In the sequel to Kingdom Come: Deliverance, players now have the delightful option of customizing their character, Henry. And in a humorous turn of events, one imaginative player decided to transform Henry into a medieval iteration of the wrestling icon, Hulk Hogan. This clever portrayal is affectionately dubbed “Henrymania” and has taken the virtual Bohemia by storm.
In terms of character customization, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 resembles The Witcher 3 more than it does games like Baldur’s Gate 3. Players step into the shoes of Henry, a character with a predetermined identity, similar to how players embody Geralt. While Henry’s core characteristics are fixed, there’s plenty of room to tweak his wardrobe with a myriad of available costumes. This personalization invites creativity, leading to unique and entertaining gameplay experiences.
The Reddit user, theone_thor, decided to have some fun by dressing Henry in red and yellow gear, perfectly mimicking the vibrant persona of Hulk Hogan. This witty nod to pop culture brought about “Henrymania,” with amusing in-game screenshots showing Henry wrestling with the locals, all while spouting lines like “Eat your cabbage and say your prayers.”
Titled “Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Player Starts ‘Henrymania’ With Hulk Hogan Costume,” the antics caught gamers’ attention. However, there’s one element that was lacking at the time. Prior to the game’s Barber update, Henry missed out on Hogan’s iconic mullet and mustache. Now, with the update live, players can revisit and complete the authentic transformation. A community member even chimed in, suggesting that playing through as an unarmed Henry brawling with armed knights would be a hilarious challenge. It remains a mystery whether this is a one-off joke or something that will become part of ongoing gameplay.
For those eager to push “Henrymania” further, the arrival of the Hardcore mode in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 promises an amplified level of difficulty. Set to release later this year, this feature is just one of several updates fans can look forward to. Warhorse Studios has already announced three new DLCs planned for release in 2025, ensuring fresh content continues to enhance the gaming experience.
