Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Is Out This Year and It’s Looking Great, Not to Mention Twice as Large

Over six years after the first game's release, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is finally official. Czech developer Warhorse Studios has been cooking a sequel in great secret until it's almost ready.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is, in fact, launching this year for PC (the Steam page is available here), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X.
