Melodies from the Past: Whistling While You Forge
While Indro works at the forge, keen players might notice him whistling familiar tunes. The melodies, subtly shifting based on your hammering rhythm, are actually two distinct songs from the first Kingdom Come game. This detail is a nostalgic treat for returning players and a pleasant surprise for newcomers.
The Cat in Boots: A Playful Nod to Folklore
Near Kutna Hora's northern wall, east of the Kolin Gates, a gray cat stands upright, wearing leather boots and clutching a tiny wooden sword. While reminiscent of the Czech fairy tale "Cat Mikes," Western players will likely recognize the playful reference to Puss in Boots.
A Tribute to Elden Ring's Legendary Player
Southwestern Trosky, near Semina Mill, features a touching tribute to Let Me Solo Her. A skeleton lies beneath a tree, a pot on its head, flanked by swords and a red poppy—a quiet homage to the Elden Ring legend.
Wizarding World Wonders: Harry Potter References
Several Easter eggs subtly reference the Harry Potter universe. These include a skeleton on a broomstick with a Golden Snitch, a crashed carriage reminiscent of the Weasley's flying car, and a collection of Quidditch equipment near Vlashsky Court (accessible via coordinates 3053 614 50).
Skyrim Shout-Outs: Arrows and Adventures
Kingdom Come 2 includes playful nods to Skyrim. A character with an arrow in his head and a shepherd's tale of a ram-related knee injury are both clear references to the famous "arrow in the knee" meme.
Aliens Among Us: UFO Crash Site
Southwest of Nebakov, a crashed UFO is visible, though inaccessible. This humorous addition breaks the game's historical setting and adds a touch of the unexpected.
Luffy's Hat: Become the Pirate King
One Piece fans will appreciate the inclusion of Luffy's straw hat, which boosts charisma when equipped.
Medieval Artistry: The Horse Conundrum
Zooming in on Semina's map reveals a comically inaccurate depiction of a horse, a humorous reference to the struggles of medieval artists to accurately portray horses.
Knightly Soap: Merchandise Meets Gameplay
Warhorse Studios' real-world merchandise, Knightly Soap, is available in-game at Adam's bathhouse in Kutna Hora, allowing players to clean their clothes.
Aviation Anomalies: Planes in the Sky
Modern airplanes can be seen in certain cutscenes, a deliberate Easter egg that adds a touch of anachronistic humor.
Mexican Mummies: Creepy Twins Make an Appearance
Referencing the viral elongated-skull mummies, two unsettling twin figures appear in the game, adding a surreal touch.
Prehistoric Surprises: Dinosaurs Roam Free
Small theropod dinosaurs can be spotted in certain cutscenes and in a cave southwest of Kutna Hora, adding a touch of absurdity to the medieval setting.
Why Explore Kingdom Come 2?
Kingdom Come 2 offers more than just survival in a harsh medieval world; it's about the joy of discovery. From whimsical references to heartfelt tributes, the game rewards exploration. So, grab your sword, mount your horse, and embark on an adventure—you never know what awaits!
