Kingdom Come: Deliverance II – Vampire Crawlers? WTF?
Okay, Kingdom Come: Deliverance fans, brace yourselves. Warhorse Studios just dropped a seriously cryptic YouTube Short, and it’s got us all scratching our heads. Titled “Vampire Crawlers,” and flagged as sponsored by Plaion, it’s 11 seconds of… well, mostly darkness. But is it darkness with potential? You bet your sweet bippy it is.
- Warhorse Studios released a very short, very dark teaser called “Vampire Crawlers” for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II.
- It’s sponsored by Plaion.
- We have basically no information other than that, but the hype is real.
Why Should You Care? (Besides the Obvious)
Look, it’s Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. That alone is enough to send most of us medieval RPG nerds into a frenzy. The original game was a brutally realistic, deeply immersive, and often hilarious (in a “Henry’s come to see us!” kind of way) experience. The fact that we’re getting a sequel is already a win. But this teaser? This adds a whole new layer of intrigue. “Vampire Crawlers”? Is Henry about to trade his plate armor for a garlic necklace?
The fact that Plaion (formerly Koch Media) is sponsoring this also adds another layer to the hype. It likely means that Warhorse Studios is ramping up their marketing efforts, and that we should be getting more news and announcements soon.
- The teaser is called “Vampire Crawlers.”
- It is for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II.
- It is sponsored by Plaion.
- The video is 11 seconds long.
- It’s dark. Like, really dark.
What We Know (Which Isn’t Much)
Alright, let’s break down the 11 seconds of footage. It’s… dark. Very dark. We can make out some vaguely medieval-looking architecture, possibly a dungeon or cellar. There are some creepy, crawling sounds. And that’s about it. Seriously. It’s a masterclass in building suspense through minimal information.
So, what can we infer? The title “Vampire Crawlers” suggests some kind of monstrous enemy. This could be literal vampires (unlikely, but hey, anything is possible), or perhaps a more metaphorical interpretation – maybe bandits or disease-ridden peasants preying on the weak. Given the original game’s commitment to historical accuracy, the latter seems more probable, but who knows? Maybe Henry will be battling some bloodsuckers.
🎮 Controller Throw Risk: Low (unless you hate waiting for news).
- Replay Kingdom Come: Deliverance: Brush up on your combat skills and remind yourself why you love (or love to hate) Henry.
- Follow Warhorse Studios: Keep an eye on their social media channels and YouTube page for more announcements.
- Stock up on energy drinks: You’re going to need them for the inevitable late-night news drops.
- Adjust your brightness settings: Prepare for more dark teasers.
Where to Watch (and Rewatch, and Rewatch…)
You can watch the “Vampire Crawlers” teaser on the official Warhorse Studios YouTube channel: right here. Be warned: you’ll probably watch it multiple times trying to glean any hidden details. Don’t worry, we’re all doing it.
What’s Next?
The next real signal will be a longer trailer, a gameplay reveal, or an official release date announcement. Basically, anything with more substance than 11 seconds of darkness. Until then, we’ll be refreshing our browsers and dissecting every pixel of this teaser. Wish us luck… and maybe send us some coffee.
FAQ
Is Kingdom Come: Deliverance II confirmed?
Yes! While this “Vampire Crawlers” teaser doesn’t explicitly *say* “Kingdom Come: Deliverance II,” all signs point to it being the sequel. Plaion’s sponsorship and the Warhorse Studios channel pretty much confirm it.
Are there vampires in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II?
We don’t know for sure. The title “Vampire Crawlers” suggests the possibility, but it could be a metaphor for something else entirely. It is likely some kind of foe that is interpreted as a vampire, to align to the time period of the game.
When will Kingdom Come: Deliverance II be released?
The release date is currently unknown.
What platforms will Kingdom Come: Deliverance II be on?
The platforms are currently unknown.
Will Henry be the main character again?
We don’t have any information about the characters in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. It is likely, but not confirmed.
Who is Plaion?
Plaion, formerly Koch Media, is a video game publisher sponsoring this teaser.
Is this teaser scary?
It’s more atmospheric and suspenseful than outright scary. But if you’re easily spooked by darkness and creepy sounds, maybe watch it with the lights on.
Will the combat be as realistic (and difficult) as the first game?
We don’t know for sure, but given the original game’s commitment to realism, it’s likely that the combat will still be challenging.
Will there be archery in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II?
It seems likely given the prominence of archery in the first game. If they take it out, there will be riots.
Will I need to play the first game to understand the story of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II?
We don’t know for sure, but it’s probably a good idea to play the first game anyway. It’s excellent!
Will Henry still say “Jesus Christ be praised!”?
We can only hope. It wouldn’t be Kingdom Come without it.
Will this game melt my PC?
Potentially. The first game was notoriously demanding. Start saving up for that new graphics card now.
Is this game going to be historically accurate?
That’s a key part of the franchise, so it’s highly likely, though the “Vampire Crawlers” title throws a slight wrench in that assumption.
Where can I buy Kingdom Come: Deliverance II when it comes out?
