While Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 boasts only one true ending sequence—Henry reflecting on his journey with his parents—the specifics of that ending are shaped by your choices throughout the game. This guide outlines the decisions that lead to the most positive outcome.
The best ending hinges on your parents' pride in the man Henry has become. Several key choices directly impact this assessment:
- Supporting Semine in "Necessary Evil": Siding with Semine against Hashek ensures Semine's survival, even if he loses his estate.
- Rejecting the Dry Devil's Plan in "Dancing With the Devil": Refusing to participate in the Dry Devil's plan at Maleshov Fortress, even if it makes the quest more challenging, prevents the unnecessary killing of innocents.
- Markvart von Aulitz's Fate in "Reckoning": Allowing Markvart to die naturally, or offering him a merciful end, is preferable to outright murder.
- Sparing Brabant in "Reckoning": Choosing to spare Vauquelin Brabant, despite the subsequent complications, demonstrates mercy and avoids unnecessary violence.
- Demonstrating Remorse: Even if you’ve committed crimes, expressing remorse during the final conversation with Henry's parents contributes to a positive conclusion.
- Maintaining a Law-Abiding Approach: Minimizing criminal activity throughout the game also positively influences the final scene.
Semine vs. Hashek
In "Necessary Evil," choosing Semine over Hashek leads to a more favorable outcome, ensuring Semine's survival.
The Dry Devil’s Plan
In "Dancing With the Devil," rejecting the Dry Devil's plan, despite the increased difficulty, prevents needless bloodshed.
Markvart von Aulitz’s Fate
During "Reckoning," choosing to allow Markvart to die peacefully or offering him a dignified death earns a better ending than killing him.
Spare Brabant
Similarly in "Reckoning," sparing Brabant, despite the added challenges, reflects positively on Henry's character.
Show Remorse
Finally, expressing remorse for past actions during the final scene with Henry’s parents contributes significantly to the best ending.
This comprehensive approach ensures you achieve the most satisfying conclusion in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. For more game guides and insights, including locating all six Saint Antiochus' Dice and exploring romance options, visit The Escapist.
