"Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Sells 1 Million Copies, Developer Celebrates 'Triumph'"

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has stormed the gaming world, selling an impressive one million copies within just a day of its launch. Warhorse Studios' eagerly awaited sequel to their medieval Europe action RPG hit the shelves on February 4, available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S. The game quickly ascended to the top ranks of Steam's most-played games, reaching a peak of 159,351 concurrent players. This figure is set to rise as the game enters its first weekend on sale. For comparison, the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance peaked at 96,069 concurrent players on Steam seven years ago.

It's important to note that the total peak concurrent player count for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is likely even higher, considering its simultaneous launch on consoles. Unfortunately, player numbers from Sony and Microsoft are not publicly disclosed.

Warhorse Studios celebrated the game's success on Twitter, calling Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 "a triumph." This success is a significant achievement for the Czech developer and its parent company, Embracer subsidiary Plaion.

Currently, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is the top-selling game on Steam by revenue, surpassing heavyweights like Counter-Strike 2, Civilization 7, and Monster Hunter: Wilds. This suggests the game has strong staying power in the market.

IGN's review of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 awarded it a stellar 9/10, praising its "excellent melee combat and an exceptional story." The review highlighted the game as both a sequel and a coronation, bringing many of the original's concepts to full realization.
