Medieval open-world RPG Kingdom Come: Deliverance getting a sequel

Developer Warhorse revealed today that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is officially on the way. The medieval first-person open-world RPG will place players back into the role of Henry, the protagonist of the original, now serving as a knight of his friend Hans, providing a bigger scope and scale for the conflict. Warhorse plans to release Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 by the end of 2024.

Embracing the massive open-world of the original, Warhorse explained that the sequel will build on almost every facet of Kingdom Come: Deliverance. A longer, more epic story, more cutscenes, more expanded combat, and a larger world are just some of the features. More specifically, the world itself is double the size, and will feature more large-scale battles as opposed to the smaller battles of the original. It’s a bold follow-up to a popular title that has sold over 6 million units to date.

Also like the original, choice and the world changing around your choices are big part of the adventure. In an example provided by the developers, if players choose to bumble around town drunk and naked as Henry, those around will comment on his behavior and Henry can respond in turn. However, if any nobles are present, they might remember this moment when later considering to fraternize with Henry.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is aimed to release on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S before the years end.
