Warhorse Studios is finalizing a brutal hardcore difficulty mode for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Through Discord, developers confirmed testing has commenced with 100 selected volunteers evaluating the feature pre-launch. With tester recruitment now closed, the team advances toward completion.
A Familiar Yet Enhanced Challenge
While full details remain undisclosed, veterans can anticipate mechanics resembling the original game's punishing hardcore mode. The first Deliverance intensified gameplay through restricted saves, heightened enemy lethality, complex navigation, reduced monetary rewards, and debilitating perks. Deliverance 2 promises to amplify these elements for greater adversity.
Testing Under Strict Confidentiality
Selected participants operate under rigorous NDAs prohibiting screenshots or gameplay footage. This controlled testing phase suggests official announcements may follow shortly. Post-launch, the hardcore update will be freely accessible across all platforms.
Currently available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 transports players to medieval Bohemia's historically rich landscapes. This upcoming mode reaffirms Warhorse Studios' commitment to satisfying both RPG newcomers and battle-hardened veterans craving extreme immersion.
