Some gamers believe Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's visuals are nearly identical to its seven-year-old predecessor. However, blogger NikTek offers a detailed video comparison showcasing significant improvements. The video highlights enhanced animations and physics, significantly upgraded shaders and textures resulting in a higher-quality image. The most striking changes are in character animation and their interactions with the game world.

Noticeable improvements include enhanced lighting and dynamic weather effects, particularly evident around the two-minute mark. At the seven-minute mark, the upgraded horse control system is clearly visible. Improved NPC reactions to player actions are demonstrated at the five-minute mark.

In conclusion, while not revolutionary, the graphical enhancements, increased realism, and refined physics promise a richer and more engaging gameplay experience.
