It’s taken a little longer than expected but the Kingdom Come: Deliverance patch v1.3 is finally here.
The update brings some expected changes such as a new save and exit feature. Performance has also been improved with a reduction in stuttering and a smoother framerate. For sneaky players there’s a new lockpicking interface now in play, pickpocketing has been improved, and it should be easier to sneak past sleeping NPCs. There are also over 300 quest fixes in this update.
There are PC specific changes too including different types of anti-aliasing, Vsync options, and Steam Cloud saves are also available. Here is the full Kingdom Come: Deliverance v1.3 notes…
