Kingdom Come: Deliverance II

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 | ★★★★★ Sakra, I deranged my sleep schedule and ignored real-life priorities just to play as a medieval thief. That 101.5 hours of playtime? It all happened in just around 2 weeks. Yes, two frickin weeks! That’s around 7 hours a day. I watched Henry get a full time sleep while i don't get mine. Am I glad it’s over? Well, let me tell you about the game first. If you played the first one, you’re most likely gonna wedge your way through this game like a snake. Literally, my review (filled with tips) about the original still fits this sequel. What changed? Right off the bat, I noticed it’s more humorous, with a lot more comedy-style dialogue. Funnier characters and way more ridiculous scenarios. Gameplay is same-o same-ol but improved. They refined everything and toned down those hyper-realistic, mundane tasks from the first one. I didn’t feel much of a graphics leap since the original was already ahead of its time, but I did notice the better performance. It runs smoother than its predecessor. Yes, I’m glad it’s over and I had a blast! I can’t wait to play KCD5 via neural chip, just as our lord Gabe intended when I’m super old. Jesus Christ be praised.

I've been gaming since my early 20s, but once I hit my late 20s and now early 30s, gaming fatigue became a real to me. Real life, and work in particular, catches up with you and you find out that you're not as good at long gaming sessions and all-nighters, and don't even really have much time for it. You just come home from work and all you really feel like doing is drop on the couch and doom scroll for the rest of the evening. Then, Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 came along. It's the first game in years that I easily sunk hundreds of hours into, and I've only played it once. I would sign out from Teams, switch my monitor settings and jump right back into KCD2 to spend an hour harvesting herbs to craft potions. How silly is that? Well, it's oddly satisfying, much like making weapons in this game. I'm glad that my gut instinct was telling me that this game deserved to be played on a proper PC so I even spent 1k on my first gaming PC so I could experience it the way it was meant to be played in my opinion. For those of you who are considering playing this game and aren't sure about the combat, make sure you dedicate some time practicing with Tomcat. I got really frustrated in the beginning of the game when everyone was kicking my **s but I just took a few in-game days to practice with Tomcat until I was consistently beating him. After that, I was more than ready for nearly any enemy in the game.

I think I’ve finally figured it out. For years, I’ve had a few games fighting for the top spot on my favorites list. The kind of games that really meant something to me, that stuck in my head long after the credits rolled. But after playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance II for 20 hours, I think this might just be the one. It’s that good. It’s that real. It’s the kind of game that doesn’t just entertain you, it pulls you in. You don’t just play as Henry, you become him. I had this moment where I was sneaking through a village in the middle of the night, trying to pick a lock on a chest inside a quiet house. The whole place was dead silent, just the sound of crickets and a guard’s footsteps echoing in the distance. My hands were shaking, the lockpicking minigame felt like life or death. I finally got the chest open, grabbed what I needed, and bolted out the back, slipping into someone’s garden and vanishing into the trees like a damn ghost. It wasn’t part of some quest. No objective marker told me to do it. It just happened. And it felt amazing. That’s what this game does best. Every little moment feels like your story. The world feels alive. People remember what you do. Help someone in a random side quest, and later down the line, they’ll return the favor in ways you didn’t expect. Mess up too much and guards will keep an eye on you. The attention to detail is insane. I had an encounter with some soldiers on a wagon who offered me a ride, and during the trip, they started chatting about forest legends and cursed places. I was just sitting there listening like I was on a real medieval Uber ride. Then out of nowhere, bandits attacked, and we had a proper fight. After it was over, the guys laughed it off and kept chatting like nothing happened. I hadn’t even done a major quest yet and I was already hooked. Visually, it’s stunning. CryEngine absolutely delivers. No weird Unreal stutters, no bloated menus or forced launchers. The game just runs and it runs well. The combat feels smoother than the first game, the voice acting is top-tier, and don’t even get me started on the dog. That furry little legend deserves his own spin-off. He helps you in fights, finds items, and just makes the whole experience feel even more personal. Everything I loved about the first game is here but better. Sharper writing, more immersive world, smarter NPCs, and a gameplay loop that keeps you coming back. And best of all, it’s not trying to be something for everyone. It knows what it is. No microtransactions, no games as a service nonsense. Just a damn good single-player RPG with soul. So yeah. I think it’s official. After years of debating what my favorite game is, I think Kingdom Come: Deliverance II just claimed that spot. Audentes fortuna iuvat. Fortune favors the bold.

