The Foxpedal Kingdom Combo V2 Overdrive is a Klon-style overdrive from FoxPedal that pairs a Klone circuit with its own distinct character and an independent boost footswitch, so drive and boost can be used separately or together1. Delicious Audio's Paolo De Gregorio described the Kingdom V2 as a Klon Centaur style overdrive with higher voltage headroom, a clipping switch, an overdrive switch and true bypass2.
What it does
The pedal is built around a Klon Centaur style circuit, but FoxPedal added switching that changes how the drive clips. The two toggle switches are soft and hard clipping switches, with the soft one labeled OD and the hard one labeled CLIP4. The OD toggle turns the soft clipping stage on or off, and the CLIP toggle does the same for the hard clipping stage1. That gives a player several clipping combinations from one box, which is the main way it departs from the original design.
The boost side has its own footswitch and its own Focus and Level controls, so it can be stacked on the drive for solos or run on its own as a boost31.

What reviewers said
Guitar Pedal X's Stefan Karlsson, reviewing it in his Klone capsule collection, called it "One of my earliest Klones - and a really smart one - helped by Soft and Hard Clipping Mods, and with a Focused Boost on" board, and judged it a really smart Klone, very close to top tier. He added that he loves all five of his Foxpedal units and was sad the builder retired overall3.
"It is essentially a Klone pedal with its own distinct character and independent boost footswitch"
Availability
The Kingdom Combo V2 is discontinued. It was listed at $239 with a discontinued marker3. The pedal was still part of Foxpedal's current range as of May 20215, so it left the lineup at some point after that. Foxpedal's other drives, such as the Kingdom V2 single version and The City overdrive/boost, share the same family approach.
Because the Kingdom Combo V2 is discontinued, new units are no longer sold by the maker. Anyone looking for one is shopping the used market.

Questions
Is the Foxpedal Kingdom Combo V2 still available?
No. Guitar Pedal X listed the Kingdom Combo V2 Overdrive as discontinued in its September 2025 Klone capsule collection, with a list price of $239 at the time it was sold. Foxpedal itself went through a shutdown in 2018 and was later taken over by new management, so the pedal now turns up secondhand rather than new.
What makes the Kingdom Combo V2 different from a standard Klon-style pedal?
Guitar Pedal X describes it as essentially a Klone pedal with its own distinct character and an independent boost footswitch. It also adds two clipping toggles, one for soft clipping labelled OD and one for hard clipping labelled CLIP, which let you change how the drive section clips, something the original Klon Centaur design does not offer.
