Warhorse Studios is putting the finishing touches on a brutally challenging hardcore mode for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Recently, they announced via Discord that a select group of 100 volunteer testers are putting the mode through its paces. Recruitment is now closed, signaling the final stages of development are underway.
While details remain scarce, expect a difficulty level comparable to, or exceeding, the first game's notoriously tough hardcore mode. Recall the original Kingdom Come: Deliverance's hardcore mode? Think limited saves, amplified enemy damage, treacherous navigation, stingy gold rewards, and punishing negative perks. Deliverance 2's hardcore mode will likely build upon and enhance these features.
Testers are under strict NDAs, preventing the release of screenshots or videos. However, their involvement hints at an imminent official announcement. This hardcore mode will arrive as a free update, ensuring all players can experience the heightened challenge.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is available now on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, offering a richly immersive medieval RPG experience set in Bohemia. With the upcoming hardcore mode, Warhorse Studios aims to satisfy both newcomers and veterans craving a truly demanding test of their skills.
