The Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 release date was Tuesday 4th February 2025.

The game was previously announced for 2024 before being pushed back until 11th February. Eventually, Warhorse Studios moved the date a week forward, which was great news at the time.

February has become a popular time to launch games, with Hogwarts Legacy last year and Elden Ring the year before that. And in 2025, we have KCD2, Monster Hunter Wilds and the new Like a Dragon game.

KCD2 joined a well-attended February club when it launched, then!

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 gameplay and story details

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 players will experience the majority of the story from a first-person perspective with third-person cutscenes scattered throughout.

While the game does contain several elements typical of an RPG, such as interactive NPCs and skill trees, there are no classes or character creation options.

The story is a direct sequel from Kingdom Come: Deliverance, with the main narrative of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 focusing on the exploits of Henry of Skalitz. Players will play as a skilled soldier battling in a war against Sigismund the Red Fox.

Players have plenty of options when it comes to choosing how they play and progress through the main narrative. Some players may opt for the life of a thief, utilising pickpocketing to generate income at the risk of being caught by the authorities.

Others may choose the life of a knight, using charm and assisting others along their journey.

Regardless of choice, players will have an extensive range of options to choose how they shape their version of Henry, the main protagonist of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.

Is there a Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 trailer?

Yes, alongside the official announcement trailer, there was an official game reveal trailer that released in April.

In the game reveal, Warhorse Studios shares more details surrounding what players can expect from Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, including how they can mould Henry into a unique character.

The trailer also showcases short snippets of gameplay, demonstrating action-packed battles from a first-person perspective and the huge variety of environments that players can explore on their journey.
