Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 presents a challenging gameplay experience. If you're wondering about difficulty adjustments, here's the information you need.
Difficulty Settings in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
The game currently lacks adjustable difficulty settings. There's a single, default difficulty level, offering a consistent gameplay experience for all players. However, the game's difficulty naturally eases as you progress and gain experience.
To improve your early game experience:
- Prioritize finding a bed: Sleeping allows saving and healing, crucial for survival, especially as nighttime travel is risky.
- Follow the main questline: Begin with "Wedding Crashers" to learn fundamental game mechanics.
- Complete early quests: Quests for the blacksmith or miller provide valuable experience, Groschen (currency) for supplies, and a gentle introduction to the game's systems.
- Utilize Saviour Schnapps: While the game auto-saves at quest checkpoints, actively use Saviour Schnapps for manual saves during open-world exploration.
Hardcore Mode
A Hardcore Mode is planned and will be added via a post-release update. This mode will significantly increase the challenge by enhancing enemy strength and imposing a negative starting perk. Crucially, difficulty cannot be adjusted once a Hardcore game is started.
