Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 has recently been thrust into the public eye due to the actions of activists, including notable figures like Grummz, who have taken issue with the game's content. The controversy ignited after reports surfaced of the game being banned in Saudi Arabia, sparking widespread rumors about specific content and so-called "progressive" ideas being embedded in the game. These rumors have led to a social media backlash against the developers, with some activists attempting to cancel the project and dissuade the public from supporting what they perceive as problematic content.
In response to the uproar, Tobias Stolz-Zwilling, the PR manager at Warhorse Studios, has issued a statement urging the public to trust the developers rather than unverified online rumors. Stolz-Zwilling emphasized the importance of waiting for official information from the studio, rather than jumping to conclusions based on hearsay.
Further addressing the community, Stolz-Zwilling announced that review codes for Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 will be distributed in the coming days, following the game's achievement of gold status in early December. These codes are scheduled to be sent out four weeks prior to the game's release, allowing streamers and reviewers ample time to form their initial impressions and prepare their reviews.
Interestingly, Stolz-Zwilling also mentioned that the first "final previews" based on segments of the game from the review version should be available just a week after the codes are distributed. This move is intended to provide the gaming community with early insights into the game's final form, helping to quell speculation and build anticipation for the release.
