Update 1.2.2 Released for Deliverance 2

The recent Update 1.2.2 for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, which just went live, is smoothing out lingering issues and adding some specific improvements for different platforms. This sequel, eagerly awaited by fans, continues to thrive since its launch earlier this year, and the dedicated team behind it is still hard at work delivering much-needed fixes and bonus content to enhance the medieval RPG experience.

In its debut month in the U.S., Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 surpassed the sales of its predecessor fivefold, selling over a million copies on the first day alone and hitting two million within two weeks. Players are enjoying a far more polished experience compared to the original, which, despite its impressive realism, was plagued with bugs upon release. Warhorse Studios has been proactive in addressing these issues and responding to player feedback, ensuring the latest hotfix is available across all platforms.

The 1.2.2 hotfix tackles several gameplay and UI problems while also making platform-specific corrections. Fixes include resolving an issue where players found themselves trespassing in rented rooms after transitioning off and back onto the map, as well as a glitch in the "Into the Underworld" quest that led to Goatskin disappearing when loading earlier saved versions. Notably, the "New Game" option has been removed from the pause menu to prevent unintentionally overwriting saved progress. PC users can also rejoice as a problem involving the closure of the barber overlay by mouse, which previously disrupted the main menu, has been rectified.

Earlier, on March 13, the team at Warhorse Studios delighted fans with the first wave of free content updates, introducing features such as the barber, Hardcore mode, and new horse racing competitions. This update also brought a host of fixes and balancing adjustments, focusing on combat refinement, performance optimization, and more lifelike NPC behaviors. Looking ahead, players can anticipate the "Brushes with Death" DLC dropping this summer, followed by "Legacy of the Forge" and "Mysteria Ecclesia" slated for the fall and winter.

As enthusiasts venture through the virtual Kingdom of Bohemia, Easter eggs continue to pop up, with one user spotting an NPC nod to Cyberpunk’s Johnny Silverhand. Another player shared a striking in-game rendition of the Trosky Tower from the Czech Republic, meticulously crafted to mirror its real-world counterpart.

Here’s a quick rundown of the latest fixes and improvements from Hotfix 1.2.2:

• Room Renting: Addressed the issue where players were mistakenly marked as trespassing after revisiting rented rooms.
• User Interface: The New Game option, which had been causing accidental save overwrites, has been temporarily removed and will be replaced with a more secure version in upcoming updates.
• Into the Underworld Quest: Resolved Goatskin’s disappearance issue on saves carried over from previous versions.
• Platform-Specific Fixes:
  • PlayStation 5: Smoothed out visual glitches in Performance mode.
  • PC: Fixed an issue where the main menu could be broken by closing the barber overlay with a mouse.

These adjustments set the stage for an even more enjoyable gaming experience, and we appreciate all the community patience and support as refinements continue.
