Many people still view the Kingdom Come Deliverance license as a niche game, but this perception is inaccurate. With 8 million copies sold for the first episode, Warhorse Studio has demonstrated that its immersive universe set in 1403 Bohemia rivals mainstream AAA titles in performance. This is further corroborated by Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, which surpassed one million copies sold within just 24 hours, underscoring the high level of anticipation for this sequel. While there were already enthusiasts captivated by the Czech developers' unique approach, the sequel managed to attract a broader audience. New players, intrigued by a game unlike any other that imposes certain constraints and challenges them to overcome these limitations, have joined in. Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 has earned its place and clearly succeeded. Indicators of the successful launch include SteamCharts reporting over 170,000 concurrent players on PC, confirming the accuracy of this assessment.
