Warhorse Studios has revealed that it will send out review codes for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 a full four weeks before the game's release. As more details about the highly anticipated sequel are revealed, many eager fans have come to expect great things from Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 when it's released in early February.

The sequel to the 2018 title Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will see players once again step into the shoes of blacksmith Henry as he wages war against the Holy Roman Empire in 15th-century Bohemia. While the original title was applauded for its realism and commitment to historical accuracy, many players were put off by an abundance of technical bugs at launch. The developers have promised a smoother experience and additional features in the sequel, along with a greater level of polish, as those at the studio have continued to learn and grow over the past six years. Now, a new announcement is highlighting how much confidence Warhorse has in its upcoming title.

In a new Twitter post, Warhorse Studios announced that it will be sending out review codes for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 over the next few days. As the sequel is slated for a February 4 release, this means that some lucky fans will be getting their hands on the title a full month before its official launch. More often, review codes are sent out much closer to a game's release. Many fans of the original are pleased to hear this news, as it means that any lasting bugs or issues can be properly ironed out before the upcoming medieval game's release, saving Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 from the same poor initial reviews as its predecessor.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Review Codes Sent a Full Month Before Release

In the comments section, many who played the original voiced their support for the sequel's release, wishing the team good luck and praying for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's overall success. Tidbits about what players can expect from the RPG have been slowly revealed over the past year, with an August 2024 Twitter post revealing that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's script comes in at a whopping 2.2 million words, making it as wordy as Baldur's Gate 3. The title will also feature multiple endings, and according to the game's design lead, players will be able to transform Henry from a hero to a villain if they so desire.

Following persistent rumors, in November 2024, Warhorse Studios confirmed that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 won't feature Denuvo or any form of DRM. The inclusion of DRM (Digital Rights Management) continues to be a hot topic in the gaming community, with many detractors claiming that the software negatively impacts game performance and, in some instances, can even damage SSDs.
