Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Update Adds Paid DLC and Free Horse Racing Feature

The first official paid DLC for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 has arrived, but it comes with a free surprise for players who have not purchased the DLC. The Brushes With Death DLC adds a new story for players to explore as Henry after making a chance encounter with a mysterious painter. Players will embark on a new quest with this DLC but can enjoy other content as well. But in addition to this paid DLC, a free update was also released which adds features such as a fixed location for horse racing and horseback archery contests so that players can compete outside of the horse races already in the game.

This is the first paid DLC for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, and it launched at $5.99. Players encounter a peculiar painter tied to a tree outside of Trosky Castle. This begins a unique quest that also unlocks a new shield-painting mechanic.

For those not looking to spend money, the horse racing update is also included with the latest patch. At the Nomad’s Camp, west of Zhelejov, players will meet Bibrek and Mikolaj who organize these races as well as horseback archery contests to partake in.
