The highly anticipated sequel to Kingdom Come: Deliverance is off to an absolutely incredible start. THQ Nordic and Warhorse Studios have announced that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has already sold over one million copies across all platforms—within just 24 hours of launch. That’s right, the game only came out yesterday, February 4th, and it’s already breaking records.

Over on Steam, where player numbers are much easier to track compared to consoles, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has seen a peak of nearly 160,000 concurrent players in its first day. Even as we write this, the game is still pulling in a massive number of simultaneous players, showing just how strong the demand is.

Honestly, we can’t say we’re surprised. If you’ve played the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance, you know Warhorse Studios isn’t messing around when it comes to creating deep, immersive RPGs. And the sequel? It takes everything that made the first game great and cranks it up a notch. We gave it a well-deserved 9/10 in our recent review, and while it’s definitely not a game for everyone, those who enjoy a detailed, historically rich open-world experience are in for a treat.

And it’s not just us singing its praises. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is already making waves as an early Game of the Year contender for 2025. Our friends over at Push Square even gave it a perfect 10/10 score, solidifying its status as one of the biggest RPG releases in recent memory. Between the critical acclaim and the commercial success, it’s safe to say that THQ Nordic and Warhorse Studios have a massive hit on their hands.

If you haven’t jumped in yet, now’s the perfect time to see what all the hype is about. Whether you’re a veteran of the first game or a newcomer to the series, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about RPGs of the year.
