Warhorse Studios has confirmed that Hardcore Mode is being added to Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 next week. They’ve also revealed the suite of new perks (read: punishing perks) coming to the game with the update. If you’ve been looking for a broader challenge in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, you won’t have long to wait.
Hardcore Henry
Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 stormed up the charts when it was released in February, going on to sell millions of copies and turn heads worldwide. In my review, I gushed over the game, labelling it a phenomenal, must-buy medieval experience.
Since the game hit the market, Warhorse Studios has applied a couple of updates, such as adding a barber mode to the open-world, cinematic epic.
Now, the Hardcore Mode promised at launch is on the way – and we know it’s going to arrive next week.
In the Hardcore Mode, players will find a tougher survival experience with limited ‘helpful’ mechanics like map markers and fast travelling.
Hardcore Mode is coming to #KCD2 next week. Pick your perks. Embrace the pain.
Here are all the new perks coming to the game with the Hardcore Mode:
- Numbskull
- Somnambulant
- Bad Back
- Picky Eater
- Bashful
- Sweaty
- Menace
- Hangry Henry
- Punchable Face
- Heavy Footed
They’re pretty much able to be taken at face value. I’m guessing Numbskull makes you less than intelligent, Bad Back renders you unable to carry much, and Sweaty means that you’re always stinking.
These perks add a neat layer to Hardcore Mode, which arrives in KCD2 next week. Are you excited to give the new mode a try? Let me know in the comments, or hit up the Insider Gaming forum.
