Lest there be any doubt, the medieval RPG Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2<\/a> is a hit, selling more than one million copies in its first day of release.<\/p>\n

“Over a million of you have stepped into our world,” developer Warhorse Studios posted on X. “We’re beyond grateful for your support\u2014thank you for making KCD2 a triumph!”<\/p>\n

By way of comparison, the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance took 10 days<\/a> to break a million copies sold, which in itself is quite good for a game that, as we said at the time, was “buggy as hell [and] demands high-end hardware to run properly.” Because despite its issues, Kingdom Come: Deliverance was a really good RPG, and its successor is even better: PC Gamer’s Joshua Wolens called it “a new RPG classic” in his 90% review<\/a>, while hardware guru Nick Evanson found it a far smoother, more stable, and bug-free experience<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Reflecting its sales success, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is also seeing some enviable player numbers on Steam. At this very moment\u2014mid-day on a Wednesday, to be specific\u2014more than 166,000 people are playing it on Steam alone, good enough to put it amongst the top five on the Steam charts<\/a> and the top 100 most-played Steam games of all time<\/a>. That’s a big jump over the first game,which peaked at around 96,000.<\/p>\n

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 also holds a “very positive” rating on Steam<\/a>\u201492% of the more than 6,100 user reviews posted so far are positive\u2014and over on Metacritic, it’s sitting pretty with an 88 aggregate rating, giving it the top spot<\/a> amongst games released in 2025.<\/p>\n

February is a big, busy month<\/a>, and stiff competition is on the way from anticipated games including Civilization 7 (February 11), Avowed (February 18), and Monster Hunter Wilds (February 27), which promises to be a very<\/em> big deal. But, with all due respect to all the other games on the verge of launch, that’s a full week before the next heavyweight contender arrives\u2014I don’t think we’ll see those Steam player numbers tailing off meaningfully anytime soon, especially with a weekend coming.<\/p>\n

If you’re just getting started in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, or are planning to soon, PC Gamer’s crack editorial staff has some helpful hints for getting off on the right foot: Fraser Brown advises that “chivalry is overrated, do some murders<\/a>,” Morgan Park explains how a life of crime might have some long-term downsides<\/a>, and Joshua Wolens has a hard-learned lesson on how to avoid screwing up alchemy after 75 hours of screwing up alchemy<\/a>. You can also dive into a bunch of somewhat more practical tips below.<\/p>\n
