Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Receives Major Update
Warhorse Studios has announced that review codes for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will be distributed a full four weeks ahead of the game’s release. As anticipation for the sequel builds, fans are optimistic that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, set for an early February launch, will deliver an impressive experience.
Following the 2018 release of the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance, the sequel once again places players in the role of blacksmith Henry as he battles against the Holy Roman Empire in 15th-century Bohemia. While the first game was praised for its realism and historical accuracy, its launch was marred by technical issues that frustrated many players. However, Warhorse Studios has assured fans that the sequel will feature improved polish, new features, and a more refined experience, reflecting the team’s growth over the past six years.
In a recent Twitter update, Warhorse confirmed that review codes for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will be sent out in the coming days. With the game’s release set for February 4, this means some reviewers and content creators will gain access a month before launch. This move is seen as a sign of the studio’s confidence in the game’s quality. Fans of the original are especially encouraged by this news, as it provides ample time for any remaining bugs to be addressed, potentially avoiding the rocky start that the first game experienced.
Reviewers Get Early Hands-On With Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
In the comments section, many fans of the original game expressed their support for the sequel, offering well wishes to the development team and hoping for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s success. Over the past year, details about the highly anticipated RPG have gradually emerged. In August 2024, a Twitter post revealed that the game’s script is a massive 2.2 million words, rivaling the scale of Baldur’s Gate 3. The sequel will also include multiple endings, and according to the design lead, players will have the option to shape Henry’s character, transforming him from a hero into a villain if they choose.
Amid ongoing speculation, Warhorse Studios confirmed in November 2024 that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will not feature Denuvo or any DRM. The use of DRM (Digital Rights Management) remains a controversial topic in the gaming community, with critics arguing that it can harm game performance and, in some cases, even cause damage to SSDs.
