This was so that the performances remained consistent over a long period of development. Since the game has a large story, actors have to remember a lot. Dale humorously noted the initial cutscenes looked funny, but assured fans that the final product has come a long way.

The game will introduce new weapons, including crossbows and early firearms, adding to the authenticity of the medieval setting. Kuttenberg, a significant location in the game, is expected to be a standout feature, offering a large, explorable medieval city that plays a crucial role in the narrative.

The sequel aims to build on the success of the original game, which sold around six million units despite some technical criticisms. Warhorse Studios, now boasting a team of 250 employees, has grown considerably and is determined to deliver a more polished and expansive experience. 

The sequel is set to launch on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5 later this year, and fans are eagerly awaiting their return to medieval Bohemia. It’s been 6 years since the first game came out.
