Kingdom Come 2 Sells 2M, Boosting Embracer

Embracer Group celebrates the resounding success of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, reporting sales nearing the 2 million mark. The game achieved a remarkable 1 million sales within a single day of its February 4th launch across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, nearly doubling that figure within ten days.

This phenomenal achievement marks a significant milestone for developer Warhorse Studios. The sequel's performance on Steam was particularly noteworthy, boasting over 250,000 peak concurrent players—a stark contrast to the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance's peak of 96,069 seven years prior. The actual peak concurrent player count is likely higher, considering console sales, though precise figures remain undisclosed by Sony and Microsoft.
