Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has a weight-holding look. The fresh trim introduced in Patch 1.2 doesn’t just make Henry look sharper. It directly affects how the world reacts to him.
Warhorse Studios currently has barbers available at Zhelejov and Kuttenberg, with hairstyles and whiskers that affect Henry’s ability to charm, persuade or threaten NPCs.
So whether you are trying to get a favor with the nobility or negotiate a back alley deal, the favor lies in the way you develop yourself.
“Even a great warrior must visit a barber from time to time. Henry can adjust his hairstyle and facial hair with the hands of Zhelejov and Kuttenberg’s skilled barbers.”
Kingdom’s Barber Mode Comes: Rescue 2 is a big deal
At first glance, barbers may seem like a minor addition to a patch that offers over 1,000 fixes and quality of life improvements. But in the Kingdom, Rescue 2, grooming reflects your journey.
This also plays gameplay. KCD2’s charisma affects everything from store owner discounts to Henry’s ability to seek information. The sturdy Henry will give him some respect among the mercenaries, but he must be well-maintained to shake up the nobles. The ball is on your court.
