by Fernando Diaz / Articles, Game Controls & Hotkeys, Misc. Guides / 11 Jan 2025

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 drops you into a medieval world that is both brutal and beautiful. The last thing you want to do is get owned by some bandits because you couldn’t quite figure out how to swing your sword without stabbing the ground-or your horse. This guide breaks down the PC keyboard controls so you can actually fight the bad guys, not accidentally become the one they’re laughing at in medieval meme compilations. Let’s get you sorted before you end up with more arrows in your back than you might like.
