Both Games Targeting Same Release Window!

Story Highlight
  • Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 devs are excited to compete with the massive release of Assassin’s Creed Shadows.
  • The devs have reiterated that KCD2 will not feature Denuvo and will live up to the hype as a hardcore old-school RPG.
  • The Kingdom Come Deliverance sequel will launch on February 11, 2024, with the AC Shadows coming out three days later.

Assassin’s Creed Shadows has been in murky waters ever since it was revealed—for one reason or another. On the flip side, Kingdom Come Deliverance has been on everyone’s radar since the first game attracted millions of eyes. Now, both entries are about to contend against each other, as they are launching in the same release window.

Warhorse Studios’ Daniel Vavra has expressed his anticipation for the upcoming launch of Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, clarifying that having it release near AC Shadows does make him nervous. However, he’s equally excited to see the RPG stand against the industry giant.

Why it matters: Fans have praised Warhorse Studios for not being afraid of Assassin’s Creed Shadows and going all out with their Kingdom Come Deliverance sequel.

Taking to Twitter, Daniel claimed that it would be interesting to observe a small company made up of passionate devs pitting their ‘hardcore old school RPG‘ against a ‘corporate product for modern audiences.’

He also reiterated that Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 will not have Denuvo. Regardless, fans have praised Warhorse Studios for not moving the release date in fear of any potential losses.

Daniel also noted that he is a big fan of the AC series, as he even taught his daughter about ancient Egypt using Assassin’s Creed Origins. However, the series lost him at the fictional depiction of a ‘nonsensical Valhalla’ in the following sequel.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is set to launch on 11 February 2024 for PC and major consoles. AC Shadows will follow suit three days later, with its launch also planned for the aforementioned platforms.
