Kingdom Come Deliverance II reaches 5 million copies sold

7 years after the release of the first game, Warhorse Studios re-entered the limelight with the official launch of the much-anticipated Kingdom Come Deliverance II. Released back in February of last year, the RPG has seen consistent sales – having now officially surpassed 5 million copies sold.

As part of the company’s latest fiscal earnings call, Embracer Group revealed that the Warhorse Studio-developed RPG Kingdom Come Deliverance II “has surpassed 5 million sold copies within its first year of release.”

Warhorse themselves also commented on the milestone, taking to Twitter to say: “Bohemia now welcomes five million players, and we are incredibly proud to see #KCD2 reach this monumental milestone. This achievement belongs to everyone here at Warhorse Studios and our amazing community. Thank you for being part of this journey and making this a reality!”

Kingdom Come Deliverance II 5 million

For context, KCDII sold 1 million copies within its first 24 hours. It then took the game two weeks to hit 2 million; 3 months to reach 3 million and a total of 9 months to surpass 4 million.

The original Kingdom Come Deliverance on the other hand took roughly 4 years to reach 5 million copies, though it of course was a brand new IP at the time and so had less cache overall.

Regardless, the first entry has since gone on to sell over 10 million copies and so it is likely that the sequel will take on a similar – albeit faster – trajectory.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
