Silent Hill f Previews: A Near-Perfect Fresh Start For The 20+ Year Old Franchise

Story Highlight
  • Silent Hill fans praise the game for being near-perfect, along with a fresh start that the series desperately needed.
  • Those who have played the game praise its exploration, dialogue, and psychological horror elements.
  • Overall, the game is looking to be a solid GOTY contender.

We’re officially less than 2 months away from the release of Silent Hill f, the first new mainline entry in the franchise after 13 long years. The latest entry is poised to bring fresh new changes to the 20+ year old franchise with a brand-new setting of a rural Japanese town set during the 1960s.

Things are looking optimistic for Silent Hill f as the first previews for the game are now out, which are calling the game near perfect and a solid GOTY contender.

Why it matters: Marking the return of the franchise, fans have high expectations from Silent Hill f. Fortunately, these previews suggest that Konami will be able to live up to the expectations and may even go above and beyond.

Previews call Silent Hill f the most distinct entry in the franchise yet, one that still feels familiar and stays true to its roots. While rooted in horror, the game leans more into psychological elements.

As previously reported, Silent Hill f will also altogether ditch firearms in favour of melee combat. That said, don’t expect any less confrontations as the game is more action-oriented than Silent Hill 2 Remake.

Perhaps more than anything, I’m just happy to see the Silent Hill franchise firing on all cylinders again – Gameinformer 

The game also leans more into exploration in the fictional town of Ebisugaoka, which otherworldly creatures have overrun. As the story progresses, the puzzle sequences will also reveal the lead, Hinako’s childhood traumas, as she is forced to live through them again to survive.

Previews call the game more disturbing than anything, and by its dialogue choices, the game reveals the inner monsters of humanity, too. The game does best at putting players through uncomfortable situations via its narrative and dialogue options with Hinako and the surviving members of Ebisugaoka. 

Portraying a victim of bullying and household trauma, Silent Hill f explores controversial themes that may even take a toll on the player. That said, these same tropes have made Silent Hill f a strong GOTY contender, as suggested by the previews.

PS6 To Focus On Affordability And Mass Appeal Instead of Raw Horsepower

Story Highlight
  • A new report reveals that the PS6 will focus on affordability instead of raw power.
  • The insider suggests that Sony will be using the same tactic it used with the PS4.
  • He also revealed that the console would cost less than the PS5 Pro and release in mid-2027.

Although the current PlayStation generation may not be best known for its games, the PS5 boasts solid hardware. Many believe the mid-gen refresh, the PS5 Pro, didn’t make sense since the hardware leap wasn’t significant compared to the base console. 

The price difference between the PS5 and PS5 Pro was also massive, leading to concerns among the fandom regarding the upcoming generation of PlayStation. Fortunately, a new report has revealed that the PS6 will focus on affordability and mass appeal instead of power.

Why it matters: Microsoft has promised that the next Xbox will feature the most significant technical leap yet, so it will be interesting to see how the comparison will go with PlayStation in the coming generation.

According to Moore’s Law is Dead, a source deemed credible for leaks related to Sony, the company will not go all out with the upcoming PlayStation. Instead, it will appeal to the mass market and emphasize affordability, similar to the PS4.

Remember the PlayStation 4? It was a console that made the choice to not go all out in specs so that it could have mass market appeal after the previous generation left some people feeling burned with how expensive it was at its launch.

It appears that Sony is planning to do this sort of strategy again with the PlayStation 6.

The insider further said that the console will only be 3x more powerful than the PS5, which is a modest upgrade by console standards, but it seems like the tech giant is focusing more on PSSR innovations.

As such, AI will be a key focus for the PS6, just as it is for Nvidia’s latest RTX 50 series graphics cards.

While some people speculate that the upcoming console will cost around $1000, the insider reports that this isn’t the case. He believes that the console will cost less than $600, which would make it cheaper than Sony’s mid-gen refresh, the PS5 Pro.

Latest Updates

He has also claimed that the PS6 will be released in mid-2027, despite some reports mentioning a 2029 release window.

PlayStation Handheld To Be Half As Powerful As PS5; Outperforms ROG Xbox Ally X For Lower Price

Story Highlight
  • A reliable PlayStation insider has discussed leaked specifications of Sony’s upcoming handheld.
  • This portable hardware will feature 4 Zen 6c CPU cores and 12-20 RDNA 5 CUs for half of the PS5’s rasterization performance.
  • These specifications should also be able to outperform the Xbox ROG Ally X at a lower price.

