Warhorse Studios is officially calling on the community to secure a nomination for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II in the Steam Awards Game of the Year category.
Since its release in February, Henry of Skalitz's journey has defined the 2025 RPG landscape. The developers are asking fans to cast their nominations on Steam, emphasizing that this specific award is vital because it relies entirely on player sentiment rather than a panel of critics. Warhorse noted that nominations help the game reach wider audiences who might have missed out on this deep historical simulation.
Why the Steam Awards Matter
Unlike The Game Awards or other industry-judged ceremonies, the Steam Awards are a direct reflection of what people are actually playing and enjoying. For a title like Kingdom Come: Deliverance II—which prides itself on uncompromising realism, complex combat mechanics, and historical authenticity—winning a community-voted award validates the studio's decision to stick to its vision rather than watering down the experience for mass appeal.
Does Henry deserve the crown?
If you have spent the last year immersed in 15th-century Bohemia, mastering the longsword or navigating the treacherous politics of the royal courts, this is your chance to make it count. The nomination period is currently active on Steam. Players can head to the store page to cast their vote for the Game of the Year category, ensuring Henry's rise from a blacksmith's son to a legend is recognized by the platform's massive user base.
