Warhorse Studios recently made an exciting announcement: they’re distributing review codes for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 a full month before the game hits the shelves. Traditionally, review codes don’t go out until closer to launch, so fans are buzzing with anticipation. This extra time before the February 4 release is seen as a win for players, providing the opportunity to address any last-minute bugs or glitches.
As details about this highly anticipated sequel emerge, anticipation is building for what Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will offer when it makes its debut in early February. Picking up where the 2018 original left off, players will once again take on the role of Henry, the blacksmith, navigating the tumultuous landscape of 15th-century Bohemia amidst warfare with the Holy Roman Empire. The first game won praise for its dedication to historical authenticity, but it was also plagued by technical issues at launch. Learning from past mistakes, the developers have pledged a more polished experience this time around. Warhorse’s decision to send review codes so early is a bold move that underscores their confidence in the game.
Warhorse Studios shared on Twitter that the review codes are rolling out over the next few days, giving some lucky players a chance to explore the game a whole month before its official release. This early access is a departure from the norm, as games usually send out codes much closer to launch. For fans of the original game, this is welcome news — it allows for crucial tweaks that could spare the sequel from the same rocky start its predecessor faced.
In the bustling comments section, fans of the original game are rallying around the sequel, sending their well-wishes and hoping for a successful launch for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Bit by bit, information about the RPG’s features has trickled out over the past year. Back in August 2024, Warhorse Studios revealed the script size, boasting an impressive 2.2 million words — rivaling even Baldur’s Gate 3. The game promises multiple endings, with players given the freedom to steer Henry towards heroism or villainy based on their choices.
In November 2024, after much speculation, Warhorse confirmed that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 would not implement Denuvo or any DRM (Digital Rights Management) systems. Within the gaming community, DRM is a contentious subject, with many arguing it can hinder game performance and even cause harm to hardware like SSDs.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is shaping up to be an exhilarating action RPG experience. Set during the turmoil of a civil war in 15th Century Bohemia, players will step into the shoes of Henry of Skalitz. A tale of revenge, betrayal, and self-discovery awaits Henry, as he transforms from a humble blacksmith to someone woven into the fabric of history, navigating a beautiful yet brutal medieval world. Exploring an open-world backdrop from bustling cities to serene forests, players will embark on an unforgettable adventure filled with action and wonder. With its release date set for February 4, 2025, gaming enthusiasts have much to look forward to.
