Kingdom Come: Deliverance II has already captivated players with its realistic combat, historically inspired world, and deep storytelling. But if you're looking to tweak, enhance, or completely transform your medieval adventure, mods are the way to go. Whether you're new to the game or starting your second playthrough, mods can make the experience even more engaging.
We’ve collected the 15 best mods that can enrich your gameplay experience, whether you’re a roleplay purist, a graphics junkie, or just someone who wants to ride through Bohemia with a bit more style.
Unlimited Saving II

Let’s be honest — the original save system is immersive, but it doesn’t always respect your real-life schedule. Having to rely on Savior Schnapps or sleeping just to save your progress can get old fast.
This mod removes that restriction and allows you to save your game at any time, without using any items. It’s a small change that brings huge relief, especially when you’re sneaking through enemy camps or trying a risky dialogue path.
Totally unnecessary Reticle for Bows and Crossbows

Even back in the first game, the community was both impressed and slightly tormented by the developers’ obsession with realism. One of the most divisive choices? The complete lack of a reticle for bows. Many players saw it not as immersive, but as borderline punishment. In the sequel, with even more ranged weapons and still no aiming aid, it’s clear the devs are sticking to their vision — no matter how many arrows we lose in tall grass.
As the mod author explains: "In Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, bows and crossbows are now centered on the screen, making aiming more natural and easier compared to the first game. While this improved positioning somewhat eliminates the need for a reticle, some players may still find additional assistance useful — whether for accessibility reasons, preference, or simply to smooth out the gameplay." This mod adds a simple reticle via an in-engine command, offering just enough help to make archery feel like skill, not guesswork.
Road Encounters

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, road encounters can sometimes feel sparse, making journeys between towns relatively uneventful. The Road Encounters mod addresses this by increasing the number of NPCs that spawn during combat events and ambushes, making them more intense and challenging.
Additionally, the roads feel more alive with increased NPC activity, and caravans are now better protected with more soldiers accompanying them. It’s a small adjustment, but it makes a big difference. The world feels more natural, less like a stage, and more like a living land full of people on their own journeys.
1st Person Herb Picking II

In the base game, every time you pick herbs, the camera snaps to third person — breaking immersion and pulling you out of your carefully cultivated first-person experience. For players who prefer to stay fully in-character, it’s a small but annoying disruption.
1st Person Herb Picking II fixes that by keeping the camera in first-person view while gathering herbs. It’s a subtle change, but one that makes a huge difference if you value consistency and immersion. Now, harvesting nettles and marigolds feels as natural and grounded as everything else in Bohemia.
Instant Herb Picking II

Following up on the previous mod, Instant Herb Picking II takes things a step further by removing the gathering animation entirely. Instead of kneeling down every single time, your character now instantly picks herbs with a simple click.
It may sound like a minor time-saver, but over the course of the game — especially for alchemy-focused builds — it adds up fast.
More XP Or Less XP

This mod gives you full control over how quickly (or slowly) you gain experience in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. You can choose from presets like x1.5, x2, x5, or even x200 to level up faster — or slow things down with x0.75 or x0.5 if you prefer a more gradual, meaningful progression.
The author recommends x1.5 for a smoother, less grindy playthrough that still keeps the game balanced. Want to breeze through the story? Go with x200. Or, if you're a completionist who explores every corner, x0.25 can make your progress feel earned right up to the end. It's a simple tweak — but one that completely reshapes how you experience the game.
Remove Fog of war

By default, the world map is covered in fog, revealing only the areas you’ve explored. While immersive, this can be frustrating for players who want to plan ahead, find specific locations, or just prefer having a clear view of the world.
Remove Fog of War lifts the veil completely — the entire map is visible from the beginning, including towns, landmarks, and roads. It doesn’t unlock fast travel points or discovered locations — you'll still need to visit them — but it makes planning and exploration easier.
More Carry Weight — PTF

