KCD 2 Hardcore Mode Unveils New Perks: Sore Back, Clumsy Steps

For players who felt that *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2* lacked sufficient difficulty, the developers at Warhorse Studios have exciting news. An upcoming update will introduce a hardcore mode, allowing players to activate specific perks that impose various negative effects on the protagonist, Henricus, thereby altering and enhancing the gameplay experience.

Players can choose from several challenging perks, each introducing its own set of complications:

  • The "sore back" perk reduces the maximum weight Henricus can carry and increases the risk of injury while foraging for herbs and mushrooms.
  • The "heavy footsteps" perk causes shoes to wear out faster and makes the character's steps louder, affecting stealth capabilities.
  • The "dimwit" perk slows experience gain by 20%, with the developers humorously emphasizing this drawback twice in the perk description.
  • The "sweaty" perk causes the main character to become dirtier and smellier more quickly, impacting social interactions.
  • The "ugly mug" perk raises the likelihood of random encounters turning into difficult fights, as enemies will no longer surrender and will fight until the end.

These additions are designed to provide a more immersive and challenging experience for players seeking a tougher adventure in the world of *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. With these new perks, Warhorse Studios aims to cater to the desires of those who crave a heightened level of difficulty and realism in their gameplay.
