Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Reviews
The land of Bohemia beckons you into one of the most immersive, visually impressive and brutal worlds you could ask for. A masterful RPG that combines impactful decision-making, gratifying combat, meaningful progression and a host of gameplay variety, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a triumph that deserves not just your money, but your time and your appreciation.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II follows in the footsteps of its predecessor, while increasing the scope in every way. Its story is a weave of dozens of smaller, though still fleshed-out, tales, its gameplay is still clunky and endearing, and its presentation of Medieval Bohemia still creates one of the best settings in gaming. While not for everyone -- it requires patience, care for the world, and a certain tolerance for bugs and mistakes -- it is perfect for the exact kind of gamer it was made for.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is a remarkable achievement in historical gaming and role-playing design. It successfully balances its commitment to historical accuracy with engaging gameplay systems that make you feel like you're truly living in medieval Bohemia. It's not just a great game - it's an experience that will stay with you long after you put down the controller.
Kingdom Come Deliverance II impresses with its engaging story, complex characters, and realistic gameplay, improving upon the first game's mechanics with a more fluid combat system. While the game shines in its narrative and challenging gameplay, it's let down by occasional visual glitches, awkward facial animations, and persistent audio issues. Despite these flaws, the immersive world. brutal combat and compelling story are very well worth experiencing!
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is everything players wanted from a sequel, delivering more incredible open-world medieval adventures with a focus on realism and historical accuracy. Full of cleverly designed mechanics, surreal levels of immersion, and phenomenal writing, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is honor-bound to excite you.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a natural evolution of the first game, which now fully develops its original vision. It brings a deeper story, historical fidelity, and dramatization of the action. The beautiful backdrops of Bohemian Paradise and Guttenberg complement improved combat, creative quests, and sophisticated dialogue choices. While the game maintains its authentic RPG style, it also pushes the boundaries of the genre and shows how Warhorse continues to improve in narrative and game design.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a phenomenal RPG that players will love spending countless hours on. Bohemia is prosperous and thriving, with a lot of natural interactions that can lead players on quests that feel like an adventure.
A cinematic masterpiece and a landmark game among European historical RPGs.
Summarizing why Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a masterpiece in just a few lines is incredibly difficult. Warhorse Studios has not only improved every aspect of its predecessor but has also demonstrated that, with the right resources, it is capable of achieving greatness. The new chapter in Henry’s journey is a product of exceptional quality, with a commendable technical foundation, hardcore mechanics, and an abundance of thoughtfully introduced content. Is it a perfect game? Absolutely not—it’s still riddled with rough edges. However, these flaws pale in comparison to its sheer grandeur. In short, it’s a strong contender for Game of the Year, and based on its merits, we’ve decided to award it our highest honor.

This monumental medieval adventure will have you living a double life - but in this one, you're a brave adventurer exploring the most faithful recreation of a real place I've ever seen.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, is a true wonder. Between realism and historical accuracy, without disdaining lightheartedness and irreverence, you will immerse yourself in an incredible open-world RPG that is alive and engaging (just as if you were there, right in the Middle Ages), more refined than the 2018 original, with a modified combat system that is decidedly more intuitive and functional, deep and diverse systems that provide even more incentive to seek out a certain style of play, truly jaw-dropping scenarios, and (almost) no bugs or glitches during quests (which in such a vast product is no small feat). However, it still features a slow and compassed pace (especially in the first 7 to 8 hours of play) and - in certain situations - tediously realistic and heavy-handed (on the other hand, this was exactly what attracted millions of players to try their hand at the first chapter and we are sure will attract as many in this sequel). A heaviness that you will later understand and intend in the good sense that will make you feel what you have to do and how you have to do it, just as it was done in the Middle Ages, making you experience an epic adventure. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is a unique game that-although it may not be appealing to many-will delight die-hard fans of open world RPGs.

Warhorse Studios has delivered a worthy sequel and set a new benchmark for what medieval RPGs can achieve. It’s clear that they’re not just creating a game—they’re crafting an experience that invites players to lose themselves in a rich, detailed world that never feels like anything less than a living, breathing testament to the past. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 kicks off the year as a top contender for Game of the Year, and regardless of its ultimate victory, its impact on the RPG genre will be felt for years to come.
Every element of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II melds together into an intense, thoughtful adventure unlike anything I've ever experienced in gaming. Politics, intrigue, and action. The ultimate recipe for a solid story-based RPG, something Kingdom Come: Deliverance II seeks to provide and achieves.
Whether it's fighting, exploring or binge-drinking, Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 improves on its predecessor in nearly every way. Some technical issues hold it back from perfection, but it's definitely worthwhile to step into the armor of Henry of Skalitz for this brilliant RPG.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is the most frustratingly enjoyable game I have played in a while. It is exhausting while at the same time unconventionally brilliant. It requires a heavy constitution to sit through, but the payoffs result in a playground of infinite possibilities.