As part of the next generation plans, Sony is reported to be working on a PlayStation handheld to compete against the ROG Xbox Ally X and Nintendo Switch 2.

A new leak has also highlighted this handheld’s potential specifications, revealing an interesting power dynamic between the handheld and its competitors. According to an insider, the PlayStation handheld will be half as capable as the current-generation PS5.

Why it matters: This would make the portable console significantly more capable than the PS4 in a small form factor, making it appealing for a large gaming audience.

In a new video, Moore’s Law is Dead discussed leaked specifications of the PS6 and PlayStation handheld. Codenamed ‘Canis,’ this handheld is expected to ship with 4 Zen 6c CPU cores and 12-20 RDNA 5 CUs running at no more than 2GHz.

He further stated that the portable console would target a 15W TBP, with the power requirement allowing Sony to make a compact design. As per the insider, these specifications should net 50% of the PS5’s raster performance. 

For context, the PS5 originally shipped with 36 RDNA 2 CUs. The upcoming handheld is also said to be more capable at ray tracing than the PS5, mainly due to the upgraded RDNA 5 GPU architecture.

Elsewhere, Xbox’s ROG Ally X handheld is mentioned in the video, with the insider stating that ‘Canis’ should be more capable at a cheaper price. He wraps up the video by saying the console should launch in late 2027 or early 2028.

This also suggests the PS6 will arrive around the same time, making the PS5’s lifespan much shorter than initially anticipated. Moreover, the insider believes Sony will target a $400-500 price point for the hardware to compete with the Nintendo Switch 2.

This would make the PlayStation handheld quite affordable for its specifications.

Because Moore’s Law is Dead has been accurate with information related to the PS5 Pro in the past, this leak could be the very first bit of accurate details regarding Sony’s next-generation plans. Still, it may be worth taking the specifications with a slight pinch of salt until more details arrive from other sources.

GTA Online Access Could Soon Require Face ID Verification Following New Laws

Story Highlight
  • New laws in the UK require face ID verification to access adult content.
  • These laws are quickly spreading to apps like Spotify and even games.
  • Rockstar’s internal GTA Online files suggest a similar facial ID verification system is heading to the game.

GTA 5 has sold around 200 million copies to date, and GTA Online is a major part of the game’s success. In fact, Take-Two and Rockstar have made billions of dollars from this part of the franchise over the last decade.

Although GTA Online remains incredibly popular to date and is expected to go through another new wave of players once GTA 6 arrives, it seems new laws will soon disrupt Rockstar’s magnum opus. According to a reliable insider, the studio is preparing to implement face ID verification for the game.

Why it matters: Many have spoken out against these requirements, deeming them closer to censorship than anything else. It seems, however, the new laws are being implemented at an incredible pace.

GTA 5 Online
GTA Online is popular among people of all ages.

According to reliable insider Tez2, Rockstar has already made internal changes to GTA 5 that point to this change. In-game files point to messages like ‘Verify your age to access GTA Online,’ teasing the newly implemented age verification laws from the UK.

Although it remains unknown to what extent the team will pursue age verification and limit GTA Online for younger audiences, this change will certainly be a big one for the entire community.

Tez2 expects certain features like phone messages and Snapmatic to be restricted at the very least. However, it is entirely possible that this component of GTA 5 will be restricted entirely for younger gamers.

This also means that GTA 6 will likely require similar verification for its online mode. Although this update is set to roll out by region, face ID requirements might become common by next year.

GTA 6
GTA 6 May Require Even More Strict Age Verification

For the unaware, age verification was recently made mandatory for viewing adult content in the UK. Since then, even apps like Spotify have followed suit, and many believe it is only a matter of time before such laws become widely adopted worldwide.

Of course, the gaming industry will also be impacted by such drastic changes in policies. GTA, in particular, could suffer due to its satirical nature and adult themes.

Battlefield 6 Becomes Instant Top Seller On Steam Following Multiplayer Reveal

Story Highlight
  • The Battlefield 6 excitement has risen to new levels after the game’s latest multiplayer trailer.
  • Pre-orders for the first-person shooter are also going strong, with the title reaching Steam’s top-sellers list.
  • Following next week’s open beta, the game could see another surge in pre-order numbers.

