Kingdom Come Deliverance is the first and currently only game from Czech video game developer Warhorse Studios. First released back in 2018, the game holds a special place in many people’s hearts due to its in-depth and hardcore RPG mechanics – leading to a unique experience when compared to other similar titles in the genre. Celebrating its 6th anniversary, Warhorse Studios revealed that the game has sold over 6 million copies.

Taking to Twitter to make the announcement, the official Warhorse Studios page said “Happy #KCD Anniversary everyone! We are proud to share that Kingdom Come: Deliverance has surpassed the 6 million copies mark. We wouldn't be here if it weren't for you… so a big THANK YOU!”

It’s interesting to see the game hitting the 6 million mark on its 6th anniversary – a curious yet amusing coincidence.

With the game still set to arrive on the Nintendo Switch at some point this year, it will be interesting to see how much longer we will have to wait for an official announcement of a sequel.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance holds a special place in many people’s hearts due to its in-depth and hardcore RPG mechanics – leading to a unique experience when compared to other similar titles in the genre. Released in 2018, the game is currently celebrating its 5th anniversary. As part of this it was revealed that Kingdom Come: Deliverance has officially sold over 5.5 million copies.

Warhorse Studios – the team behind Kingdom Come: Deliverance – took to Twitter to celebrate the RPG’s 5th anniversary, saying “Today marks the 5th birthday of #KingdomComeDeliverance. What a ride it has been. A ride that would be impossible without our backers and the most loyal community.”

In a surprise move, the team also released a stealth update to the PC version of the game, adding both Czech and Japanese voice-overs. That is not all however, as on the game’s 5th anniversary it has been revealed that Kingdom Come: Deliverance has sold over 5.5 million copies – an impressive feat considering the game’s relatively niche mechanics.

With a Nintendo Switch port currently in development, it will be interesting to see just how much more the game is set to grow (though it will equally be interesting to see how the game looks and runs on Switch).

Kingdom Come Deliverance is the first and currently only game from Czech video game developer Warhorse Studios. Despite the studio’s relative infancy, they seemed to hit it out of the park with their very first title– officially announcing that Kingdom Come Deliverance has sold over 5 million copies.

Making the announcement on Twitter, the official Warhorse Studios account said “Today we celebrate the milestone of more than 5 million copies of #KingdomComeDeliverance sold across all platforms. Thank you for your loyalty!”

As part of this announcement, Warhorse Studios also revealed that fans can win a diorama figurine of the game’s protagonist, Henry, by “telling your favorite KCD story on our Facebook, Steam or in a Tweet [HERE].”

Kingdom Come Deliverance first launched on the 13th of February 2018 for PC, PS4 and Xbox One to somewhat mixed reviews. Though the RPG’s focus on realism in many aspects was praised, its launch state was less-than-stellar, with a plethora of bugs plaguing the game. Fortunately over time these bugs were quashed, and continued support from the developers in the form of multiple story DLCs helped to flesh out Kingdom Come Deliverance in rather major ways.

It is no surprise to see the game perform so well across the board, and with a Nintendo Switch port promised to be on its way (courtesy of porting specialists Saber Interactive), Kingdom come Deliverance still has a long life ahead of it.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance released two weeks ago after a long time in the making, already achieving wonderful success with over a million copies sold. Despite this, executive producer Martin Klíma has stated that the development team would have benefited from more time to polish the game for its final release.

Klíma opened up on the official developer forum, Warhorse Studios Weekly Torch, answering fan questions in a Q&A. One of the more interesting questions shed light on how Klíma felt about publications touting the title as a triple-A game, meaning a big budget and often found backed by a major publisher.

“I don’t see KCD as competing with the likes of Assassin’s Creed or Shadow of War. We simply don’t have resources to create a game like that. I don’t view us as an indie game either, though,” explains Klíma. “

The reason for this is that he deems ‘real’ triple-A games as “more and more forgiving,” almost as if they “are playing themselves.” Conversely, indie games attempt to break that barrier and bring forth originality, but are limited by their smaller budgets.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance “is an attempt of bridging the two: it is an indie game at heart – more hardcore, more demanding, more fierce – but with the visuals and production values of AAA game,” states Klíma. “I freely admit though that I wish we had more time to polish the game before the release, that’s what AAA game deserves.”

Klíma closes out the Q&A by thanking the “mature, reasonable and supportive community” for being so understanding of the issues that persist with the game as the developers traverse these early stages, even joking that “damn Bitcoin miners prevent us to get a good GPU or even pair of GPUs to test” 4K resolution and 60 frames per second.

Players and readers can still ask questions here, as the team is notable for holding these Q&As regularly. Please note that there is no guarantee that your question will be answered.

KitGuru Says: Even with the issues, it’s nice to see another crowdfunded game make its way out into the world, despite it being 4 years later. The developers at Warhorse Studios seem committed to the game and the sales show that there is a clear demand for it. Were you one of the first million to buy the game? Do you think it needs more polish?
