Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has taken the gaming world by storm, selling an impressive one million copies just a day after its launch. Warhorse Studios' eagerly anticipated sequel to their medieval Europe action RPG hit the shelves on February 4, available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S. The game quickly climbed to the top of Steam’s most-played games list, showcasing its widespread appeal.

On Valve's platform, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 reached a peak of 159,351 concurrent players, a significant jump from the first game's peak of 96,069 seven years ago. It's important to note that this number only accounts for PC players, as console player counts are not publicly disclosed by Sony or Microsoft. This suggests that the actual peak concurrent player count across all platforms is even higher.

Warhorse Studios celebrated the launch, tweeting that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is "a triumph," indicating a successful release for the Czech developer and its parent company, Embracer subsidiary Plaion.

The game's popularity doesn't seem to be waning, as it currently holds the top spot on Steam's global revenue chart, outpacing heavy hitters like Counter-Strike 2, Civilization 7, and Monster Hunter: Wilds. This indicates that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is poised for sustained success.

IGN's review of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 awarded it a stellar 9/10, praising its "excellent melee combat and exceptional story." The review highlighted the game as both a sequel and a culmination of the original's concepts, bringing them to full realization.
