Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 players who craved a more challenging experience will soon get their wish. Warhorse Studios is releasing an update introducing a hardcore mode, packed with selectable perks that significantly increase the difficulty. These perks inflict various negative effects on Henry, altering gameplay in compelling ways.

Several challenging perks will be available, each adding a unique layer of complexity:

• Sore Back: Reduces Henry's carry weight and increases the risk of injury while gathering herbs and mushrooms.

• Heavy Footsteps: Accelerates shoe wear and makes Henry's movements louder, hindering stealth.

• Dimwit: Slows experience gain by 20%. (Yes, you read that right, 20% slower experience gain!)

• Sweaty: Causes Henry to get dirtier and smellier faster, impacting social interactions.

• Ugly Mug: Increases the likelihood of encounters escalating into difficult fights, as enemies will refuse to surrender.

These additions aim to deliver a more immersive and challenging experience for players seeking a truly grueling adventure in the world of Kingdom Come Deliverance 2.
