Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Patch 1.2 adds highly-anticipated Barber Update and over 1,000 bug fixes

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Patch 1.2 has finally landed, delivering a massive overhaul packed with crucial bug fixes and the long-awaited Barber update. When KCD2 first arrived, longtime fans had wondered why the Barber feature was left out for launch. But now, that's all changed with the latest update, where Henry can get a fresh look from any barber in Zhelejov and Kuttenburg. There's even an option to give him a beard, from a goatee to a classic full beard. Image via Warhorse Studios I'd be curious to see what hairstyles the community comes up with through the new Steamworks modding support. There's already been a ton of creative mods floating around, and with the Barber Update in the mix, I'm sure we're about to get some seriously cool, fresh styles. Besides the new hairstyles and mod support, there are many bug fixes to explore. I don't even know where to start, considering that patch notes are around 34 pages. But let's kick things off with the overall performance and stability upgrades. We're talking smoother frame rates and some much-needed fixes to Kuttenburg's occasionally glitchy marketplaces—things are about to get a lot more polished. There are also platform-exclusive improvements for PlayStation 5, PC, Steam Deck, and Xbox Series X|S users. While the Steam Deck got a fix for its button prompts, the Xbox Series S will notice clearer visuals for in-game inventory icons. Out of all the bug fixes, the one I'm most excited about has to be the feature that disables the tutorial while riding the horse. This is the prompt that always tells you not to 'hold W' while traveling. It got a tad annoying with its frequent appearance, so I'm happy to finally see it gone. Given that the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Patch 1.2 is pretty hefty on bug fixes, you can bet that the new update will be significant. Some players have noted that it is about 55 GB to download, so you may need to check your storage space. However, it should be noted that the patch may take a while to appear, as some users have indicated that they have not seen it yet (myself included). Just give it some time, and it should eventually show up in your gaming queue.
