Gamers have noted the visual similarities between Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and its predecessor, released seven years prior. However, blogger NikTek's comprehensive video comparison reveals substantial graphical advancements.
The video showcases Warhorse Studios' significant improvements, particularly in animation and physics. Enhanced shaders and textures elevate the visual fidelity, but the most striking changes are in character animation and environmental interaction.
Lighting and dynamic weather effects are dramatically improved, as clearly demonstrated around the two-minute mark. The video also highlights a refined horse control system (minute seven) and more responsive NPC behavior (minute five).
While not a complete visual overhaul, these enhancements—improved graphics, realistic details, and refined physics—promise a richer and more engaging gameplay experience.
