Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Best Ending Guide
The following are the critical choices that contribute to the best ending:
- Sided with Semine during Necessary Evil.
- Rejected the Dry Devil’s plan at Maleshov Fortress.
- Did not kill Markvart von Aulitz, or ensured a dignified death.
- Spared Vauquelin Brabant.
- Maintained a law-abiding stance and minimized criminal activities.
- Expressed remorse for mistakes.
Semine vs. Hashek
In the "Necessary Evil" quest, you must choose between Semine and Hashek. Opting to side with Semine and eliminating Hashek is crucial for the best ending. While Semine will lose his estate, this choice allows him to escape.
The Dry Devil’s Plan
During the "Dancing With the Devil" quest, Jan Zizka assigns you to attack Maleshov Fortress. To achieve the best ending, you must reject the Dry Devil's plan. This decision leads to a duel with the Dry Devil, making the quest more challenging, but it prevents the killing of innocents.
Markvart von Aulitz’s Fate
In the "Reckoning" quest, you encounter Markvart. To secure the best ending, allow him to die naturally or give him a dignified death by helping him stand before ending his life, thereby easing his suffering.
Spare Brabant
Within the same mission, you'll find Vauquelin Brabant torturing Samuel in the village. After defeating him, choose to spare him to contribute to the best ending. This decision will prompt him to summon the guards, increasing the mission's difficulty.
Show Remorse
If you've engaged in criminal behavior, you can still work towards the best ending by showing remorse. When conversing with Henry's parents, select the dialogue option "I’m sorry" to express your regret.
By following these steps, you'll be on the path to achieving the best ending in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. For more insights and tips, including how to obtain all six Saint Antiochus’ Dice and explore all romance options, be sure to visit The Escapist.
