Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's Graphics Are a Good Omen

When news of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 leaked earlier this year, there were a lot of questions surrounding what the game would entail as Henry's journey continues. Once the first trailer dropped, it was clear that the sequel was boldly going further with its historical accuracy and immersive combat.

Better Graphics Will Bring Immersion Even Further

The first game in the series had solid graphics, but Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 looks to take the graphics, and everything else, a big step further. From the map being twice as large to bringing forth more complex reactive systems, the game sets out to be a sequel that isn't just worthy of the first, but potentially better. Kingdom Come: Deliverance was well known for its in-depth mechanics, and it's intriguing to think about just how much higher Warhorse Studios could raise the bar.

Even with reports that the Xbox Series S is holding back Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 from fully being the game Warhorse Studios intended, it still looks to be a vast improvement from its predecessor. Whether it's the combat, cutscenes, or the scenery of 15th-century Bohemia, the graphics look better across the board. The series has now become notable for its realism and immersion, and the best way to make that even better is through stronger visuals, and it's clear that Warhorse Studios seems to have pulled that off. Not only will it present a more captivating gameplay experience, but the facial animations and expressions even seem to be improved, which will help players build stronger connections to characters.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 does not have a set release date, but is expected to launch near the end of 2024.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Going Bigger and Better

The goal of Warhorse Studios is a bold venture, but the first looks at Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 are a promising sign of what the game has to offer. Of course, it will be difficult to live up to expectations after such a beloved medieval RPG, but it seems like Warhorse Studios is playing on the first game's strengths and building upon them to make a stronger sequel that still carries the same essence. Going bigger and better can sometimes cause sequels to feel bloated. Other times, a larger follow-up can make some features feel neglected over others. However, it appears that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has taken great care in improving all aspects of the RPG.

There has been a lot of news given about Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 since it first leaked back in April, and as updates continue, it will be interesting to see other aspects of the game showcased besides the obvious graphic improvement. Henry's evolution from an unknown to the sequel's teased journey to knighthood promises some exciting things ahead for the series. Whether players are interested in historical accuracy or immersive combat, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is striving to make sure everything looks great.
