Warhorse Studios is a Czech game development studio founded in 2011, best-known for the open-world action-adventure role-playing game Kingdom Come: Deliverance (2018). The studio is based in Prague, Bohemia, in the Czech Republic, and was acquired by THQ Nordic AB subsidiary Koch Media Group, now rebranded as PLAION, in 2019.
Warhorse Studios operates out of Prague in the Czech Republic and has been active since 2011. The company is part of the PLAION group following an acquisition by THQ Nordic AB subsidiary Koch Media Group in 2019. They have released a total of 13 games on PlayPile, all developed in-house while also publishing four titles under their own name. Their work focuses heavily on Adventure and Role-playing genres with thirteen entries in each category, alongside three Simulator titles. The studio reached almost every major platform from its first release in 2018 to its most recent output in 2025. PC (Microsoft Windows) sees all thirteen of their games, while Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 each host eight titles. The older generations like PlayStation 4 and Xbox One have five games apiece, and the Nintendo Switch hosts only two releases. Their output grew steadily from six games in the 2010s to seven in the 2020s, showing a consistent production schedule over the last decade. Quality trends for Warhorse Studios are strong based on their three rated titles. The average IGDB rating stands at 85.4 out of 100. They have two great titles that scored above 80 and one good title falling between 60 and 79. There are no mixed or poor ratings in their catalog. The most notable entry is Kingdom Come: Deliverance II from February 2025, which holds a 91.9/100 score. This follows the success of the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance from 2018 at 76.1 and its Royal Edition release in 2019 rated at 88.1. Recent activity shows continued support for their flagship series with multiple expansions arriving in 2025. The Mysteria Ecclesiae DLC released in November, while the Gallant Huntsman's Kit arrived in April. The main game and various editions like the Day One and Collectors' versions all hit stores in February of that year. Their catalog remains concentrated on historical open-world experiences rather than branching into other styles or genres. Players browsing for serious RPGs will find a consistent track record of high-quality development from this Czech team.
