Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has launched to phenomenal success, selling an impressive one million copies within a single day of its release. The medieval action RPG sequel, developed by Warhorse Studios, debuted on February 4th across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Its immediate impact is evident in its rapid ascent 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 achieved seven years prior. The actual peak player count is likely even higher, considering the console releases, though precise figures from Sony and Microsoft remain unavailable. Warhorse Studios celebrated the launch as a "triumph," signifying a significant achievement for the Czech developer and its parent company, Embracer subsidiary Plaion.
The game's success extends beyond player numbers; it currently holds the top spot on Steam's global best-selling games list by revenue, outperforming titles like Counter-Strike 2, Civilization VII, and Monster Hunter: World. This strong initial performance suggests sustained popularity.
IGN awarded Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 a 9/10 rating, praising its "excellent melee combat and exceptional story," describing it as "one part sequel and one part coronation."
