Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Launch Success
Warhorse Studios is reveling in the success of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, which launched just yesterday.
This eagerly awaited open-world RPG has made an impressive splash, with more than one million copies flying off the shelves on its very first day, available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S.
The studio took to social media to celebrate this considerable achievement, labeling it a significant win for the team.
On Steam, the excitement was palpable, with over 155,000 players logged in simultaneously—a number that doesn’t even reflect the activity on consoles.
New Features and Gameplay Mechanics
Gamers are diving into the new mechanics the game has to offer.
One standout feature is an innovative odor system that plays a crucial role in stealth gameplay.
It turns out that if the protagonist, Harry, doesn’t keep himself clean, he risks being noticed by others in the game, adding a unique twist to the immersive experience.
Looking ahead, Warhorse Studios has big plans for post-launch updates.
Players can anticipate a new hardcore mode, along with an intriguing quest titled Brushes With Death, set to drop this summer.
Industry Recognition
The game’s launch hasn’t just caught the attention of fans; it has also impressed other RPG developers.
Noteworthy accolades have rolled in from industry veterans like Swen Vincke, director of Baldur’s Gate 3, and the official Twitter account for The Witcher.
Both have reached out to congratulate Warhorse on their triumph.
