Ahead of Sequel’s Xbox Release, Kingdom Come Deliverance Offers Story Recap

Warhorse Studios has given us a Kingdom Come: Deliverance story recap to get everyone geared up for the sequel’s debut next week. If you’re eager to dive into the world of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, this is the perfect opportunity to relive all the chaos and adventure that made the first installment one of the best RPGs on Xbox.

With the follow-up set to launch on February 4, 2025, for Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5, it’s a good moment to revisit the original’s complex journey set in 15th-century Bohemia. The game unfurls a narrative rich with political and military conflicts, so having a storyline recap handy is certainly a plus for both newcomers and seasoned players looking to refresh their memories.

In the first game, you step into the shoes of Henry, who starts as a blacksmith’s son in the town of Skalitz. His life takes a drastic turn after violent events force him onto a path of vengeance. This sets him on an epic quest filled with interactions with key historical figures and pivotal moments of his era. However, it’s not just about swinging swords—players need to dive into deep RPG mechanics, mastering skills like combat and literacy to survive the harsh realities of medieval life.

Before Kingdom Come: Deliverance, I must admit, 15th-century Bohemia wasn’t exactly a hot topic in my conversations—unless you’ve always found medieval politics a fascinating subject, in which case, kudos to you! The first game, however, opened up an intriguing historical world that lingers in our memories. And while we enjoy humorously recalling Wenceslas IV’s more lighthearted diversions, it’s nice to get a solid refresher on what Henry endured during his initial journey.