Sometimes I just want to play a game that is grounded in reality and is believable. Thank you Warhorse for rescuing us from flying wizards, magic, and hyper-fantasy. GOTY.

My first run was unintentionally the gay ending. Never been happier 10/10 game.

I really haven't played a game in a while that just absorbs my brain. It's nice to have finally found that game. KCD 1 and 2 are great games, they bring back a feeling I haven't felt since playing skyrim for the first time. I love it, and I'm addicted to it.

My personal GOTY so far. Not just a game, but an experience. It can be quite frustrating and hard in the beginning until you get used to all the mechanics, but once you do - it is absolutely AMAZING. Huge thanks to the developers for creating this masterpiece.

Fun game so far that is mostly improved over the first game in most ways. Postives: - Wonderful game world - The NPC's in the cities are so well done, they go about doing daily things, its amazing - Messing around in the game world on your own, doing your own thing is fantastic - Great atmosphere - Good immersion - Writing for the dialogue and characters is well done - Less buggy than the previous game was - Performance is great - The graphics are very good - Most of the controls are good - The music is amazing - The game feels more polished than the first game - Exploring is a ton of fun - Riding a horse feels better in this game (You can also get Pebbles, your horse from 1st game) - Pretty good Dialogue - Voice acting is very good

After being a huge fan of KCD1, I was counting down the days until the release of KCD2 - and it absolutely exceeded my expectations. It’s the first game I’ve pre-ordered in years, and it was more than worth it. The attention to historical detail, great storytelling, and unique gameplay mechanics make it one of the best RPGs I’ve played. I can't wait for KCD3.

This game is easily on of the best RPG you'll ever play. The world, the quests, the beautiful cutscenes, the soundtrack: this game is symphony beautifully directed and assembled togheter. Some bugs blocked me from doing some side content, but they're ironing bugs out via fairly regular patches. Overall a 9/10, a must play that will be remembered for a long time.

Kingdom Come Deliverance II, the sequel to a masterpiece. Does it live up to to its predecessor? I would say that it does, but doesn't really surpass it. Graphics/Performance: The graphics are a step up from KCD I and look great (with environments and objects looking better than character models). The performance is simply amazing considering how it looks. Combat: it is KCD I's system, but altered a bit. Response time is better, and you can now actually pull off combos now. Masterstrikes are also more involved and there are a bunch of new weapons- like polearms, crossbows and early firearms. They also removed the ability to stab/thrust from multiple directions and combat as a whole is alot easier, with the perks generally being worse, so it is not a straight upgrade. AI: The game introduces a new detection/crime system that is very immersive, if it doesn't bug out. Character AI still is far from perfect, but improved from the first and is overall very immersive. Story/Quests: The biggest factor of why this game doesn't surpass the first entirely. The story continues on the first and expands it into a larger and more intricate story of national politics and intrigue, with the introduction of heavy hitter characters like King Sigismund himself. When the story is good, it is very good, but is held back from what is the clear and unnecessary insertion of nonsense, modern politics. First you have Musa of Mali, a fictitious and obnoxious Muslim Sub-Saharan African character who adds nothing to the story, has no place whatsoever in the setting, and has multiple lines spouting nonsense belittling European culture and values. The next is an insertion of a Jewish Quarter into Kuttenberg where none existed historically, in order to concoct a contrived narrative of Henry have a Jewish brother who he has to save from the bad guys torching their houses. Last but not least was the introduction of homosexual romances, particularly with Hans Capon. There is no reason at all for Henry to romance male characters, considering that he was established as straight, but, going past that, romancing Hans is just egregious, as he is an already established character AND a historical figure who was not homosexual. There was NO reason AT ALL for this to be a thing- piss people off maybe? Fulfill the weird fantasies of a developer or consultant? Who knows..... The side quests are in general the same as the first. Some lame fetch quests, and some that are genuinely interesting and entertaining. Graphics/Performance: 9/10 Combat: 8/10 Quests: 8/10 Story: 7/10 (would be higher without the inclusions that I mentioned) Overall, I do recommend it, but I would perhaps put it on par with the first, weird design decisions detracting from improvements made.

