Warhorse Studios

While Warhorse Studios has made no official announcements about online modes — and likely doesn’t plan to — enthusiasts have decided to bring multiplayer to Bohemia themselves. A group of modders is working on a multiplayer mod for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, with plans for PvP, large-scale brawls in the spirit of Chivalry, and even GTA-style RP servers reminiscent of GTA.

Daniel Vavra left the position of creative director of Warhorse Studios after working on Kingdom Come: Deliverance and Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. His new task is to create a adaptation. This was announced by the head of the studio Martin Fryvaldsky.

An update 1.9.7 for the medieval RPG Kingdom Come: Deliverance has been released, focusing on community requests: the developers have improved stability and added Deep Silver Account integration. By registering for the service, players receive a cosmetic bonus — a special horse caparison that appears in the player’s stash after completing the prologue.

Today (February 13), the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance received a highly anticipated update that brings full support for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles. A detailed comparison has already surfaced online.

Indie developer duo Jan Tichota and Aamn Chahrour have confirmed a collaboration with Warhorse Studios — the creators of the realistic medieval RPG Kingdom Come: Deliverance. The developers revealed that while working on their combat system, they used Warhorse’s motion capture studio and relied on the team’s experience in staging authentic medieval swordfighting.

Warhorse Studios marked the first anniversary of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 with a series of amusing — yet telling — statistics, and one of them stands out in particular. Over this period, players killed 5.4 million enemies while drunk, which doesn’t sound all that surprising for an RPG that features a dedicated “Drinking” skill.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance and its upcoming sequel are set in the Kingdom of Bohemia in the early 15th century—a logical choice, given that Warhorse Studios is based in the Czech Republic. However, the developers initially considered other locations.

Warhorse Studios understood early on that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 could not compete head-to-head with blockbuster RPGs like Assassin’s Creed Shadows or Dragon Age: The Veilguard—primarily because of the massive gap in budgets. Instead, the team chose a different route and deliberately “changed the rules of the game.”

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 sold millions of copies, but the path to such figures began with a small group of Warhorse developers. Design Director Viktor Bocan said that in 2011, no one believed in the success of his team, and some even openly ridiculed the developers.

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the developers planned to introduce a weight gain system for the character, said Martin Klíma, executive producer of the project. The mechanics would look something like in the case of CJ from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

An insider report detailing Warhorse Studios’ future plans has surfaced online. The information was posted on Reddit’s leaks section and, according to the author, comes from a source that previously provided accurate details about the delay of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II.

Making cutscenes shorter in games to attract the attention of players is the wrong way to go. Gamers can also be interested in long plot inserts, if done correctly. This was stated by Petr Pakar, director of Warhorse Studios, responsible for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.

The lead writer of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, Daniel Vávra, has spoken out sharply and candidly about the future of artificial intelligence in the games industry — and beyond. In a lengthy social media post, the developer stated that AI could lead both to “the end of humanity” and to a complete rethinking of how games are made.

The developers of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 at Warhorse Studios are relaxed about the game missing out on high-profile awards like GOTY. According to them, true success is measured not by the size of the audience, but by its level of engagement.

The team behind Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 at Warhorse Studios says the game’s deliberately unforgiving opening was intentional — and early negative playtest feedback only confirmed they were headed in the right direction. According to lead designer Prokop Jirsa, testers’ frustration during development was not a problem, but the goal.

It seems that Warhorse Studios has decided to play a little with fan expectations amid ongoing rumors about a next-gen update for Kingdom Come: Deliverance. The developers may have hinted at the upcoming launch of the upgrade.

Warhorse Studios head Daniel Vavra is currently on vacation — which means he’s been posting on X a lot. Recently, the developer criticized Season 4 of The Witcher and shared his thoughts on The Outer Worlds 2. Now he’s suddenly decided to speak about Andrzej Sapkowski.

A small but important Hotfix 1.5.1 is now available for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. The update addresses several issues in the Legacy of the Forge and Mysteria Ecclesiae DLCs, ensuring a more stable and enjoyable experience.

Czech studio Warhorse announced on social media that it has sold 4 million copies of the role‑playing game Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. The milestone was reached in eight months.

Warhorse Studios, the team behind the Kingdom Come: Deliverance duology, has declared its ambition to become the new king of RPGs. According to communications director Tobi Stolz-Zwilling, the studio intends to keep making deep, immersive experiences.
