Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's visuals have sparked debate, with some claiming they're nearly indistinguishable from the seven-year-old original. To clarify the visual advancements, blogger NikTek has created a detailed video comparison.

The video showcases Warhorse Studios' significant graphical enhancements. Improvements are particularly evident in animations and physics. While upgraded shaders and textures boost overall image quality, the most striking changes are in character animation and their interactions within the game world.

Lighting and dynamic weather effects stand out, especially noticeable around the two-minute mark. Furthermore, the video highlights a refined horse control system (around the seven-minute mark) and improved NPC reactions to player actions (around the five-minute mark).

In conclusion, while not a radical visual overhaul, the refined graphics, enhanced realism, and updated physics suggest a richer and more immersive gameplay experience.
