Guides & Reference

Guide

Beginner’s Guide

Why Henry loses every fight, the three lessons that fix it, and the hour in which three trophies are decided.

Guide

Combat

How the first game’s swordplay works, why it feels unfair until it does not, and what each weapon is for.

Guide

Skills & Perks

Four stats, seventeen skills, and the rule that everything grows by being used — or by skill books and paid trainers.

Guide

Best Perks

Fewer perks than the sequel and more trade-offs: the ones the guides agree on for a first Henry.

Guide

Walkthrough

The main story in three stretches, where the side quests live, and the two quests that close them.

Guide

Expansions & Editions

What each DLC adds, when it opens, and which version of the game you should be buying today.

Guide

Hardcore Mode

What the free 2018 mode removes, the negative perks, and why it is the second playthrough.

Guide

Trophies

Twelve missables, three of them for the whole game, and the eighty quests that make Completionist easier than it sounds.

Guide

Alchemy & Crafts

The potion table you brew by hand, the herbs that pay for it, and the maintenance nobody does until their sword breaks.

Guide

The World

How each town judges Henry, what a crime costs, and what every settlement on the map is for.

Guide

Horses

Every stable’s horses with their numbers: three stables in the base game (From the Ashes adds Pribyslavitz), one free Pebbles, and Warhorse Jenda at the top.

Guide

Tips

Short, in no order, and mostly learned by reloading.

Guide

History & Lore

The real raid, the real lords, and the war between two brothers that Henry walks into.

Guide

FAQ

Which version, how long, whether to play it before the sequel, and the save system everyone asks about.

About this guide

Kingdom Come: Deliverance is the game that started it: Henry of Skalitz, whose village Sigismund’s Cumans burn in the first hour, and who spends the rest of the game learning to fight, read, ride and lie well enough to find the man who did it. No dragons, no chosen one — a real corner of medieval Bohemia, twenty-nine main quests, fifty-odd side quests, four story expansions and a save system that runs on schnapps. Out since 13 February 2018, on Switch since 2024 and native on PS5 and Xbox Series since 13 February 2026, with more than ten million copies sold. This guide walks the story in seven chapters, tracks every quest, trophy, potion, map and expansion, and explains what the game deliberately leaves you to discover: the five-direction combat, the master strike, alchemy, reputation, the two points of no return, hardcore mode and the 50 trophies — including the three that a single careless hour can void.
