Warhorse Studios has announced its target release window for the next major Kingdom Come: Deliverance game. The studio's communications director stated the new open-world RPG is aiming for the next financial year, which runs from April 2027 to March 2028. This follows the recent announcement of the new game and a separate Middle-earth RPG project.

Facts First

  • The next Kingdom Come game is targeting release in the 2027–2028 fiscal year, according to studio communications.
  • Warhorse Studios described the project as a new 'Kingdom Come open-world RPG' adventure in its announcement.
  • The studio, owned by Embracer Group, is also developing an open-world Middle-earth RPG.
  • Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has sold 5 million copies since its release.
  • A movie based on the franchise is currently in development.

What Happened

Warhorse Studios provided a target window for its next major project, the Kingdom Come: Deliverance series. Communications director Tobias Stolz-Zwilling stated during a community stream that, if everything goes right, the new 'Kingdom Come open-world RPG' will arrive in the next financial year. For Warhorse's parent company, Embracer Group, the next financial year (27/28) runs from 1 April 2027 to 31 March 2028. The studio formally announced this 'new Kingdom Come adventure' last week, alongside a separate open-world Middle-earth RPG.

Why this Matters to You

If you are a fan of the historically grounded, immersive role-playing of the Kingdom Come series, this announcement provides a concrete timeframe to anticipate. You can expect a new, large-scale adventure in the franchise within the next few years. The studio's parallel development of a Middle-earth RPG may broaden the appeal of its future work, though the specific focus for Kingdom Come fans remains on the next installment in its established world.

What's Next

Warhorse Studios will continue development on the new Kingdom Come RPG, with the stated goal of a release during the 2027–2028 fiscal year. The project's progress may be influenced by the studio's concurrent work on its Middle-earth title. Fans can also look forward to the ongoing development of a movie based on the Kingdom Come franchise.
