Fans of the original Kingdom Come Deliverance were likely quick to secure their copy of its sequel even before it hit the shelves. However, those who decided to hop on the bandwagon after soaking in the rave reviews might have missed out on a rather tempting pre-order bonus. The Lion’s Crest bundle was not only a trove of slick weapons and an eye-catching armor set but it even perked up Henry’s trusty horse with a standout caparison. Initially a draw for pre-ordering Kingdom Come Deliverance 2, it’s now available to everyone as a DLC, complete with its own little adventure to embark upon.
Originally donned by the legendary Sir Brunswick, the Lion’s Crest armor in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is quite the showpiece. Henry gets to sport an impressive ensemble of black, red, and gold plate armor topped off with a gleaming golden lion on the helmet—a real head-turner in the world of RPG armors. Your horse also gets in on the action with its own matching black and red caparison, ensuring both you and your steed are turning heads throughout the game’s expansive landscape. Completing the set are two weapons: a commanding polearm and a handy dagger.
However, don’t expect these prized pieces to just fall into your lap. You’ll have to earn them through a side quest that’s a true treasure hunt, taking you through various locales. No spoilers here, but rest assured, it’s a journey worth taking.
Now, Warhorse has leveled the playing field, giving all players a shot at the Lion’s Crest set by releasing it as a standalone DLC priced at $4.99 or £3.99. While the original pre-order crowd might feel a bit miffed that these coveted items are now freely available, they do have the small comfort of having snagged them at no extra cost initially.
Beyond the DLC, Warhorse had more in store with the announcement that Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 is now playable on GOG, in addition to its original launch on Steam and the Epic Games Store for PC enthusiasts.
