How To Fix Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Stuttering on PC

Despite launching a couple of weeks ago, some Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 players are still experiencing frustrating performance issues, particularly stuttering on PC. This guide outlines solutions to resolve this common problem.

Addressing Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Stuttering on PC

Many players have reported stuttering issues on Reddit and other gaming forums. The PC version, for some, is far from smooth, causing significant gameplay disruption even for those meeting the game's minimum requirements. Fortunately, the community has identified several fixes.

Solution 1: Update Your Graphics Drivers

The first step is to update your graphics drivers. Installing the NVIDIA GeForce Hotfix Driver Version 572.24 for Windows 10 and 11 (released a week post-launch) has reportedly resolved stuttering and crashing issues for many players.

Solution 2: Check Your Controller Connection

Surprisingly, some players using Bluetooth controllers experienced stuttering. Switching to a wired USB connection resolved the problem for them.

Solution 3: Adjust In-Game Graphics Settings

If the above solutions don't work, tweaking the in-game graphics settings may be necessary. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 provides extensive advanced graphics options, allowing for granular control over lighting, shader quality, textures, and more. While reducing settings might compromise visual fidelity, it can significantly improve performance. Experiment with lowering settings from High to Medium, and Medium to Low, until you find a balance between visuals and smooth gameplay.

Optimizing Settings for High FPS

Once stuttering is resolved, optimize your settings to achieve the best possible visual quality without sacrificing performance. Consult resources like The Escapist's guide to the best PC settings for high FPS in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 for further assistance.
