"Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Sells 1 Million Copies, Devs Celebrate 'Triumph'"

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has stormed onto the scene, selling an impressive one million copies within just a day of its launch. Warhorse Studios' eagerly anticipated 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, showcasing its immediate popularity among gamers.

On Valve's platform, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 reached a peak of 159,351 concurrent players, a figure expected to surge further as the game enters its first weekend on sale. For comparison, the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance achieved a peak of 96,069 concurrent players on Steam seven years ago. It's important to recognize that the actual peak concurrent player count for the sequel will be higher, considering its simultaneous launch on consoles, although Sony and Microsoft do not disclose player numbers.

In a celebratory tweet, Warhorse Studios dubbed Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 "a triumph," indicating a successful launch for the Czech developer and its parent company, Embracer subsidiary Plaion.

As the game continues to gain traction, it currently holds the title of the top-selling game on Steam by revenue globally, surpassing heavyweights like Counter-Strike 2, Civilization 7, and Monster Hunter: Wilds. This suggests a robust future for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.

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