Equal parts tragic, ridiculous, and triumphant, the game towers head and shoulders above the usual genre fare.<\/p>\n<p>Not since Fallout 3 or Skyrim have we become so fixated on a single game world, and it&#8217;s all the more impressive, considering there are no dragons or Super Mutants to be found here; instead, hyper-specific Czech politicking and a slavish attention to historical detail.<\/p>\n<p>The quality bar Warhorse has set with the RPG is on par with titles like Red Dead Redemption 2 or The Witcher 3, but it makes those legendary games seem mechanically shallow in comparison.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"object object-youtube\">\n<figure class=\"youtube with-primis\" data-videoid=\"3WaqjeHlVek\" data-start=\"0\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3WaqjeHlVek?rel=0&amp;hd=1&amp;showinfo=0&amp;modestbranding=0&amp;autohide=1\">\n<div class=\"video-stage\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 PS5 Review - Is It Any Good?\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3WaqjeHlVek?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"youtube-sub\">Subscribe to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"external\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/pushsquare?sub_confirmation=1\">Push Square<\/a> on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"sub-button external\" rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/pushsquare?sub_confirmation=1\"><span class=\"subs-label\">YouTube<\/span><span class=\"subs\">166k<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/aside>\n<p>While the relentlessly first-person experience may not be for everyone, it offers an unparalleled simulation in which even relatively mundane crafting systems like smithing and alchemy are fleshed out to an absurd degree and are surprisingly riveting.<\/p>\n<p>This extends to the excellent combat, which is still satisfying well past the 100-hour mark. Melee combat is robust, and players&#8217; understanding and mastery of its many intricacies are well rewarded. Seeking out trainers, unlocking and then learning to utilise new skills and combos in battle never got old for us.<\/p>\n<div class=\"insert-label centered insert lazyload for-mobile lazyload\">\n<div id=\"PS_MPU_X_C694C1BA906293\" style=\"min-width:300px; min-height:250px;display:flex; flex-wrap: wrap; align-items:center; justify-content: center;\" data-dfp-id=\"pushsquare\/mobile_web_display\/article\" data-dfp-sizes=\"300x250\" data-dfp-targeting=\"pos=1,gto=false,experiment=nl-article-mobile-2\" class=\"lazyload\" data-dfp-refresh-direct=\"true\" data-prebid-config=\"Lazy_Load_HP_MPU\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>It&#8217;s plain to see that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 was a labour of love for the developers; from stunning real-world locales to period-accurate medieval artwork, every aspect is bursting with detail.<\/p>\n<p>The game world is massive and constantly in motion, with its colourful inhabitants always on the move. Its many and varied environments are rich with detail, and realistic weather and scripted random encounters add to the experience and sense of adventure.<\/p>\n<p>Warhorse&#8217;s sound design deserves special mention, too; wince-inducing sword strikes and hilarious NPC chatter abound, and the vocal and motion capture performances of central characters like Hans Capon and Jan Zizka are second-to-none.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s just so much to see and do in Bohemia, and the narrative is so reactive that even repeat playthroughs of this behemoth are worthwhile; the choices you make along the way are surprisingly consequential. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is undoubtedly one of the most confident and impressive RPGs released in years.<\/p>\n<p><!-- cache: html:pushsquare.com\/ssl\/ps5\/related-articles:177003 @ 1766595142 --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"block object-related\">\n<header class=\"widget-header\">\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Related_Articles\"><\/span>Related Articles<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/header>\n<div class=\"body\">\n<div class=\"object-related-list\">\n<article class=\"object-related-article\">\n<p class=\"object-related-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/7f479819928ac\/150x90.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"90\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 (PS5) - Immersive Knight Sim Makes for a Peerless RPG\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"object-related-info\">\n<h3 class=\"heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Review_Kingdom_Come_Deliverance_2_PS5_%E2%80%93_Immersive_Knight_Sim_Makes_for_a_Peerless_RPG\"><\/span><span class=\"category accent\">Review<\/span> <span class=\"title\">Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 (PS5) &#8211; Immersive Knight Sim Makes for a Peerless RPG<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"tagline\">Fortune favours the brave<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article><\/div>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>Push Square&#8217;s<\/strong> Game of the Year top 10 is decided by votes coming from internal staff and regular contributors.

Everyone I know that\u2019s a hardcore gamer has bought the game, but no one finished it. Seems like a lot of people dropped the game when Expedition 33 came out and never went back after completing that one, at least in my circle.<\/p>\n<p>As a side note: now that I think about it too, sort of incredible that there\u2019s three games my entire group bought this year. Last year, there was but one game that got my entire group minus one person (there\u2019s always that one FF7 hater, isn\u2019t there?).<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s an incredible achievement, but it\u2019s such an obtuse game that I\u2019ll admit I didn\u2019t enjoy it (made me realize I need things to be a bit more\u2026 Bethesda dumb\u2026 with this genre perhaps), but I\u2019m also simultaneously so glad it exists for the people that did love it.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<ul class=\"ui-comment-tools\">\n<li class=\"likes first last\">1<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<article class=\"comment\" id=\"comment8960024\" data-author=\"users\/225544\" data-subject=\"comments\/8960024\" data-dislikes=\"0\" data-id=\"8960024\">\n<p class=\"avatar\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"framed lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/users\/225544\/avatar.jpg?v=1752658634\" width=\"80\" height=\"80\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Max_the_German\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"detail\">\n<ul class=\"info\">\n<li class=\" first\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"num\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"features\/game-of-the-year-8-kingdom-come-deliverance-2#comment8960024\">5<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Max_the_German<\/li>\n<li class=\" last\"><time data-days=\"5\" class=\"date age \" datetime=\"2025-12-24T16:07:19+00:00\">50 mins ago<\/time><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<section class=\"text\">\n<p>I haven\u2019t played neither the first nor the second game, but this looks a lot like a scratch for my Witcher itch.<\/p>\n<p>My question: Does playing the first game before enhance the experience in a great way?
