East vs. West – A Hearts of Iron Game

East vs. West – A Hearts of Iron Game is a cancelled grand strategy wargame that was to be set during the Cold War era between 1946 and 1991.

[2] Like many of its predecessors in the Hearts of Iron series, East vs. West would have allowed the player to take control of and manage a country, including its political, diplomatic, espionage, economic, military, and technological aspects.

In contrast to previous installments in the Hearts of Iron series, the game was to be set in the Cold War era, and not focus mainly on large-scale warfare.

[citation needed] The main focus of the game was the diplomatic, political, economic, military and espionage aspects of countries during the Cold War period and the decisions the player made in regards to them.

[10] The cancellation of East vs. West was announced in a joint statement on 6 March the same year by BL Logic and Paradox Interactive, citing multiple delays in the project.
