Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 rockets past the first game's peak player count as it pips into Steam's top 100 most-played games

I have, in the past few days, written the word 'Bohemia' more than I ever have or likely ever will again in my professional life. It's down to the release of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, of course, Warhorse's really quite good medieval RPG set in the rambling forests and plains of, well, Bohemia.

I reckon quite a lot of people have the word on their minds, too. At time of writing, KCD2's peak concurrent player count on SteamDB is sitting pretty at 160,000 players. Not bad for a game with such a fanatical focus on (some kind of) realism that you can smell too bad for stealth.
