After a whirlwind launch that saw Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 fly off digital shelves with over one million copies sold in just 24 hours, Warhorse Studios is wasting no time in enhancing the medieval RPG experience for its dedicated player base. The latest 1.2 update, hot off the digital presses, promises a plethora of fixes, improvements, and new features aimed at immersing players even deeper into its meticulously crafted world.
In this latest patch, Warhorse has focused on refining combat mechanics, enhancing NPC interactions, fine-tuning animations, and boosting overall performance to provide a smoother and more seamless gameplay experience. One notable addition includes an update to the physics system, which should add a touch of realism to your parsnip – and no, that’s not code for anything else.
The patch notes for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s 1.2 update are extensive, covering a wide range of tweaks and enhancements. However, the standout features include the introduction of barber shops and PC mod support. Players can now visit Zhelejov and Kuttenberg to give protagonist Henry a fresh new look with various hairstyle and facial hair options. Beyond mere aesthetics, these changes can also provide temporary buffs to Henry’s charisma, adding a strategic element to personal grooming.
The addition of mod support opens up a world of possibilities for players eager to customize their gaming experience. With new tools and Steam Workshop integration, the community can now create, modify, and expand upon the existing game world, shaping their own unique adventures within the medieval setting.
Available for Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC, the 1.2 update represents the first in a series of planned post-launch content updates for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Future updates are set to include features such as horse racing and a challenging Hardcode Mode, along with three paid story expansions slated for release throughout the year.
While the game has garnered mixed reviews, with Eurogamer’s Katharine Castle noting both the frustrations and joys of the experience, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 continues to captivate players with its intricate storytelling and historical authenticity. As players delve deeper into the world of Henry and his adventures, the promise of new content and gameplay enhancements keeps the community engaged and eager for more.
As Warhorse Studios continues to expand and refine its RPG masterpiece, fans can look forward to a wealth of new experiences and challenges on the horizon.
