Webedia is expanding its international footprint with Platinum, a new documentary format spotlighting the people and pivotal moments behind today’s biggest games. The premiere episode, The Final Countdown, follows Warhorse Studios in the final 24 hours before the launch of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Simultaneously, Webedia is launching Find Your Next Game, a new English-language YouTube channel by GameStar, designed for a global audience.
With “The Final Countdown”, Webedia proudly presents the first episode of its new international documentary and premium video brand Platinum – a series dedicated to the people, passion, and pivotal moments that define modern gaming. This premiere episode follows Warhorse Studios during the final 24 hours before the global release of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2.
Fully produced and financed by Webedia, the documentary brings together editorial talent from across Europe, created in close collaboration with GameStar (Germany), 3DJuegos (Spain/Latam), Jeux Vidéo (France), and GRYOnline.pl (Poland).
Originally developed by 3DJuegos as a successful high-quality format, Platinum now enters its next stage as an international series co-produced by Webedia’s leading gaming brands. It also marks the official launch of Find Your Next Game – a brand-new English-language YouTube channel presented by GameStar and based on the successful livestreaming event series FYNG, created for a global gaming audience.
Inside the Launch of One of 2025’s Most Anticipated Games
Shot in February 2025 in Prague, “The Final Countdown” captures the final hours at Warhorse Studios before the release of the acclaimed sequel. From the retrospective on developing both games in the franchise, visiting a private release party to the team’s first reactions to reviews and the live launch moment, the film offers an exclusive, intimate look at how Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 came to life.
“We wanted to show the people behind creating and launching a game of this scale with all the struggles and emotions that come with it. The Final Countdown isn’t just about a release of KCD 2 – it’s the end of a years-long journey,” says Michał Mańka, Director and Host of the documentary, and international Video Lead of Find Your Next Game.
A Strategic Milestone in Webedia’s Global Gaming Expansion
The documentary represents a key moment in Webedia’s international video strategy. With the launch of the Platinum IP and Find Your Next Game on a global level, Webedia expands its multi-language, multi-brand editorial network to reach new audiences across borders.
“Platinum was created to tell the human stories behind games— real people, real challenges, real passion. Backed by the combined strengths of our international brands across Europe and LATAM, we’re creating our most compelling content yet — rooted locally, and built to travel globally. In today’s media landscape, original and authentic storytelling isn’t optional — it’s how you stay relevant.
And this is just the beginning. With Find Your Next Game, we’re building a global platform to be able to share those stories with the world” — Dawid Hallmann, Executive Lead of the initiative, Director Gaming & Tech at Webedia
“The idea of an English-language Webedia channel is not new, but until now it seemed difficult to implement. I am therefore all the happier that we have been able to gain Michał Mańka, an excellently networked and committed journalist, who will drive this strategically important project forward and at the same time further strengthen the Find Your Next Game brand and international cooperation across all Webedia channels,” adds Michal Graf, Head of Video Publishing at Webedia.