The Battlefield 6 multiplayer reveal went live yesterday, creating waves of excitement within the first-person-shooter community.

Thanks to a focus on a military theme, destruction, and other Battlefield pillars, the game seems to be on track to becoming a major hit. Further hinting at its upcoming success, Battlefield 6 has already become the top-selling game on Steam.

Why it matters: The game previously topped Steam’s wishlists after its campaign trailer, and it continues to show positive signs for the series’ future.

Battlefield 6 Steam Best Selling Game

At the time of writing, Battlefield 6 is all everyone is talking about. This excitement is now reflected in the Steam best-sellers list, with the game being the #1 best-selling title.

Battlefield 6 has even beaten every free-to-play title on the list except Counter-Strike 2. This is a huge achievement considering the game’s $70 price point, which makes it quite a bit more expensive than other titles on the list.

As mentioned earlier, Battlefield 6 previously reached a significant wishlist milestone after its debut trailer. The latest milestone means that EA and Dice are doing an excellent job ramping up the marketing with each passing week, and the community is also responding well to this strategy.

An open beta is set to go live next week, so Battlefield 6 could see yet another surge in sales across all platforms. Reception has been incredibly positive so far, but the beta could drive the excitement through the roof once players get to try the game for themselves.

Latest Updates

Mafia: The Old Country PC Requirements Points To Optimized Port

Story Highlight
  • Mafia: The Old Country PC requirements are now out, and they reveal solid optimisation.
  •  However, as the game is developed via Unreal Engine 5, there could be some performance issues on launch. 
  • The title is set to launch this month on 8th on PS5, Xbox Series S|X and PC. 

Mafia: The Old Country is set to release this month, and the hype is currently at an all-time high. The developer has learned a lot from the release of Mafia 3 and won’t repeat the same mistake. That is one of the main reasons why the upcoming Mafia doesn’t feature an open world. 

Still, the optimisation can make or break a game, so fans have been wondering how this one will perform on launch. The PC requirements are already out, which points to a solid, optimised port. 

Why it matters: For fans to pre-order a game now, they mostly look for the optimisation, as it matters a lot. If a game isn’t optimised thoroughly, it ruins the experience. 

Mafia The Old Country PC Requirements
Mafia: The Old Country PC Requirements Are Officially Out

The minimum requirements to play the game require you to have at least 16GB RAM, an AMD Ryzen 7 2700x/Intel Core I7-9700K processor paired with AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT/Nvidia RTX 2070. If you are going to use a different card, then keep in mind that 8GB V-Ram is necessary. 

So, you would need the specs mentioned above to be able to play the game on 1080P medium settings. To play the game at 2K high settings with quality upscaling, you would need RX 6950 XT/RTX 3080 Ti paired with Ryzen 7 5800X/ I7-12700K, 32GB RAM, and, if you want to use another graphics card, the required V-RAM is 12GB.

It should be noted that the official requirements don’t specify the hardware required to play the game at native 4K. You can play the game at 4K, but it will be upscaled from what is known as 3K or 2.8K resolution. 

So, to play the game at Epic preset, you would need Ryzen 7 9700X/I7-14700K paired with RX 9070/ RTX 400 Ti and 32 GB RAM.

Latest Updates

With the looks of it, the game seems pretty optimised for the PC, but the game is developed via Unreal Engine 5, so it may not have the ideal performance.

GTA 6 Main Story Will Be 75 Hours Long, Reveals Leak

Story Highlight
  • A new leak has revealed that GTA 6’s story will take 75 hours to complete. 
  • Currently, Red Dead Redemption takes the longest to complete, so it makes sense that the upcoming GTA will feature a longer main campaign. 
  • One thousand world events and hundreds of side activities are also rumoured. 

GTA 6 has been in development for a pretty long time, and way too much money has been spent on its development. While the game was supposed to release this year, it was delayed and is now targeting a May 26, 2026, release date. 

Rockstar has already released two trailers, but still, the fandom knows little to nothing about the game. Most of the things are known due to leaks or rumours. To add more to those, a new leak has surfaced online revealing that the main story of GTA 6 will take 75 hours to beat. 

Why it matters: There are some people who prefer a game’s campaign to be around 20-30 hours long, while others like it to take up to 100 hours. However, when it comes to GTA 6, most people may want the story length to be on the longer side.  