One of the best immersive RPGs of all times. Maybe THE best medieval-themed game of all times. The best game of 2025.

Great game, funny parts, slightly sad parts, brutal parts, some horny parts and of course fun parts :D can recommend!

This is the first time ever that i wanted to become anything from a video game but after i played KCD2 i wanted to become a blacksmith because of a the game i played. I wish there was a way for the character to be able to just get a job and make a living. instead of following the game, e.g. making swords and weapons and then when you get better you can make them for the nobility. after that selling them to earn money. Thanks for this truly immersive game.

After 186.5 hours, I have finished the game. I loved it. I wish this game had 186.5 MORE hours of gameplay. A gameplay sidenote: Level up everything. This game does not allow you to be a one-trick pony. You'll definitely max out your fave skills and have some preferred ways to solve problems (for example, I prefer to take out enemies by stealth when possible), but there are lots of main story, mandatory quests that require proficiency at many different skills. So practice everything, read skill books, pay money to learn from experts, and drink booze here and there. :) Also, in the beginning when you're poor, gathering plants and selling them to apothecaries is a good way to earn money. Wormwood is everywhere and worth several "dollars" to apothecaries. Happy gaming! I paid full price for this game and it was worth every cent.

First game was phenomenal, second game improves on it in almost every way, although I think they overcorrected on combat a little too hard (which is fair given how much people bitched about it in the first game). KCD1 has a stronger overall story I think, despite the end clearly being rushed. KCD2 story is great in the first act, falls off after you get to Kuttenberg and for a decent chunk of the second act, but picks back up in a big way [spoiler]at the end of Oratores. The Italian Job is fantastic, even though the dialogue with Erik at the end is pretty corny[/spoiler]. Kuttenberg itself is awesome, reminds me of how Novigrad felt in Witcher 3. I'd definitely like more crafting options (maces, bows, armor? - might be too easy to make money if you can craft armor though) and some additional viable options for endgame gear. There's some jank, but the game is very polished for only being out for a few months, and Warhorse is consistently patching it. The graphics and immersion are incredible. Plus, full modding support. 100% buy this

Great story! always looking forward to come back to play it which not many story based games have done for me lately.

Just finish part II of the Masterpiece that Kingdom Come Deliverance is. It was WOW to replay the first game this year and jump to the second one so the story can continue. The story is great, the characters have very good stories, the animation and medieval accuracy is very good. The battle mechanics are improved, not so easy to be OP with any weapon, just longsword if you learn master strike. Even then it is far harder to take a whole group of enemies alone and win, if you know the mechanics of the game and chose the battle location, like a tunnel so you can fight none by one. You start out again like a peasent without skills and need to learn and grow yourself to become stronger. Steal from here and there, chose when to fight and run, who to help, get stronger and better at the game until you no longer fear the game and can single handle take down the whole camp with brute force or stealth or diplomacy or using your silver tongue. For now i will wait for all DLC's to be available until, i reply in hardcore mode. I hope that the stories carries on and in the next game we even get to see Prague. "Audentes Fortuna Iuvat !"

The only bad thing about this game is knowing that eventually, the story has to end. I absolutely loved the first Kingdom Come, so my hype for the sequel was through the roof, and it did not disappoint. From the very first second, I was completely immersed. The story picks up so seamlessly from the first game, it feels like you never left. The writing and character development are just phenomenal. You'll meet characters you can't stand at first only to find they've become favorites by the end. Every quest feels handcrafted, meaningful and kind of real. On my first playthrough, i kind of rushed the main story. But my second time I took it slow. I did every side quest I could find, just riding Pebbles through the Bohemian countryside enjoying it all. This is, without a doubt, the best game I have ever played. It takes every single aspect of the first game and makes it better! Warhorse created something truely amazing here!

