Kingdom Come: Deliverance Could Be Getting a Big Upgrade Soon

by

Warhorse Studios, the team behind Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, might be working on a next-generation upgrade for the original 2018 game. Now that the final downloadable content for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is out, the studio appears to be considering revisiting the first title. When a fan asked about a PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S version of Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Warhorse responded with a playful side-eye emoji, hinting that an update could be coming.

Warhorse Studios has, for the first time, officially hinted at a next-generation upgrade for Kingdom Come: Deliverance, though rumors have been circulating for a while. Previously, a reliable source familiar with the game claimed an update for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S was planned for early next year – reportedly between January and April – and stated it was “100% confirmed.” While fans should still be cautious, this claim now seems more likely as Warhorse is starting to suggest the update themselves.

Warhorse Teases Current-Gen Update for Kingdom Come: Deliverance

A conversation on Twitter this week brought up the possibility of an update for the popular RPG Kingdom Come: Deliverance. One player expressed surprise that, with the success of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, the original game hasn’t received a patch for current-generation consoles or even a performance boost to run at 60 frames per second. They suggested some fans might be waiting for an updated version of the first game before starting the sequel. When asked if an update was still planned, the official Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Twitter account responded with a suggestive side-eye emoji, hinting that an upgrade for the 2018 title might be coming soon. While nothing has been officially announced, many believe an update is likely on the way.

There’s a lot of excitement about a potential update for the game, and many believe it could be revealed at The Game Awards on December 11th. While nothing is confirmed, the developers recently hinted at something new, leading fans to think an announcement might come soon. Players are hoping the update will include improvements like smoother performance at 60 FPS, better graphics with enhanced textures and lighting, and even some gameplay features from the game’s sequel, particularly an upgraded combat system.

With the release of the final downloadable content for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 earlier this year, now is an ideal moment to release an updated version of the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance for current gaming consoles. This would give existing fans a reason to revisit the game, and allow new players to experience it for the first time. The sequel proved more popular, meaning many players know how Henry’s story ends, but haven’t played the first game to see where it all began. Now that the story is complete, it’s a great opportunity for those players to discover the beginning.

The Game Awards are looking like a big event for Warhorse Studios. Not only are fans hoping to hear about a modern update for Kingdom Come: Deliverance, but the latest game in the series is also up for Game of the Year! While it’s a strong contender, 2025 has seen a lot of amazing games, meaning the competition is tough. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is currently considered the favorite to win, but Kingdom Come fans are hoping the sequel will be crowned the best.
