Kingdom Come: Deliverance
Giant open-world RPGs like The Witcher 3 and Skyrim have made huge impacts on the industry and countless others have tried to fill that same role. Kingdom Come: Deliverance is different, however, as it’s an RPG that tries to be painstakingly historically accurate instead of filled with fantasy. Kingdom Come is set in the medieval kingdom of Bohemia in 1403 and it’s based on real world locations. You play as the son of a blacksmith whose entire family is killed by an invading army.
Kingdom Come puts a large emphasis on choice, creating branching narratives and an experience that encourages emergent gameplay. It nails historical details, like different helmet builds restricting your view in different ways and food items perishing over time. You can find even more details by checking out our preview from E3 earlier this year. It certainly sounds like a fairly hardcore experience, but fans of both open-world RPGs and historical pieces might find a lot to love in the title. Kingdom Come: Deliverance is scheduled to release on Feb. 13 so we won’t have to wait too much longer to find out.
