Warhorse Studios has released a new update for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, and if you've been waiting for the immersive medieval RPG to up its difficulty a few (hundred) notches, this one's for you. Patch 1.2.4's biggest addition is Hardcore Mode, which was promised as part of the game's post-launch roadmap back in January.
