Embracer Group has announced the resounding success of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, revealing sales figures nearing the 2 million mark. Just one day after its February 4th launch across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, the game sold an impressive 1 million copies. This number has nearly doubled in the ten days since release, showcasing a remarkable achievement for developer Warhorse Studios. The sequel's performance on Steam was particularly strong, boasting over 250,000 peak concurrent players—a significant leap compared to the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance's peak of 96,069 seven years prior. While the actual peak concurrent player count is undoubtedly higher due to console sales, precise figures remain unavailable from Sony and Microsoft.
