The continuation of Steam hit Kingdom Come: Deliverance is supposed to have even more dialogues than the first part, be twice as large, and become more diverse. MeinMMO reveals the information.
What is the status of the game? Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is currently in development. Warhorse Studios presented the continuation of the role-playing game in April 2024 with a trailer that came too early. The development team promises that the next game, which is supposed to be released later in 2024, will be much larger this time – twice as large
and more diverse
than the original.
Even in the first part of the role-playing game, there are plenty of dialogues, but the sequel takes it a step further. In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the main character already has over 500 hours of dialogues.

Record-breaking Dialogue Recordings
How many more dialogues will there be? The voice actor (Luke Dale) behind the main character Henry (German: Heinrich) has recently completed recording the dialogue lines for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 – after 508 hours in the studio, spread over 127 sessions. That amounts to a whole three weeks of dialogue.
This is recording material. Whether that many hours will actually be used in the end is still unknown. But there’s definitely a lot of stuff.

New Features and More Diversity
What else can we expect? The developers emphasize that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will be what the first part should have been from the very beginning. They assure that the game will introduce many new immersive systems. The developers aim for a more reactive world that will respond to, reflect, and comment on our actions.
The spokesman of Warhorse Studios, Tobias Stolz-Zwilling, reveals in an interview with IGN the following details: The map in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will be twice as large
as the one in the predecessor and will offer a variety of possibilities.
This means not only more landscape and longer paths but also a larger number of quests, random encounters, and other content. There will also be new features such as the introduction of crossbows and a blacksmith mini-game.
In addition, the game is supposed to have more diversity. “Of course, one can expect a wide range of ethnicities and different characters that Henry will meet on his journey in a place like this,” says Tobias Stolz-Zwilling to IGN.
We are trying to portray a realistic, immersive and credible medieval world, reconstructed to the best of our knowledge and belief
.
Should I have played the predecessor? Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will be released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. You will once again take on the role of Henry (Heinrich) of Skalitz, whose quest for vengeance after the murder of his family in the 15th century causes chaos in the Bohemia of medieval Europe.
The first part dealt with Henry’s rise from a simple citizen to a knight squire, while the second part is supposed to bring the actual conflict back into focus.
While it might be beneficial to have played the first part to better understand the story, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is also supposed to be accessible for newcomers. However, there is no confirmation yet whether there will be a summary for newcomers.