I'll give the thumbs up because it's a good game, BUT, be aware that this game's content is literally 20% skippable dialogue, 40% fetch quests, 30% escort quests, and 10% is combat and the rest. You will find yourself going from one side of the map to the other just so you can press the E key. In long sessions, this game gets frustrating. King Come Deliverance was a better game purely on the weight of what they created as a small indie team. This feels like they had the core and story of the game ready and someone told them to add an additional 20 hours of fluff. It shows. But saying that, I have binged this game. So there's that.

One of those games you wish went on forever. Henry of Skalitz is a solid equal to Arthur Morgan, this game makes me wish Red Dead 2 had dialogue options.

kingdom come deliverance 2 is an absolute masterpiece that perfectly molds two icons the witcher 3 and oblivion this game focuses on realisim they do it perfectly every inch of the city feels alive with npcs doing different tasks commenting on what you do having curfews realistic punishments as well as having sand box aspects you can rob every house in kuttenberg and bribe your way out of an execution you can execute a criminal and convince the guard to let you go if your clothes are dirty you must wash them even then you need to bathe to fully clean yourself the sense of scale is where kcd2 thrives when i finally thought i finished the game i learned there was a second map even bigger than the first every secret and easter egg feels worth it it never feels like a waste of time if you use fast travel you will miss out on the important bits whether its an npc offering you a place to rest or whatever his name is trying to collect your taxes maybe even watching bandits rob and kill someone kcd2 might just be the best rpg since the witcher 3

Words cannot do this game justice. I thought the first one was amazing and yet somehow the devs went and made this absolute gem. This game kept me company in dark times, just like KCD1 did back in 2018. I haven't finished it yet because I simply do not want it to end. I just know it will hurt so much, like saying goodbye to a great friend.

I've been gaming for 42 years. Started back in 1983. This game is without a doubt in my top 5 for best games ever created. It's a masterpiece. 387 hours spent so far. I completed it twice, so I could get all the quests and objects I missed the first time around. First DLC completed and I cannot wait for the next 2 DLCs. Hopefully that isn't the end for Henry, because Warhorse has something special going on here, and Henry's adventures deserve to continue on.

I thought KCD1 was good... then I got this game. KCD2 was the most captivating game I have ever played. Though, if you have never played KCD1, you should 100% play that first so you are familiar with the story and people thus far. -Phenomenal and historically accurate story telling -Unique combat system that is extremely rewarding -The level of and attention to detail is astonishing -Cut-scenes and dialogue are packed full of emotion -Voice acting is absolutely incredible -Potion making and crafting system is systematic and very detailed And best of all... it is WELL OPTIMIZED This game runs beautifully. In my 70+ hours I had 0 frame drops, 0 stutters, 0 crashes, 0 issues. Play these games. Nothing else will give you anywhere close to this experience.

Best game i have ever played, graphics,story,optimisation 10/10 The second game does it better. My god katherine lights the fire inside me.

The most amusing and immersive role-playing game ever. Henry just had an incredible adventure in medieval Bohemia. Really love it! For better gaming experience, you can download the Deutsch voice pack. Looking forward the KCD3!

The main story is great and the side quests are mostly solid—some were a bit annoying, but nothing major. The world is very detailed and there’s loads to explore and plenty of skills to learn It’s super immersive. I’ve done three playthroughs now and only ran into a few bugs. One was a guy from the baths flying through the street as if he was washing himself LOL, definitely broke the immersion, but made me laugh. Didn’t have any issues with the combat personally—I thought it was fun. Visually, the game’s stunning too. Everything just looks and feels really well put together. Overall, I’d definitely recommend it if you’re into RPGs with a lot of depth and atmosphere.

I'm so glad I gave KCD2 a chance. I was completely locked into E33, which I played and even 100% completed—but no, KCD2 absolutely deserves Game of the Year. I don't care what anyone says: KCD2 > E33 by a huge margin. I highly recommend this game to anyone looking to scratch that itch after finishing Oblivion Remastered.

