Magic-Free Medieval RPG Kingdom Come Gets Gorgeous E3 Teaser Trailer

Warhorse Studios on Friday released an E3 teaser trailer for its upcoming no-fantasy medieval role-playing game, Kingdom Come: Deliverance. The short video, which represents actual in-game footage, shows a swordfight between two combatants in a gorgeous, flower-filled and sun-splashed setting.

Some sequences depict sword combat from a tense-looking first-person perspective, as the view is obstructed by the character's bulky helmet. The video is meant to highlight some of the swordfighting techniques that Warhorse will talk more about at E3 later this month.

Kingdom Come is set in 1403 in medieval Europe. Overall, it aims to to blend elements of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, The Witcher, and Red Dead Redemption.

Funded through Kickstarter, Kingdom Come is in development for PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. A release date for the full version has not been announced, but the game's alpha period remains ongoing. In fact, Warhorse also today released a new video update that covers some of the new features included with the latest version of the game. You can watch that video at the bottom of this post.

Kingdom's Come project lead is Daniel Vavra, who co-created the Mafia franchise. For a deeper dive into Kingdom Come, check out GameSpot's in-depth interview with Vavra.