GTA 6 Story Leak
The Story Duration of Grand Theft Auto 6 Seems To Have Been Leaked

According to remiremus_, a leaker has claimed that the story of the upcoming GTA will be 75 hours. There will be a prologue and a total of five chapters, with Chapter Four being the longest. 

The leaker has also revealed that he ending is set to be outside of the US and it has been mostly completed. Just some work on the graphics remains to be done. 

It should be noted that if this is true, then it will be the biggest story Rockstar has ever worked on, which makes sense given the game’s budget is estimated to be around $2 billion.

GTA 5’s story takes around 32 hours to complete, and its predecessor takes around 35 hours. So, the gaming giant seems to be aiming for more than twice the story duration of the previous games. 

Latest Updates

There are plenty of rumours regarding world events. So, if fans think 75 hours is less than the game has been in development for a long time, they shouldn’t worry much; around 1000 world events and hundreds of activities are rumoured to be included in the game.

That said, fans should take this news with a grain of salt as nothing has been officially confirmed. What do you think about the story length of GTA 6? Do you think 75 hours is enough?

Cartoon Skins Not Planned For Battlefield 6; Devs Will Stick To Grounded Military Theme

Story Highlight
  • Battlefield 6 will focus on a core military theme for its skins and microtransactions.
  • The game will avoid cartoony skins like those in Call of Duty.
  • Fans are glad to see Dice taking the game seriously, and the latest multiplayer trailer has received a lot of praise.

Modern microtransactions are prominent across all major AAA releases today, but Call of Duty has become one of the worst examples of this practice becoming too excessive, with fans now asking Activision to put an end to the outlandish skins.

On the other hand, Battlefield 6 seems to be heading in the completely opposite direction. Following an explosive reveal, the team has teased that Battlefield 6 will not feature any cartoon skins.

Why it matters: Games like Fortnite have encouraged developers to pursue crossovers for their games, often at the expense of the game’s identity.

Battlefield 6 Gameplay Featured
Battlefield 6 Gameplay Looks Great So Far

As Charlie Intel reports, the Battlefield 6 team was recently asked to share its thoughts on the cosmetics fans can expect in the game moving forward. Although the team did not explicitly mention outlandish crossovers and cartoony skins, it did confirm a major focus on the series’ core military theme.

The thing we can say, we are a military shooter in modern times.

On the other hand, Call of Duty has recently collaborated with IPs like Beavis and Butt-Head, adding characters to Black Ops 6 that stand out and harm the overall immersion

Many Call of Duty and first-person-shooter fans had hoped Battlefield 6 would go the opposite route and offer something fresh to the industry. It seems Dice is doing just that, incentivizing both Battlefield and Call of Duty fans to give the game a shot.

Since Call of Duty’s approach is so set in stone, fans can also expect similar cartoon-themed crossovers with Black Ops 7. This is precisely why many are so glad that Battlefield 6 does not appear to be following suit.

Call of Duty Microtransactions
Call of Duty Microtransactions Continue To Receive Criticism

Elsewhere, general reactions to Battlefield 6 also remain incredibly positive. It will be interesting to see how players feel about the game after the upcoming beta since many are excited for the IP’s return to form.

Battlefield 6 Debuts Stunning Multiplayer Trailer With All-Out Destruction

Story Highlight
  • The Battlefield 6 gameplay trailer has been officially revealed, and it exceeds expectations. 
  • The trailer mainly highlights destruction, which seems to be better than any other game in the series. 
  • The release date of 10 October for the game has also been confirmed.

Battlefield 6 is a highly anticipated title that many have been waiting for years. Recently, a CGI trailer was revealed, which sparked a fire among the fandom and caused the game to become the 6th most wishlisted title on Steam. 

That said, the gameplay trailer was just released along with many more reveals. It is fair to say that the developer, so far, has managed to live up to the hype, as the trailer was stunning and featured all-out destruction.

Why it matters: It isn’t a battlefield game without proper destruction, so the developer has managed to incorporate the central element in the upcoming title pretty well.

The trailer reveals immense destruction, which is necessary for a Battlefield game. It mainly revolves around destruction because, after playing Battlefield 2042, the main concern from the fandom revolved around the lack of that. 