Inventory limits in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II are realistic — maybe a bit too realistic. Between armor, weapons, loot, and alchemy ingredients, you’ll often find yourself over-encumbered long before you’re ready to head back to town.
More Carry Weight mode adjusts this by increasing your maximum carry weight, with several options depending on how much extra space you want. It doesn’t break immersion entirely — it just reduces the need for constant inventory management and lets you focus on exploring, looting and surviving.
You’ll see a few more mods in this list with the "PTF" tag — that stands for Patched Table File. These mods tweak specific game values without overwriting entire files, making them more compatible with other mods. In short, they play nice — so you can stack your favorite tweaks without worrying about conflicts.
No Intro

We get it — the first time you boot up Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, the opening logos and intro cinematic set the mood. But after the tenth launch? You just want to get into the game already. No Intro mode does exactly what it says: it removes the startup videos, letting you skip straight to the main menu without delay.
No Helmet Vision

Wearing a helmet gives you much-needed protection — but at the cost of visibility. The immersive visor overlay might look cool at first, but during intense combat or exploration, it can quickly become distracting.
No Helmet Vision removes that first-person helmet obstruction, letting you see the world clearly while keeping your armor on. It doesn’t affect stats or gameplay balance — just your field of view. Perfect for players who prefer practicality to hardcore realism.
Increased Stamina Regeneration

Stamina is a key part of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II’s combat system — but the slow regeneration and built-in recovery delay can make fights feel sluggish, especially early in the game. If you’re tired of standing around waiting to catch your breath, this mod offers a smoother alternative.
Increased Stamina Regeneration mode offers several configuration options to boost stamina regeneration — both for Henry and his horse. You can also choose to reduce the delay before regeneration kicks in, making movement and combat feel more responsive.
Convenient Items (PTF)

Food spoilage can quickly become one of the more annoying aspects of survival in the game. You stock up for the road, only to find your provisions rotting in your inventory hours later. Convenient Items (PTF) fixes that by completely removing food and herb decay, so you can finally carry supplies without racing against the clock. The mod also includes versions that reduce the weight of items like potions, crafting ingredients, and books — making your inventory feel much less punishing.
Ultra Low Graphics Mode

Kingdom Come: Deliverance II is a demanding game, and not every system can handle its dense forests, dynamic lighting, and realistic textures. Even on the lowest in-game settings, some older PCs may struggle with frame drops, stuttering, or long load times.
Ultra Low Graphics Mode pushes optimization further by disabling or heavily reducing key graphical features — shadows, post-processing, texture quality, and draw distance — to boost performance as much as possible. It’s not pretty, but it works. If your hardware is barely holding on, this mod can make the difference between frustration and smooth gameplay.
The Master Lockpicker

Lockpicking in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II can be tense, immersive — and downright frustrating, especially for new players or those using a mouse and keyboard. The minigame demands precision and patience, and a single slip can cost you valuable lockpicks.
The Master Lockpicker offers several versions, from smoother and more forgiving lockpicking to total mastery with perks unlocked early. Whether you just want to reduce the struggle, remove the annoying hand tremble, or bypass the system entirely, this mod gives you full control over how challenging — or chill — you want your lockpicking experience to be.
Wolf Companion - PTF

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, you don’t have to travel alone. Early in the game, you can befriend Mutt, a loyal dog who fights by your side, helps in combat, and warns you about nearby threats. He’s more than just a companion — he’s part of the journey.
With this mode, you can give Mutt a new, more fearsome look by transforming him into a wolf. The mod offers two visual styles — a dark Alpha Wolf or a striking White Wolf — while keeping his behavior and abilities intact. It’s a cosmetic change, but one that adds personality and wild energy to your adventures in Bohemia.
This was our selection of the 15 best mods for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. Of course, there are many more out there — from small quality-of-life tweaks to full-on overhauls. Which mods have you tried? Got any hidden gems to recommend? Share your favorites in the comments!
