Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Announced, Releasing This Year
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has officially been announced and is aiming for release on PS5, Xbox Series, and PC at some point later this year.
It's been more than six years since Kingdom Come: Deliverance first released and, since that time, the game's developer, Warhorse Studios, has been quiet about what its next project might be. Considering the first game ended on a bit of a cliffhanger, though, many of us assumed that we'd eventually be getting Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
Just a few days ago, Warhorse Studios started teasing its new project and confirmed that it would be announcing it on April 18. Well, we can all stop speculating as Warhorse has confirmed that its next game is indeed Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, which will see the return of Henry as he continues his adventures in Bohemia in 1403.
The reveal trailer showed off a lot of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, but it's clear that the focus on delivering a realistic quest for vengeance in the Middle Ages is still at its core. While talking about the game in a pre-reveal press stream, Warhorse said that the sequel is what it wanted to make six years ago, but couldn't due to a lack of resources and experience.
As you can imagine, that means that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is a lot bigger than the first game. Not only are there five hours of cutscenes this time around compared to the three that were in the original game, but the world map is also said to be around twice as large, with several stunning vistas shown off in the trailer.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 isn't the only release in the series this year, as we just saw the release of the Royal Edition for Nintendo Switch last month .
Henry is also said to be much more customisable this time around, with players being able to influence whether he acts as a heroic knight, a thief, a charming scoundrel, and more. A reworked crime system also means that NPCs will respond to what you do, including if you choose to walk around town with no clothes.
