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.

If you liked part 1, you will get a sequel that will be even better in practically every respect. However, if you are one of those who did not warm to the first part, there is a very good chance that you will feel the same way with "Kingdom Come: Deliverance II" despite the many improvements.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is quite possibly one of the best non-linear RPGs I have ever played. No game has ever made me feel like anything could actually happen based on my choices to the degree this game has. The story and side content are both varied and enticing, making me want to stop and just go experience all the side quests I could. The combat and progression mechanics are also solid, and I even loved the more realistic mini-games like smithing or alchemy, which give a nice break from the fighting and running around. There are some minor issues here and there, like getting stuck on terrain and the pre-rendered cutscenes taking out a little of the immersion, but these are small in the grand scheme. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is a fantastic game through and through, and it would be a shame not to have this one in your library.