So, the developer has taken that feedback seriously and exceeded the fandom’s expectations. Old classes from Battlefield 4 are also back, and the scoreboard, which wasn’t available in BF 2042 on launch, will also be a part of the game from the start. 

When the previous trailer was revealed, many fans were sceptical and were hesitant to pre-order. However, now that the gameplay has been revealed, many fans have changed their minds and pre-ordered without a second thought.

Battlefield 6 Multiplayer Reveal Goes Beyond Fans’ Expectations

Of course, there would still be many who would be sceptical and prefer to wait for the release before spending their money, and that is totally fine.

The first-person experience from this game will probably be pretty rare to get from any other FPS title if the gameplay is similar to what has been shown (it may also reach 100 million players). It should also be noted that the gameplay is not final, as there is still a lot of time before the release, so it can be polished even further. 

Latest Updates

The release date has also been confirmed. Battlefield 6 will be released on 10 October on PC and current-gen consoles.

What are your thoughts after watching the gameplay trailer? Do you think it features the best destruction out of any Battlefield game? Share your thoughts with us in the comments section below or join the official Tech4Gamers forums for discussion.

How Players Overcame World of Warcraft’s Toughest Challenges

Story Highlight
  • World of Warcraft has a history of immensely challenging boss battles.
  • These range from Onyxia to Uu’nat, with some even requiring as many as 700+ attempts for the first kill.
  • Troublesome patches also caused players their fair share of problems.

World of Warcraft players are no strangers to hardships and challenges. Between various hard bosses and grueling raids, the game presented players with one challenger after another.

One notable instance that stood out had to do with a bug in 2005 during the Corrupted Blood event. A debuff intended for the ZulGurub area leaked through, impacting players in areas like Ironforge and Orgrimmar.

Soon enough, the streets turned into graveyards, and Blizzard could not undo these impacts through a simple hotfix. As such, the Corrupted Blood event became famous for its infestation in 2005.

It also highlighted the need to prepare for all types of tough encounters and challenges. This is precisely why stacking up on gold and seeking help are wise ideas in World of Warcraft. In fact, many players buy World of Warcraft gold to be ready for anything Azeroth throws at them.

Why it matters: Very few things in gaming match the satisfaction of overcoming a seemingly impossible foe or boss.

Vanilla Horrors

Onyxia in World of Warcraft
Onyxia Forced Players To Try Different Strategies

Vanilla WoW raids are famous for being incredibly challenging. For starters, Onyxia remained undefeated for 69 days before the guild Ruined managed to beat her mechanics.

On the other hand, Nefarian brought random Class Calls and insta-kills, creating problems for all types of raiders. C’Thun was yet another challenging enemy, his unscrambleable tentacles and eye beams haunting players for months on end.

It wasn’t until April 2026 that this formidable foe was finally taken down by Nihilum.

Icecrown Citadel

Wrath of the Lich King brought a similar challenge to the table. Arthas was an incredibly challenging foe on his own, but mechanics like Defile, deadly Valkyr abductions, and platform-destroying transitions meant that players had to face multiple threats all at once.

Facing enemies like Lady Deathwhisper, Blood Queen Lana’Thel, Putricide, and Sindragosa made things all the more difficult, requiring precise timing and coordination.

Cataclysm’s Mechanical Nightmares

Cataclysm brought fourth even more troubles for players to endure. Cho’gall in Bastion of Twilight presented curses and debuffs, while Al’Akir kept players on their feet with the threat of near-instant death.

Finally, Deathwing demanded players make no mistakes, as one slip was enough to doom everything.

The Modern Gauntlet

Uu'nat World of Warcraft
Uu’nat Crushed Players For Nearly 1,000 Days

With the passage of time, World of Warcraft bosses became more difficult. In fact, the first victory against Fallen Avatar took as many as 453 pulls due to constant debuffs and pressure.

Archimonde in Hellfire Citadel took 472 attempts, while other encounters like Queen Azshara, Halondrus, and Jaina Proudmoore required several hundred attempts themselves.

Uu’nat, in the Crucible of Storms, proved to be a far greater challenge than anybody could have imagined, requiring nearly 1,000 attempts for the first victory.

Balancing And Technical Issues

Disasters like patch 11.1.5 also became memorable for their significant impact on the players. In addition to a plethora of bugs, this patch saw race wins revoked. This became an even bigger issue when someone had set the record for the Realm First title by 2 minutes and 22 seconds.

