Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 isn't a walk in the park; it presents a significant challenge. If you're wondering about difficulty adjustments, here's the lowdown.
Does Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Have Difficulty Options?
The short answer is no. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 doesn't offer in-game difficulty settings. You can't adjust the difficulty to make it easier or harder. The game features a single, default difficulty level. However, the game's difficulty tends to lessen as you progress and gain experience.
Here are some tips to help ease your journey:
- Find a bed quickly: Sleeping allows you to save and heal. Nighttime travel is risky, so rest is crucial.
- Prioritize the main questline: Begin with "Wedding Crashers."
- Complete quests for the blacksmith or miller: These early quests provide a gentle introduction to gameplay and earn you some much-needed Groschen.
- Utilize Saviour Schnapps: While the game auto-saves at quest checkpoints, actively use Schnapps to save your progress in the open world.
How to Unlock Hardcore Mode
For those seeking a truly grueling experience, a Hardcore Mode is planned. This will arrive via a post-launch update, increasing the difficulty by making enemies tougher and starting you with a negative perk. Important note: Once you begin a Hardcore playthrough, you cannot change the difficulty.
