Ok, I am getting about 5 hours of sleep a night, so maybe the brain is just sputtering, but what do you mean? Predator?

Ok, I am getting about 5 hours of sleep a night, so maybe the brain is just sputtering, but what do you mean? Predator? Sorry. To the right of the reveal text, my first thought was that is looks like the face of the Predator (the movie monster). Now I can't see it after seeing the full picture.

Yeah I have no idea what's going on over there. It's the same people working from the beginning so it's not like they had a major shakeup. Looks like mission creep got a hold of them.

Most of the online publications I've seen say it's going to be KCD2 (including some Czech ones with supposedly good inside access). But why the non-period poster image then? Seems either strange or very low effort. Or trolling/trying to generate hype with controversy.

Looks great! Most shocking part: it's slated to be released this year! Obviously might still slip later on, but damn, that was a quick 6 years! With all the negative rumors floating around, I was bracing myself for the worst. As far as the trailer itself, Henry is back... He is a little too ... peasantlike for my tastes for a medieval adventure, as I mentioned before would've preferred a more grizzled, Crusader veteran type character if I had my way, but beggars cant be choosers, I will take this! Looks like early firearms are in, as rumors speculated before. Most likely set during Hussite wars. Definitely hope they streamline the combat for the sequel. The base combat in the original was fantastic, but it had some rough edges, for example they need to remove masterstrike, that just ruined everything (I had to remove it via mods), make switching aim in melee easier (very clunky in the original), would love if they added directional blocking ala Warband. Going to watch one of those "let's break down the nth degree detail in the trailer" videos later. Who is excited?

Some great additional info videos: Double the map size of KCD, only 2 loading screens in the entire game, and you can get branded for crimes!

Looks really good. I like how they've aged Henry and made him look like less of a dweeb and the actor changed his voice to reflect wear and tear. Very cool. I'm optimistic once more.
