Red Dead Redemption 2 fans might have their hands full right now with the recent release of the Red Dead Redemption 1 next-gen upgrade, but there might be an even better option for players—and it's a 2025 GOTY contender.
Players on Reddit have recently been discovering that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 scratches the same itch as Red Dead Redemption 2, with ThatGuyFrom720 claiming it's the "only game I’ve been able to play since RDR2."
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is hands-down one of the best RPGs to release in 2025, earning a GOTY nomination at The Game Awards alongside Clair Obscur, and it remains one of the most slept-on RPGs of the year.
While it may not seem like the most obvious jump to go from Red Dead Redemption 2 to Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, there are definitely some parallels that players will appreciate between the two games. Players like the above Redditor who appreciate a game with a "structured but open world, an immersive environment, amazing story," and the sense of immersion and discovery will appreciate what KCD2 has to offer.
