Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Dev Firing Back at Claims of Alleged Pre-Order Decline Over “Woke” Concerns Has Players Divided

If you’ve forgotten already, the Kingdom Come: Deliverance game was bashed for its lack of diversity. The game’s director, Daniel Vávra, pushed back against these claims, stating that the open-world title was a historically accurate representation. Six years later, Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 was revealed with a promise that it would honor a range of ethnicities.

The sequel also includes some LGTB scenes, which will lead to Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 getting banned in Saudi Arabia. Many gamers aren’t happy about the title being inclusive and state that all these factors have led to a low pre-order number for the title. However, Vávra has gone all-out against such pointless claims.

video titled “woke,” which describes how the game is suffering from pre-order refunds.

According to Vávra, the YouTuber behind this video, is a “grifter” and has revealed that the title’s pre-orders haven’t taken a dip as the ratio of sold and returned copies is still the same.

Another grifter. No. Our pre-orders haven’t dropped because of backlash. The sold/returned copies ratio is the same as it was. What happened is, that the preview hype has naturaly wanned and 9 massively discounted games entered the chart. Monster Hunter is down as well.

That’s not all, though; Vávra stated that the game’s preview hype has gone down, and the arrival of a number of discounted titles on Steam charts is the primary reason behind the drop. While gamers agree with Vávra’s reasoning behind the decline in pre-orders, many have hit back at him and believe that the game will be a failure.

Why are you still doing this? You are doing nothing but hurting your game by constantly attacking people. It’s not a good/smart move.

Don’t market your game as historical then have ahistorical things like “mansa of Mali” which has no historical basis for being there in 15th century Bohemia. It’s extremely disingenuous.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, there’s no denying the fact that it was one of the most anticipated titles of the year. If you’re someone who’s itching to play the game, you’ll be happy to know its release is right around the corner.

Warhorse Studios has already confirmed that Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 will be released on Tuesday, February 4, 2025. What’s great is that it won’t be leaving out any major platform; the game will be a day-one release for Xbox Series S/X, PS5, and PC.

It’s great to see that the game is releasing soon, as earlier it was revealed that Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 was pushed back to February 11. The delay was revealed in a trailer that went live during the 2024 Gamescom Opening Night Live show.
