Kingdom Come Deliverance 2's upcoming update caters to players craving a heightened challenge. Warhorse Studios is introducing a hardcore mode, packed with selectable perks that inflict negative consequences on the protagonist, Henry. This significantly alters gameplay.
Several demanding perks are available, each presenting unique obstacles:
- Sore Back: Reduces Henry's carrying capacity and increases injury risk during foraging.
- Heavy Footsteps: Accelerates shoe wear and makes Henry's movements noisier, hindering stealth.
- Dimwit: Reduces experience gain by 20% (the patch notes hilariously reiterate this penalty).
- Sweaty: Makes Henry dirtier and smellier faster, affecting social interactions.
- Ugly Mug: Increases the chance of peaceful encounters escalating into brutal, no-surrender fights.
These additions promise a more immersive and difficult experience for players seeking a grueling adventure in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2.
