Daniel Vávra is stepping back from daily Creative Director duties at Warhorse Studios to focus on expanding the Kingdom Come brand into film and other media, while remaining involved with the studio in a broader capacity.

Studio head Martin Frývaldský stresses that this move is not a breakup; Vávra remains part of Warhorse in an expanded role overseeing the broader Kingdom Come project.

Warhorse confirms Vávra’s new focus as leading a live-action Kingdom Come film project with global ambitions, and a working script is already in place.

Interest in adapting Kingdom Come into film and TV has evolved since the first game’s 2018 release and gained momentum after the sequel’s success.

Earlier adaptation efforts are referenced, including a 2020 announcement involving Erik Barmack and Wild Sheep Content.

There is currently no definitive timeline or production details for the adaptation.

Deliverance 2 has been described as a confident, entertaining RPG, highlighting strong visuals and performances, contributing to the franchise’s momentum.

The piece notes a broader trend of game-to-film/TV adaptations, with recent successes reshaping expectations for such projects.

Warhorse remains a game developer, now under Embracer, with Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 selling over 5 million copies in its first year and a recent enhanced version released.

Warhorse intends to develop a Kingdom Come film or TV series aimed at a global audience, with negotiations on rights already underway and a narrative direction still being finalized.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 reportedly sold over one million copies in its first 24 hours, underscoring the property’s strong fanbase and potential screen audience.
