News: Now your experience can be even more challenging as you face some new obstacles, realistic combat and more.

Warhorse Studios has just released a new Hardcore mode for their title, Kingdom Come: Deliverance. This new content will be available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC. The Hardcore Mode turns Kingdom Come: Deliverance into a true survival RPG. No visible health or stamina bar, no more autosaving, plus even more realistic combat and world navigation. Following the sun and studying the detailed world maps will be crucial to navigate through the vast countryside of Bohemia. Are you ready for a truly medieval experience?

Hardcore Mode introduces unusual perks, like Brittle Bones, Nightmares or Claustrophobia to test the player’s skill. The player will have to choose at least two and they will stay with him for the whole game. Finishing the game with all perks will unlock new achievements. Alongside today’s release Deep Silver and Warhorse Studios also reveal a first glimpse of the upcoming story DLC, From The Ashes (see below), which will release soon.

If you aren’t familiar with Kingdom Come: Deliverance, it is a story-driven open world RPG that immerses you in an epic adventure in the Holy Roman Empire. Avenge your parent’s death as you battle invading forces, go on game-changing quests, and make influential choices. You will be able to explore majestic castles, deep forests, thriving villages and countless other realistic settings in medieval Bohemia.

Some of the features for Kingdom Come: Deliverance include:

Massive Realistic Open World - Majestic castles, vast fields, all rendered in stunningly high-end graphics.

Non-linear Story - Solve quests in multiple ways, then face the consequences of your decisions.

Challenging Combat - Distance, stealth, or melee. Choose your weapons and execute dozens of unique combos in battles that are as thrilling as they are merciless.

Character Development - Choose your equipment, improve your skills and earn new perks.

Dynamic World - Your actions influence the reactions of the people around you. FIght, steal, seduce, threaten, persuade or bribe. It’s all up to you.
