Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the medieval action RPG sequel from Warhorse Studios, has achieved phenomenal success, selling one million copies within a single day of its February 4th launch across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.
The game quickly ascended to the top ranks of Steam's most-played games, peaking at 159,351 concurrent players. This surpasses the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance's peak of 96,069 concurrent players on Steam seven years prior. The actual peak concurrent player count is likely even higher, considering console sales, which are not publicly reported by Sony or Microsoft.
Warhorse Studios celebrated the game's launch as a "triumph," a significant achievement for the Czech developer and its parent company, Embracer subsidiary Plaion. Currently, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 holds the top spot on Steam's global best-selling games list by revenue, outperforming titles like Counter-Strike 2, Civilization 7, and Monster Hunter: Wilds, suggesting sustained popularity.
IGN awarded the game a 9/10 rating, praising its "excellent melee combat and exceptional story," calling it "one part sequel and one part coronation."
