Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's phenomenal success continues, surpassing 2 million copies sold in under two weeks. Warhorse Studios, the developer, celebrated this achievement as a "triumph," mirroring their reaction to the game's initial 1 million sales just one day after launch.
This remarkable feat for the medieval RPG sequel, released February 4th on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, is further evidenced by Steam's concurrent player count. Embracer Group, Warhorse's parent company, reported over 250,000 peak concurrent players on Steam alone – a significant leap compared to the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance's peak of 96,069 seven years prior. The actual peak player count is likely higher, considering console sales, although precise figures from Sony and Microsoft remain unavailable.
Embracer lauded Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's "initial success," encompassing player and critical reception, as well as sales performance. CEO Lars Wingefors attributed this to the dedication of Warhorse Studios and publisher Deep Silver, expressing confidence in sustained revenue generation over the coming years. He highlighted the game's quality and immersive appeal, emphasizing a robust roadmap of updates and new content planned for the next year.
The post-launch roadmap includes three expansions slated for 2025. Free updates in spring will introduce features like a barber shop for character customization, Hardcore Mode, and horse racing. Summer will see the release of the first paid DLC, "Brushes with Death," focusing on protagonist Henry's involvement with a mysterious artist. Autumn brings the "Legacy of the Forge" expansion, delving into Henry's adoptive father's past, while winter concludes with "Mysteria Ecclesia," a covert mission within the Sedlec Monastery.