Still very early in the story, never played the first game. But so far started with nothing, Gambled my way out of homelessness, Became a drug lord, Carried a drunk man through the dark so he could avoid his wife while searching for my dog, robbed a whole town in a night and they didn't figure out it was me. Great game. I'll update once I finish the game but I think the main story will be fun as I continue.

This is the most immersive game I have ever played. I typically don't like open world style games because they feel lifeless to me, but this one is different as all of your actions feel like they have logical reactions from characters and the world around you. This game is a work of art.

Great game! This is right up there with the Witcher III and other classic RPGs. The fighting mechanics are really a trick where you cannot just hack your way to being a hero, but actually pay attention to how you land your blows.

One of the best gaming experiences i ever had in my life. Great story, great cinematics, great soundtrack, great combat, great graphics, great open world, great characters, great concept. Keep doing great Warhorse! <3

The ending left a bit to be desired but the gameplay itself was phenomenal i see myself playing well past 100 hours

Verily, 'tis passable... Not quite as grand as the first, yet still doth it provide a morsel of merriment. A simple contest, fit for idle hands and fleeting hours.

If you have the patience for the game, it's really quite the adventure, and vastly superior to the original game. It's the same, but saving is more lenient, and everything else is much more refined. Quite the adventure!! Def worth a play if you are interested in an peasant to knight kinda adventure!

Definitely GOTY material. Hell, it even got me to touch grass and become invested in medieval history and HEMA swordfighting.

This game is very mid compared to other games I've played. The side quest are mostly find that find this. I don't find that fun but if you do suit yourself. The combat is pretty easy for me but I'm not very casual. The main quest are very fun tho they are more combat and not find that find this. I don't like the progression it's too easy you get money extremely fast and it becomes useless you can reach end game in the first 30 hours if you tried. Overall it's 6/10. It should be about 30 dollars and it would be worth it.

strongly suggest people should buy this game, it is so so good. from the story to the character building you get to have in this game is much more refreshing compared to other games. it will have you on your'e toes at every corner.

Combat is amazing. Just complicated enough to be engaging but not frustrating. The game is so immersive that even the mundane busywork is fun. I loved smithing right away and alchemy grew on me very quickly. 10/10 must play.

By God... I've never expected to get something far better than the first part in which I've spent over 600 hours. I've payed the full price for this one, gold edition - and I am always cheap on video games. Money Well Spent! Basically the first game but way bigger, way better looking, way improved... way more fun!

I was a little worried that this masterpiece was going to be "too much game" for me. I've never been super into RPGs and I typically gravitate towards modern military or SciFi games, but I'm so glad that I bought it. After 124 hours, I finished the main story line and I'm kind of upset. I know that there are other quests that I can do, but it's not the same knowing that the story is over. This game is a 10/10, with very little I can critique. The graphics, sound design, dialogue, story, combat, atmosphere, and overall detail are outstanding. This is definitely set a bar for how a full price game needs to be produced, and it really shows how bad a lot of recent AAA games are in comparison. One thing that I didn't like very much were the few times you play as Godwin. Those segments felt forced in and kind of boring, but luckily it didn't take up very much of the game.

