Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Does the Business for Embracer as It Nears 2 Million Copies Sold

Embracer Group celebrates the phenomenal success of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, reporting sales nearing the 2 million mark just ten days after its February 4th release. The game, developed by Warhorse Studios, launched on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Initial sales figures were already impressive, with 1 million copies sold within the first 24 hours.

This sequel's success is particularly noteworthy on Steam, where it boasted over 250,000 concurrent players at its peak—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 likely higher due to console sales, those figures remain undisclosed by Sony and Microsoft.
