Players diving into Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 are in for an immersive medieval experience, and now, customization options are letting them add a touch of humor. In a hilarious turn of events, one player gave the protagonist, Henry, a makeover, transforming him into a medieval Hulk Hogan, sparking what’s been dubbed “Henrymania” across the gaming community.
In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s narrative approach, the game aligns more closely with The Witcher 3 than with Baldur’s Gate 3. Here, players step into the shoes of a fixed protagonist, Henry, who can be tailored much like Geralt from The Witcher series. Despite the limited customization, players have access to various clothing options to make their Henry stand out, opening the door to a plethora of unique playthroughs.
Interestingly, a creative Redditor by the name of theone_thor took this customization option to the next level. By cleverly mixing and matching red and yellow garments, they managed to outfit Henry to resemble the legendary wrestler Hulk Hogan. This quirky transformation, affectionately called “Henrymania,” showcased Henry engaging in brawls with different civilians, humorously instructing them to “Eat your cabbage and say your prayers.”
One key feature missing from this transformation was the wrestler’s iconic mullet and mustache—at least initially. Fortunately, with the release of the Barber update, there’s now an opportunity for players to revisit and complete this look for Henry. It’s an exciting prospect, as fans have suggested in the forums, imagining an unarmed Henry embarrassing fully armored knights in this quirky guise. Whether “Henrymania” manifests as a complete playthrough or remains a one-time showcase is still up for debate.
For those eager to push the boundaries of “Henrymania,” the game’s upcoming Hardcore mode promises an even tougher challenge. This mode is set to release soon, adding a fresh layer of difficulty for players seeking an extra test of their skills. Additionally, Warhorse Studios has announced plans for three new DLC expansions in 2025, ensuring a steady stream of content and keeping the adventure alive for months to come.
Whether you’re a devoted fan or a curious newcomer to the Kingdom Come series, these developments promise to keep the game exciting and dynamic, offering both serious and lighthearted ways to explore its medieval world.
