It finally happened. During gamescom’s Opening Night Live 2025, Deep Silver and Warhorse Studios dropped a sizzle reel for Legacy of the Forge, the next story-driven DLC for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. In a crisp 30-second tease, we get our first peek at September 9, 2025, as launch day on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. And honestly? It might just be what veteran Henry fans have been craving.
A Glimpse at Kuttenberg’s Charred Past
That burnt-out forge in Kuttenberg isn’t just background scenery—it’s Henry’s ticket back to his roots. The official blurb spills that our knight-errant will don his blacksmith’s apron to rebuild the legendary forge where his father, Martin, once toiled as an apprentice. Cue the goosebumps. There’s something quietly powerful about retracing a parent’s footsteps—especially when you’re hammering red-hot steel in their honor.
More Than Just Swords and Suits of Armor
Sure, you’ll mend swords and fashion breastplates for the townsfolk, but Warhorse’s ambition doesn’t stop at the anvil. Legacy of the Forge introduces a robust home customization system—over 136 million ways to deck out Henry’s new digs. Seriously, that figure made me pause. Want a spartan workshop? You got it. A cozy study lined with tomes and trinkets? Also possible. It’s a sandbox within a sandbox, and I can’t wait to get lost in its nooks.
Pricing, Passes, and Perks
- Standalone cost: $13.99
- Expansion Pass bundle (includes Shields of Seasons Passing, Brushes With Death, Mysteria Ecclesiae): $30
- Gold Edition owners snag it for free
That price point feels fair—especially if you’ve already embraced the Pass. It’s like adding a robust chapter to a novel you’re already invested in.
Why This Matters
Look, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 isn’t about dragons or magic. It’s grounded, unpredictable, and rooted in real medieval grit. Legacy of the Forge leans into that strength by blending nostalgia with fresh mechanics. Will it top the drama of Shields of Seasons Passing? I wouldn’t bet against it.
Warhorse hints at more content rolling out before year’s end. If they keep this momentum, we’re in for one hell of a roadmap.
