Deliverance 2’s New Sales Milestone May Have Tipped the GOTY Scales in Its Favor

Ever since its release, Warhorse Studios’ Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has achieved incredible critical and commercial success, with the game selling leaps and bounds over its predecessor. The year’s not even halfway done, and it already stands as a very formidable contender for Game of the Year.

That’s not to say that this year isn’t packed with heavy hitters. Even with GTA 6’s delay, we have much to look forward to, such as Doom: The Dark Ages, Ghost of Yotei, Death Stranding 2, and more. In fact, the last time a year was this packed with glorious titles was probably 2023. But there’s a significant factor that can give Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 an edge over other competing titles in the GOTY race.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 sells three million copies in three months

Warhorse Studios took to various social media platforms to announce that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has sold three million copies in just three months after its initial launch, and the entire franchise has sold ten million copies to date. Both of these sales numbers are extremely impressive, and this cements Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 as one of the most successful games of 2025.

Although the game has way too many reasons to win, this sales milestone may have just tipped the GOTY scales in its favor and given it an edge over other competing titles. If we just look at how much work went into creating this game and making it historically accurate, then at this point, the GOTY nomination is simply all but confirmed.

Unsurprisingly, the unfortunate and expected delay of Grand Theft Auto VI has proven fruitful for other developers and publishers, and that is another factor that pretty much solidifies Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s GOTY spot. Rockstar’s sixth instalment in the GTA series was supposed to release this year, but after nearly two years of radio silence, the studio finally announced that it will not be releasing this year and will instead release in May of next year.

While GTA VI’s delay may be another stepping stone for KCD2’s GOTY win, one game has already challenged its throne. Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 stands as an extremely strong competitor against Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, as it reached one million copies sold in just three days after its release (barring Game Pass subscribers), thus setting a new standard for gaming. But we’ll have to wait and see how their inevitable battle at the Game Awards turns out.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 may have a strong narrative and gameplay, but it seems that it has even stronger legs as the game doesn’t seem to stop with its content updates. The developers at Warhorse Studios are hard at work, releasing DLCs and balance patches regularly to make the game as good and as polished as possible.

With these impressive content updates and insane sales numbers, does Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 have what it takes to beat out all the other titles and reign supreme as the ultimate Game of the Year? If not, then what’s your Game of the Year? Let us know your thoughts and opinions in the comment section below!
