The continuation of the Steam hit Kingdom Come: Deliverance will not be released until next year. This was announced by the developers at Warhorse Studios just before the official start of the gamescom 2024.
What has Warhorse announced in detail? Via X, the developers explained that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will not be released in 2024 as originally planned, but instead on February 11, 2025. They intend to use the time until launch to showcase various aspects of the medieval role-playing game.
Of course, it will kick off at the upcoming gamescom 2024. The developers promise:
- a gameplay showcase lasting more than 20 minutes
- the reveal of the Collector’s Edition
- impressions from media representatives and content creators
Here is the trailer for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2:
Larger budget, higher ambitions
What do I need to know about Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2? The role-playing game from Warhorse will be released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. You will again step into the role of Henry (Heinrich) of Skalitz, whose quest for revenge (triggered by the murder of his family) leads you into 15th-century medieval Bohemia.
The first Kingdom Come: Deliverance captivated players despite its rough edges with an immersive game world, characters that grow on you, and a well-functioning mix of role-playing and medieval simulation (one had to pay attention to hygiene, food intake, and exhaustion).
The tremendous success of the first part now allows the developers to think bigger with the sequel (and hopefully invest enough time in polishing the product). The voice actor for the main character is said to have spent 508 hours in the recording studio.
