Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has got a brand new trailer at the Summer Game Fest 2024. The recently concluded event was filled with exciting releases and updates regarding the gaming world, like the release date reveal of Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero or the news of Valoarant coming to consoles.
However, instead of Deliverance 2, fans wanted another huge title. And during the announcement of the title, they thought they had got it, almost.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Gets a New Trailer at the Summer Game Fest 2024
In the recently concluded Summer Game Fest, this highly anticipated action RPG title from Warhorse Studios got a new trailer named ‘Saints and Sinners.’ However, fans were hoping for the release date, but the trailer ended with a generic release window of 2024.
The trailer showcased the main protagonist of the game, Henry, in some serious action when he knocked down enemies in duels, took fights in horseback combats, kicked ladders off the ledges, shot arrows from his bows, and many more. Not only that, but other significant characters from the game got their places in the trailer as well.
This open-world title was first announced in April, and this is going to be the sequel to the first game of the series, which was released over six years ago. The upcoming game will be based on the story of Henry of Skalitz, who will embark on his journey to avenge the murder of his parents in the 15th century in Bohemia.
Fans Might Have Wanted to Hear Something Other Than Kingdom Come, May Be Hearts
After the announcement in April 2022, another game for which fans have been waiting for a long is Kingdom Hearts 4. This is an action RPG title as well, from Square Enix, which has been in development since 2020. Everyone was rooting for the release date of this game at the Summer Game Fest 2024, but the event was disappointing to them.
There was a point in the event when show host Geoff Keighley almost announced the game at the event, initiating the announcement with “Kingdom,” but moments later it was found out that the announced game was Kingdom Come, not Kingdom Hearts. And this weird announcement style gave fans a heart attack.
Fuck you Geoff, you scared me. When he was introducing Kingdom come deliverance I thought he was going to say kingdom hearts.

Geoff said the word Kingdom only for it to be Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. He knew what he was doing 😭

Actually, there was no point in rooting for Kingdom Hearts 4 in the event because Keighley himself ruled out all the possibilities. In a Twitch stream earlier, the host stated:
“There will be, definitely, new announcements, “but the show is largely focused on, I think, existing games that have new updates for fans.”
He then went on to mention some of the games that wouldn’t be featured in Summer Game Fest, like Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, The Wolf Among Us 2, Judas, Five Nights at Freddy’s, and last but not least, Kingdom Hearts 4.
