Hardcore Mode Coming to Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Warhorse Studios is preparing a brutally challenging hardcore mode for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. A recent Discord announcement revealed that a select group of 100 volunteers are currently beta testing this highly anticipated feature. Recruitment for testers has ended, signaling the mode's imminent release.

Details regarding the hardcore mode remain confidential, but players can anticipate a difficulty level comparable to, or exceeding, that of the original game's hardcore mode. Kingdom Come: Deliverance's hardcore mode famously limited saves, boosted enemy damage, complicated navigation, reduced rewards, and introduced detrimental perks. Deliverance 2's version is expected to expand on these elements, creating an even more demanding experience.

Due to strict non-disclosure agreements, testers are prevented from sharing any media (screenshots or videos). However, the testing phase's completion strongly suggests an official announcement and release of the hardcore mode is near. This challenging addition will be a free update, ensuring accessibility for all players.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is currently available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, providing a richly detailed historical RPG experience set in medieval Bohemia. The inclusion of the hardcore mode demonstrates Warhorse Studios' commitment to satisfying both new and veteran players seeking a truly formidable challenge.