Just finished the main story at 104 hours, and there are a bunch of side quests I'll probably seek out on my next play through. In short: great game, worth the money, would recommend. The longer review, I'll start with what few negatives I saw: 1. There were a few quests that, once started, I found myself trapped within. Mostly these are the main story quests, but not all, and I was really annoyed when asking an inn keeper what I thought was a quick question resulted in multiple in-game days being drug around the map. It may have been a real interesting quest, but I ended up skipping most of the dialogue to get it over with, which took away from the experience a lot. 2. The ability to switch between pre-chosen outfits is great. What is not great is the game removing parts of your armor for narrative purposes, and not replacing it after. This seems like a small thing, but happened repeatedly, and once I only found out when I was suddenly taking more damage than expected. I got in the habit of opening my inventory to check after suspicious cutscenes. Those are my only real complaints. Now to the good: 1. The story is well written and well voiced, obviously. I found myself literally laughing out loud, and catching feelings for various characters, which then shaped my decisions when interacting with them. Great stuff. 2. The atmosphere, my goodness, the atmosphere. I stopped to give directions to someone new in town, and the jerk pick-pocketed me and took off down the street. Only happened a single time. The jerk. But it occurred to me after that hey, that's kinda what you would expect in a city. Lots of details like that. 3. The game rewards preparation. From equipment, potions, or just doing your research and paying attention to what NPCs actually say to you, there were multiple times when I was glad I had put a little thought into what I was about to do. And now the neither good nor bad: 1. It is possible to be over-leveled. I finished the game with an overall level of 29.5 (max of 30), and every foe fell in a couple hits. Which is great for pacing, since things are moving fast story-wise, but all those combos we learned to get this far are just collecting dust at that point. 2. There was some controversy about same-sex romance in the game, and I can confirm that it is a thing. I think there were three different male NPC's I could have slept with throughout the game (not counting the side quests I skipped this run). I can also confirm that they were all avoidable, which I did. What is harder to skip is the overt religiosity, where multiple quests were significantly harder to progress in without Henry giving full and genuinely written prayers. If there was a balance, I think it leans toward religion here. Strongly recommend the game, I don't think the negatives I mentioned make a dent in the positives.

10/10 experience. I am a huge proponent of rip your hair out difficulty that I recall only from Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind. It’s the little things: 1) you cannot change difficulty mid game, live with your choice 2) the AI is INSANE. You cannot just steal whatever whenever, you have to think about the environment. Did you leave a door open, is it nighttime, are you the only person nearby when the crime was discovered? This is just the tip of the iceberg. The AI can deduce, solve, and blame you for crimes even when you thought you were being sneaky. 3) game saves are not just available to you whenever. You have to drink a potion, or make it yourself. This immersion level adds such depth to the gameplay, and really makes you think about whether or not you wanna blow your load on a save game. Well worth the money paid, fantastic experience, and I love the story. Hats off devs *clapping furiously in frustration still waiting for elder scrolls 6*

A very special, phenomenal game. KCD 1 was a game I already enjoyed a lot but I was not expecting to fall in love with this game as hard as I did. The developers have outdone themselves, maybe multiple times over, creating a near perfect experience, with the only serious issue I can think of about the game being the repeated use of the voice actors for different characters. Thank you Warhorse Studios, and everyone involved. For allowing me to play through this experience you have crafted so meticulously and passionately. For drawing me in with your characters full of life, and keeping me at the edge of my seat until the credits rolled. I already cannot wait to see what adventures, dangers, and emotions your imagination will come up with for us to live through together with Henry of Skalitz. Godspeed Warhorse! May you continue to do what you do best! Audentes Fortuna Iuvat!

This game by far is one of the most memorable experiences I've had in recent years. I loved the first one, and this one lived up to the hype. This game delivered what I was expecting and more, and it has surely cemented itself among my favorites of all time. Easily GOTY 2025.

Im 5 hours in and still havent done any quests. Get fucked 4 times by bandits. Just wondering around without any money, picking up herbs and do fuck all. Fells like walking simulator.

Nice. probably one of the best games ever made. If this game doesnt get GOTG for 2025 its rigged

I didn't play KCD, so this is my first game in that setting. I really like the story and the ways you can play Henry and learn skills, etc. Excelling at blacksmithing, alchemy, etc. rewards you. The HUGE problem I have is the super-janky combat. To be clear, I like the idea...controlling feints, blocks, etc., but the execution is punishing. I upgraded my armor and weapon, had some healing on my belt, and tried to learn the perfect blocks to conserve stamina. All I got was 3 or more foes at a time doing combos on me and PB or not, I have no stamina. I watched videos, practiced, and upgraded my gear, but in the end, you have to master the dance steps or you lose. I just die more slowly now. NOT fun. I've won combats as well, but those fights didn't make any sense either. With that said, I do recommend the game IF you are ok with the combat mechanics. If not, skip it. I like most of the gameplay, but FFS I hate the combat system. Watch some videos before you commit. I want to play this game, but I don't have enough free time to be frustrated.
