THQ Nordic and developer Warhorse Studios has announced a pretty incredible sales milestone for their Xbox RPG Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. The sprawling Series X|S sequel has sold one million units across all platforms within 24 hours of release - it only launched yesterday, February 4th!
Meanwhile, over on Steam where player numbers are more visible than console platforms, the title has hit a peak concurrent player count of just under 160,000 in that same timeframe, closing in on a similar number of simultaneous players right now as we type this up.
We can't say we're hugely surprised by these numbers, if we're honest. Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is a seriously impressive RPG on pretty much every front - as we discussed in our recent 9/10 review of the title. It won't suit everybody's tastes, but those craving an incredibly deep open-world RPG that takes time to master will be handsomely rewarded in KCD2.
It's not just us that's been super impressed by this new Xbox release, either. In our recent review roundup, we touched on how Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is already an early Game of the Year contender for 2025, with our sister site Push Square giving the title a 10/10 score this week as well. Commercially and critically, KCD2 seems to be doing very well for THQ Nordic and Warhorse Studios.
