About
Kingdom Come: Deliverance will utilize a classless role-playing game system, allowing players to customize their skills to take on roles such as a warrior, bard, thief or something in between. Abilities and stats will grow depending on what the player does and says through branched dialogue trees. During conversations the time a player takes to make a decision is limited and will have an effect on their relationships with others. Reputation will be based on player choices and will carry consequences.

Critic reviews
- 6.5Historical realism and a unique premise when marketing that to players can only carry the game so far, and with every passing hour the constant inconsistencies, graphical issues, and oddball game mechanics become problematic to the overall experience. There is a good game in Kingdom Come, and it does shine through at times, but often it is an exercise of tedium to overcome its flaws. For players willing to push through those flaws though, Kingdom Come is a game worth trying for yourself.
- 7.0Kingdom Come: Deliverance satisfies that itch if you are looking for something a little different than typical western high fantasy or Japanese style RPGs. It's rough around the edges and some narrative & mechanical quirks don't always hit their mark, but it's still an enjoyable experience if you can put up with a little bit of uneveness.
- Despite all the problems I listed above, Kingdom Come: Deliverance isn’t actually a bad game. It’s quite fun and will definitely appeal to medieval history buffs and/or those who are big into RPGs. If you can push past the first few hours you’ll start getting used to the way things are and it only really takes off from there. Do you want to be a noble knight or a scoundrel? Do you want the villagers to love or hate you? Will you kill those who surrender to you or let them live? It’s all up to you. You have a lot of choice and while a lot of things aren’t great in this game, they’re not awful either. The story is compelling enough and the progress is real.
- While I have come out of Kingdom Come: Deliverance somewhat disappointed, Warhorse Studios still did deliver on their original KickStarter promise of creating a realistic RPG unlike any other. While the developers did squeeze as much potential as their studio could out of this concept, to sometimes remarkable results, Kingdom Come: Deliverance may have been a tad too bit ambitious for them on a technical level, and it really shows.
- 8.0A lot of this may be down to my hardware, but it’s the same hardware which provided a perfectly playable experience in Assassin’s Creed Origins, one of the most demanding games around. If there’s the slightest doubt that your PC is going to struggle to run Kingdom Come: Deliverance at playable frame rates then I have to recommend you take a wait and see approach in order to see how it’s patched over the coming months.
Gamer reviews
Great game, but not perfect.
This is actually a great game. There is no fail in doing every mission. The only fail is if your character's dead. That's it. Yes, there is no such multiple ending. But, the progress on reaching that ending can be different each play, depends on how do you want to play your character. The only bad thing for me is the fight mechanic. The tutorial told you that you have to guess where and when your enemy will hit you, and no matter how bad you are as long as you can move correctly you can defend or dodge their attack. Well, WRONG!!! THIS IS A GRINDING GAME!!! Do you want to win every encounter? Well, grind level and status and gears.
Best Medieval RPG
KC:D is the best RPG game, if not one of the top amongst the Best. I love everything about the game, I love the characters, The story is top-notch, music it really fits everything, the world is very believable and brutal like medieval era. One of the best things came from kick-started. God be with you, Henry!
The best game I have ever played. It left such a memorable impression on me. There is something so magical and so immersive about this game. I really feel like you are Henry living in this mediaeval town. I wish there were games like this on the market.
