Hearts of Iron 4 is the fourth installment of the Hearts of Iron World War II strategy games developed by Paradox Interactive. The game allows you to take control of any nation in the war and lead it to victory, but some of the strategy elements of the game may be overwhelming to new players to the genre or casual gamers. This is why, in this guide we outline the best HOI4 Cheats and console commands for PC to give you that extra edge in-game.

It would be irresponsible to use the listed cheats and commands in online multiplayer due to the strict anti-cheat algorithms employed by many games and also since this would be frustrating to fellow players online and would result to your gamer account being reported, penalized or banned. It is also good judgment to back up a ‘clean’ save file prior to using any cheats for HOI4.

Launching the Console on HOI4
The console can be launched by pressing the tilde (~) key usually located under the Esc key. However, the key varies based on keyboard layout and regions and may require you to try: Shift+2, §, `, “, ^, Alt+2+1, or Shift+3 to launch the console depending on your keyboard variant.
You can use the up and down keys to traverse previously executed commands and while most commands can be revoked by repeating the command, sometimes it is necessary to reload a save or quitting the game.

How To Leave Faction In Hoi4
Ellased
Recruit
Hello,
Before the Merlyn update, I use to buy products in Fort Sterling and sell them in other cities like Bridgewatch or Lymhurst. I recently joined the faction of Fort Sterling. But because of that, I can't go to other cities anymore... Is it possible to leave a faction? How can I do that?
Thank you very much,
Ellased