Latest Updates

As frustrating as some of these moments were, they defined memories that WoW players will continue to look back on for decades to come. These fights taught players the meaning of perseverance, strategies, and teamwork.

Capcom’s Share Price Rapidly Declines, Despite Monster Hunter Wilds Being 2025’s Best-Seller

Story Highlight
  • Capcom’s share price has rapidly declined mainly because of MHW not meeting sales expectations. 
  • The company has revealed that the game has hit a wall in terms of sales. 
  • Despite selling 10 million copies in just one month, it sold less than 500K in April and June. 

Monster Hunter Wilds is arguably the best-selling game of 2025. This game sold like hot cakes and wasn’t showing any signs of stopping until a significant oversight by Capcom. Due to major optimisation issues and other concerns, the fandom started review bombing the game, and it now has over 50% negative reviews. 

The game launched to nearly 1.4 million players on Steam, but right now it is sitting at only over 30K 24-hour peak. Despite the fact that it is 2025’s best seller, it didn’t sell much in April and June, which caused Capcom’s share price to rapidly decline. 

Why it matters: A slight negligence from the developer can make matters worse. If Capcom listened to fandom’s feedback and improved the optimisation, the sales may not have been affected.

Capcom’s Latest Monster Hunter Title Has Hit A Wall In Terms of Sales

Monster Hunter Wilds sold a whopping 8 million copies in just three days. In just a month, it surpassed the 10 million barrier, but then the sales slowed down. These many sales in just a span of a month are infrequent. 

The developer was perhaps expecting it to continue to sell at this pace, as it called the sales in April and June soft, which caused its share price to rapidly decline. For reference, the company’s share price at the end of Wednesday was around ¥4,283. However, today, when the market opened, the price dropped by a whopping 9.5%. 

This means that Capcom’s shares dropped to ¥3,874. The company has revealed in its financial results for this quarter that its net sales and operating profit were up 53.7% and 90.8% respectively. However, it also revealed that its latest Monster Hunter sales seem to have hit a wall. 

Regarding catalog titles, although sales were soft for Monster Hunter Wilds, the latest title in the series released in February this year, Monster Hunter Rise, a previous title in the same series, continued to see sales growth.

-Capcom

Latest Updates

The game sold a whopping 10 million copies in its first month, but in April and June, it sold 477,000 units. This is surprising because its predecessor, Monster Hunter World, sold 389,000 units in the same period, which, by the way, is a four-year-old game.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 1 Remaster Hinted At By Official Social Media Account

Story Highlight
  • The Kingdom Come: Deliverance official Twitter account has hinted at a remaster/next-gen update for the first game.
  • PlayStation Game Size, an account known for scraping the PS Store for listing and game sizes, also hinted at a new version.
  • Warhorse Studios denied any plans for a remaster of the game, so expect a next-gen update with higher FPS support and loading times.

While Kingdom Come: Deliverance 1 already had a solid fanbase and was quite synonymous with RPG fans, the sequel took the franchise to new heights. The first entry was still Warhorse Studios trying to cement its footing in the genre. 

Still far from perfect, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 1 is still a solid RPG with a good narrative, on par with its sequel. Still, the game is in desperate need of a makeover, and thankfully, a remaster may be on the way as per the game’s social media account.

Why it matters: With Kingdom Come Deliverance 2’s success, fans have been demanding a remaster of the first game now that Warhorse Studios has plenty of resources and even time on their table. Fans will be glad that their wish is soon to come true.

Kingdom Come Deliverance Official X Account Posting A Cryptic Tweet

Over at X, the game’s social media account posted a cryptic tweet, under which a fan replied asking if they’re working on a PS5 version of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 1. It’s safe to say that the reply has practically confirmed that an update is on the way.

Furthermore, PlayStation Game Size, an X account known for posting PS Store listings and game sizes, also hinted at a remaster of the first game just recently.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 1 Was Launched In A Poor State Due To A Limited Budget

Still, Warhorse Studios previously denied that they would ever remaster Kingdom Come: Deliverance 1. If anything, this new version could be a minor update with some additional features, along with support for higher framerates, resolution, and better loading times.

Warhorse Studios has also released a Switch 2 port for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 1 that fixed all the previous bugs and featured better loading times. As such, a next-gen console update is highly likely to happen.
