Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has finally arrived, ending a long wait for fans of the series. Since the release of the first trailer, Warhorse Studios has promised to deliver an authentic and grounded open-world action RPG experience. The gameplay previews look promising, and excitement is high. However, before diving into the game, there are a few important considerations to keep in mind.
The USP of the Kingdom Come: Deliverance games is its story and setting. Every game in this franchise sticks to a particular setting and continues one story. This latest installment is not going to be an exception. So, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is set in the early 15th century, and just like the previous game, it will once again take players to an authentic and grounded recreation of Central Bohemia.
About the story, this latest entry will continue the story of the previous game because the developer has already mentioned that Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 is the direct follow-up to the 2018-released predecessor. This essentially means that blacksmith Henry is once again the central figure who will go through conflicts and dilemmas to accomplish his revenge.
The sequel is bigger and seems to be better than the previous one. To spread the gameplay, this latest entry has two maps: Bohemian Paradise and the City of Kuttenberg. The latter is added as a new POI in the game. The City of Kuttenberg is portrayed as the world's biggest hub for trading and civilization. This is going to play a massive role in the adventure of Henry.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance’s combat system was kind of problematic for gamers. The sequel has revised the combat mechanism of the game and added several new advantages and disadvantages of the weapons that must be learned before diving into the game.
Spending a few hours in the game will unlock the Combat Training side quest for gamers. This opportunity must not be skipped to master the combat mechanism of the game. This training will allow players to learn the basics of the combos and the techniques of using some of the toughest fighting mechanics. This lesson will help players until the end of the game.
While playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, ensure the in-game appearance is neat and clean. Often players will encounter muddy areas and get dirty. Keep washing hands and clothes. The game offers three types of cleaning processes: wash at troughs around towns, wash at a laundry near the lakes, or go for a bath. Each process costs some in-game currency, but the third option will give the best result.
Generally, completing side quests gives players in-game currencies. The process is the same in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, but with a little twist. Here, side quests do not always reward money, but sometimes they require money to be completed. Therefore, a stable stock of in-game currency should always be with players to progress through the game.
As players start progressing through the game, eventually, they will start getting notifications about nests being discovered. As soon as this notification appears, players must crouch and throw stones to destroy these nests. Well, the crouch part is essential because somehow Henry is not convinced to throw stones while standing. Anyway, the main motive is to destroy these nests and find valuable items inside.
Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is available on all platforms, including PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5. At this point, no Nintendo Switch version of the game is available, but the 2018 version of the game received a Switch port earlier this year. Considering this, it seems that gamers will probably get a Switch 2 port sometime. That’s a speculation at this point, though.
These are almost everything one should know about the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. Knowing these before diving into the gameplay will help players understand the game and make strategies accordingly.
