To romance Katherine in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, you'll need to follow a series of steps throughout the game, involving both main quests and side quests. Here's a detailed guide on how to win her heart.
The King’s Gambit
You'll first encounter Katherine early in the game, but romancing her requires significant progression through the main storyline. A crucial point comes during the main quest "The King’s Gambit." Here, you'll spend a night in Suchdol and have the opportunity to interact with Katherine while at Sigismund’s camp. During her bath scene, choose these dialogue options to start flirting:
- "It’s different with you."
- "What about a kiss for luck?"
Complete Side Quests for Katherine
After "The King’s Gambit," head to the Kuttenberg region to complete two side quests related to Katherine: "The Fifth Commandment" and "The Stalker."
The Fifth Commandment
Start this quest by talking to Katherine at the Kuttenberg tavern. She'll ask for your help in tracking down a serial killer. The quest is straightforward, but the key decision at the end is crucial. Allow Katherine to kill the serial killer instead of turning him in to gain significant favor with her.
The Stalker
Initiate this quest by speaking with Katherine again. Your task is to deal with a stalker harassing her. You have several options to resolve this: pass a Speech check to persuade him to leave, bribe him with 200 groschen, or simply beat him up.
The Italian Job
Once these side quests are complete, continue with the main storyline until you reach "The Italian Job." Your mission here involves rescuing hostages before speaking with Jan Zizka. Before meeting Zizka, go to the courtyard and climb the stairs in the minting room to find Katherine. Compliment her during your conversation, then proceed with the quest.
Hunger and Despair
The final step in romancing Katherine occurs during the main quest "Hunger and Despair." After fending off soldiers and talking to Zizka, find Katherine in the infirmary. Choose this dialogue option:
- "I’ll bring help, and everything will be alright again."
Afterward, meet her at the ramparts to successfully complete the romance storyline with Katherine.
By following these steps, you'll successfully romance Katherine in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. For more tips and information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist, where you can find guides on whether to kill Jakesh and how to locate the Cumans’ Camp.
