Embracer Group celebrates the resounding success of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, reporting sales nearing the 2 million mark just ten days after its February 4th release across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S. The game achieved an impressive 1 million sales on its first day alone, nearly doubling that figure in a remarkably short timeframe.
This sequel from Warhorse Studios has demonstrated exceptional performance, particularly on Steam, where it boasted over 250,000 peak concurrent players – a significant leap compared to the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance's peak of 96,069 seven years prior. The actual peak concurrent player count is likely even higher, considering console player numbers, which remain undisclosed by Sony and Microsoft.
