Kingdom Come: Deliverance II

The Genre Genesis: From Historical Foundations to Next-Gen Vanguard

Uncompromising historical realism, visceral first-person medieval combat immersion, and rich Bohemian narrative depth (riding your armored warhorse through the sun-drenched cobblestone market streets of the grand medieval silver city of Kuttenberg as Henry of Skalitz: wearing gleaming plate armor with your surcoat fluttering in the wind beside Sir Hans Capon, drawing a razor-sharp longsword to engage in a tense first-person directional sword duel against a bandit knight, timing a master strike parry to deflect his high strike before slicing into his unarmored collarbone, pulling an early iron Hand Cannon from your belt to ignite the matchlock fuse, firing a deafening blast of black powder smoke that shatters an enemy shield line, visiting the town blacksmith to physically heat steel bars in the forge and hammer out a custom mace, having a drink at the local tavern as peasants sing lively Bohemian folk songs, and marching into a massive siege assault against a fortress as Jan Valta’s sweeping Gregorian Latin choirs and medieval symphonic brass roar), paired with Warhorse’s historical RPG summit—from Kingdom Come: Deliverance (2018), Mafia (2002), Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord, The Witcher 3, and five decades of RPG design—trace their undisputed, most content-rich, historically accurate, and universally celebrated golden summit to February 4, 2025 with Warhorse Studios and Deep Silver’s crowning triumph, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II.

Directed and written by Daniel Vávra at Warhorse Studios on CryEngine starring Tom McKay (Henry) and Luke Dale (Hans), Kingdom Come: Deliverance II doubles the scope of the 6M+ selling original.
