Why CryENGINE?
Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 continues to use Crytek's CryENGINE. In a Gamescom 2024 interview, Martin Klima explained the decision:
"When we finished KCD, we...decided that keeping CryENGINE made the most sense...we spent a lot of time customizing it...I'm quite proud of the performance we have now."
System Requirements and Performance
While official system requirements haven't been released, PR Manager Tobias Stolz-Zwilling assured fans in a recent live stream that the game runs smoothly even on lower-end hardware:
"I personally at home play on a 3050 GPU...and it runs buttery smooth...give us some time on performance testing, and we will tell you soon."
Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is scheduled for release on February 11th for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series S|X.
