Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has stormed onto the scene, selling an impressive one million copies within just a day of its launch. This sequel to the beloved medieval Europe action RPG from Warhorse Studios hit the shelves on February 4, available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S. The game quickly soared to the top of Steam's most-played games list, showcasing its widespread appeal and success.
On Steam, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 reached a peak of 159,351 concurrent players, a figure that is expected to rise further as the game enters its first weekend on sale. To put this into perspective, the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance peaked at 96,069 concurrent players on Steam seven years ago. While Steam's numbers are significant, the total peak concurrent player count for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is likely even higher, considering its simultaneous launch on consoles. Unfortunately, Sony and Microsoft do not release their player numbers publicly.
Warhorse Studios celebrated this achievement on Twitter, describing Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 as "a triumph," reflecting the game's commercial success for the Czech developer and its parent company, Plaion, an Embracer subsidiary.
Currently, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is the top-selling game on Steam by revenue, globally, outperforming major titles like Counter-Strike 2, Civilization 7, and Monster Hunter: Wilds. This strong performance suggests that the game will continue to attract players for the foreseeable future.
IGN's review of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 awarded it a stellar 9/10, praising its "excellent melee combat and an exceptional story." The review highlighted the game as "one part sequel and one part coronation, bringing a lot of the original's ideas to fruition."
