Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Does the Business for Embracer as It Nears 2 Million Copies Sold

Embracer Group celebrates the resounding success of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, reporting sales nearing the 2 million mark. The game achieved a remarkable 1 million sales within a single day of its February 4th launch across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S, nearly doubling that figure within just 10 days.

This exceptional performance, particularly strong on Steam with over 250,000 peak concurrent players (significantly exceeding the original game's 96,069 peak seven years prior), marks a triumph for developer Warhorse Studios. While the actual peak concurrent player count is likely higher due to console sales (data not publicly released by Sony or Microsoft), the results clearly demonstrate widespread appeal.

A planned roadmap of updates and new content over the next year further solidifies this commitment to the player community.

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 developers working on its diverse pipeline, including 10 triple-A titles scheduled for release over the next three fiscal years (FY2025/26 – FY2027/28), with eight originating from internal studios and two from external partners. This pipeline also includes several mid-sized releases, such as Gothic 1 Remake, REANIMAL, and others.

Embracer’s recent challenges, including staff reductions and studio divestments (e.g., Gearbox and Saber Interactive), haven't dampened its future ambitions. The company retains key studios such as 4A Games, currently developing a new entry in the Metro series.
