Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has launched to phenomenal success, selling an impressive one million copies within a single day. Released on February 4th for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, the medieval RPG sequel quickly ascended to the top ranks of Steam's most played games. The game peaked at 159,351 concurrent players on Steam alone—a significant leap compared to the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance's peak of 96,069 seven years prior.
