Kingdom Come Deliverance Could Be Getting A Next-Gen Update Following The Success of The Sequel

4K Resolution, Better Frame Rates, And Enhanced Textures!

Story Highlight
  • Following the massive success of KCD 2, the original game is getting a remaster.
  • A new update suggests Kingdom Come will be updated with 4K visuals and high frames.
  • The remaster was rumored for a February 2026 release in a report last month.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 was one of the best releases from last year, and also a frontrunner for the GOTY awards. Fans loved what Warhorse Studios did, and to capitalize on it, the studio is looking to breathe new life into the original. 

According to a recent PlayStation Store update, Kingdom Come Deliverance is reportedly getting a next-gen update that will include 4K resolution and improved frame rates to make it stand with the modern game standards. 

Why it matters: The original Kingdom Come had a very loyal following, but it couldn’t become as mainstream as the sequel did, so the studio could be trying to push the original into the limelight as well.

While it hasn’t officially released yet, PlayStation Store‘s description of the game says that it now features 4K visuals, high frame rates, and enhanced textures, hinting that the update could be arriving soon. 

Now, there were already rumors that a Kingdom Come Deliverance Remaster was reportedly in the plans for a February 2026 release. So, this could be confirmation before the official word that it is indeed happening.

Warhorse wants to capitalize on the success of KCD2

Post Kingdom Come 2’s success, many players did want to experience the original, but they couldn’t as it wasn’t refreshed for next-gen consoles. But now seems to be the time the players will be able to get their hand onto it. 

For now, we aren’t sure if the update will be on all systems. This was spotted on the PlayStation Store, and it is confirmed for PS5. Considering the sequel was multiplatform, we can expect the same with this.
