Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Sells One Million Copies in Just One Day

Warhorse Studios’ medieval Europe action RPG sequel, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, has sold one million copies just a day after launch. The game launched on February 4 across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S, and soon shot to the upper echelons of Steam’s most-played games list. On Valve’s platform, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 hit a peak of 159,351 concurrents, a number that will surely grow as it heads into its first weekend on sale. For context, the first Kingdom Come: Deliverance hit a peak Steam concurrent player count of 96,069 seven years ago. It’s worth noting that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s actual peak concurrent player count will be bigger, given the game launched on console as well as PC. However, neither Sony nor Microsoft make player numbers public. In a tweet , Warhorse called Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 ‘a triumph,’ suggesting it’s done the business for the Czech video game developer and its owner, Embracer subsidiary Plaion. The question now is how big can Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 get? It’s currently the top-selling game on Steam by revenue, globally, ahead of the likes of Counter-Strike 2, Civilization 7, and Monster Hunter: Wilds, which suggests it will have legs for some time. IGN’s Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 review returned a 9/10. We said: ‘Armed with excellent melee combat and an exceptional story, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is one part sequel and one part coronation, bringing a lot of the original’s ideas to fruition.’ Getting started in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2?
