“Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2,” the latest offering from the Czech powerhouse studio Warhorse, has taken the gaming world by storm since its grand rollout in 2025. Not only did it smash sales records, breezing past the one million mark in no time, but its player numbers across various platforms have been skyrocketing ever since. Particularly on Steam, the game’s opening day saw a staggering 159,351 players online simultaneously—a figure that’s double the initial turnout for its predecessor, which had a peak of just 96,069. It’s clear that this sequel not only meets expectations but spectacularly surpasses them, setting new highs in the gaming community.
Warhorse is totally amped about the players’ enthusiastic response, describing this game launch as a “victory” for the studio.
“Kingdom Come 2” isn’t just slaying with subtle tweaks to its original formula—it’s the entire vibe of medieval life, a battle system that’s downright fierce, and scriptwriting that speaks volumes. Currently, its sales digits on Steam are already outstripping giants like “Counter-Strike 2,” “Civilization 7,” and “Monster Hunter: Wilds.” And let’s spill the tea: the latter two haven’t even dropped yet! But we’re totally betting on “Kingdom Come 2” to keep blazing its trail on the sales charts.
Set against the backdrop of 15th century Central Europe in Bohemia, this sequel puts players in the boots of Henry, the son of a blacksmith.

Get ready to dive into an adventure where you swing from anvils to aristocracy!
In this edition, the game map is a whopping twice the size of its predecessor, opening up the stunning Bohemian landscapes for players to explore. Some of these breathtaking spots are even taken straight out of present-day Czech Republic. Plus, you can strut your stuff in the UNESCO World Heritage city of Kutná Hora. What a treat! Moreover, the combat system has had a major makeover, making the gameplay way friendlier and seriously legit, with medieval martial arts that feels right out of the Middle Ages. From sleek swordplay to deadly distanced attacks—thanks to new add-ons like crossbows and some wicked early gunpowder weapons—every battle is a thrilling blast from the past. Ready your armor, gamers—it’s going to be epic!
