KCD2 hits 1 million copies sold in 24 hours: how it compares to first game

After gaining momentum ahead of launch, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II hits its first sales milestone. Here is how it compares to the first game’s figures.

On February 4, Warhorse Studios announced that Kingdom Come: Deliverance II has sold 1 million copies globally. The game is available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, but it is unclear how the figures are split between platforms.

“Over a million of you have stepped into our world,” the studio said in a statement. “We’re beyond grateful for your support — thank you for making KCD2 a triumph!”

It took the Kingdom Come sequel around 24 hours to reach this impressive milestone. This indicates strong pre-orders for the game, which has been climbing the charts for the past several weeks. KCD2 became the top-grossing premium title on Steam for the week of January 28-February 4, trailing only Counter-Strike overall.
