Kingdom Come: Deliverance PS5 upgrade accidentally revealed

Kingdom Come: Deliverance appears set to receive a PlayStation 5 upgrade after details were accidentally posted and then removed from the PlayStation Store. As reported by Video Games Chronicle, the leaked description mentioned significant graphical improvements including 4K resolution and improved framerate. The information was quickly scrubbed from European PlayStation Store pages, suggesting an official announcement is imminent.

What the leak revealed

A Reddit user initially spotted changes to the Italian PlayStation Store description for Kingdom Come: Deliverance's PS4 version. The updated text included a new paragraph detailing PS5 enhancements that read: "The PS5 version of Kingdom Come: Deliverance now features graphical updates including 4K resolution, improved framerate, high-resolution textures and many more. Medieval Bohemia has never been so beautiful."

Similar updates appeared across European PlayStation Store pages before being swiftly removed. The coordinated nature of the posting and removal suggests this was an accidental early reveal rather than speculation.

Significant visual improvements expected

The leaked PS5 upgrade would represent a substantial improvement over the original console versions. Kingdom Come: Deliverance launched on PlayStation 4 at 900p resolution running at 30 frames per second, whilst the PS4 Pro version managed 1080p at 30fps.

The promised 4K resolution and improved framerate would bring the console version much closer to PC visual quality. The addition of high-resolution textures suggests Warhorse Studios has invested significant effort in enhancing the game's medieval Bohemian setting for current-generation hardware.

Official announcement expected soon

The rapid removal of the PlayStation Store descriptions strongly indicates an official announcement is planned in the near future. Neither Warhorse Studios nor Sony has confirmed the upgrade officially, though the accidental posting suggests marketing materials are already prepared.

It remains unclear whether the upgrade will be free for existing owners or require a separate purchase. The leak also doesn't mention whether Xbox Series X|S or Nintendo Switch 2 versions are in development, though such upgrades would be typical for a multi-platform release.
