Kingdom Come Deliverance Update 1.18 (1.9.0 + 1.9.1) Patch Notes for PS4, Xbox One and PC

• All tutorials now have improved formatting.
• All tutorials were rewritten with an emphasis on clarity.
• Added some new tutorials.
• First combat tutorial with Bernard improved.
• Bernard now has his own map icon when ready to train Henry outside quests.
• Many confusing situations during the first hours of gameplay improved.

• We improved the environment and NPC positions for most of the events.
• Added better fast travel description to every event type.
• Player’s position now makes much more sense when pulled out of fast travel by an event.
• No event should catch the player again immediately after a successful evasion.
• Events were re-labeled. Traps and ambushes are no longer revealed to the player by the label. We apologize to all honest bandits in Rattay.

• You can now continue to date Theresa after “the act” (ahem).
• Be careful though, Theresa has a mind of her own and can even dump you…
• But if she likes you, she can help you in your endeavors.

• After the download of any new patch, all installed mods will be disabled and moved to a specific folder; the player will be notified by overlay in the main menu. We highly recommend only installing mods that have been updated to match the current game version.
• The game now handles installing and uninstalling mods containing new NPCs, items, perks and buffs much better. This should solve many corrupted saves.
• The game now visually marks any save that is modded or was created from a playthrough using mods. We can’t guarantee stability on these saves.

• We didn’t want to leave bandits and Cumans without pets, so we gave them dogs as well. Unfortunately, the dogs adopted their masters’ aggression and will attack Henry on sight…
• Players can now switch to simplified lockpicking for gamepad in-game settings.
• Changes made to enemies’ perception to improve stealth experience.
• Many NPCs will now take cover from the rain under roofs or trees.
• Item categories added to horse inventory.
• Guards now confiscate stolen items dropped near Henry when frisking him.
• Dogs will now fall asleep after eating food with sleeping potion.
• New first-person dialog camera added.
• The first quest for every DLC now has a custom map icon.
• Shooting on the move should be more precise now. The arrow was previously shot before the animation completely ended.
• Merchants now have correct purchase prices corresponding to their trade.
• The amount of Groschen on NPCs is now more accurately adjusted to their profession.

• Changing graphics settings is much faster now.
• We solved many performance peaks to optimize the game. Framerate should be more consistent now.
• Framerate in battles slightly improved by adjusting visual settings.
• We slightly improved framerate in the most demanding locations by removing some light sources.
• Graphical settings adjusted. Lower settings should look the same and run slightly faster. Higher settings should run the same and look slightly better.

• Fixed players reported glitches.
• Added fixes for framerate drop and freezing issues.
• Added fixes for stuttering/lag issues.
