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 across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The game initially sold 1 million copies in a single day, nearly doubling its sales within the following week.

This achievement marks a significant milestone for developer Warhorse Studios, particularly on Steam, where the game boasted over 250,000 peak concurrent players – a stark contrast 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 (data not publicly released by Sony or Microsoft), the Steam figures alone demonstrate impressive growth.

He further emphasizes Warhorse's commitment to ongoing support with updates and new content planned for the next year.

Beyond Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Embracer anticipates the release of Killing Floor 3 later this quarter (Q1 2025). The company boasts a substantial development team of over 5,000, working on 10 upcoming triple-A titles over the next three financial years (FY 2025/26 – FY 2027/28), eight from internal studios and two from external partners. FY 2025/26 will see two triple-A releases towards the year's end, alongside numerous mid-sized titles including Gothic 1 Remake, REANIMAL, Fellowship, Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core, Titan Quest II, Screamer, Echoes of the End (working title), Tides of Tomorrow, Satisfactory (console), and the full release of Wreckfest 2, with additional unannounced projects.

Despite recent challenges including staff reductions and studio sales (including Gearbox and Saber Interactive), Embracer remains a significant player in the industry, retaining studios like 4A Games, currently developing a new entry in the Metro series.
