Capture the Beauty of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 with Photo Mode

Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 boasts stunning visuals, especially in fidelity mode. Want to preserve that beauty beyond gameplay? The game includes a photo mode at launch. Here's how to access and utilize it:

Activating Photo Mode:

  • PC: Press F1 (keyboard) or simultaneously press L3 and R3 (joypad).
  • Xbox Series X|S / PlayStation 5: Simultaneously press L3 and R3 (joypad). (L3 and R3 refer to pressing both joystick sticks inward.)

This will pause the game and initiate photo mode.

Photo Mode Limitations:

Currently, Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's photo mode is relatively basic. While offering camera control and positioning, it lacks advanced features found in other games, such as character posing, color grading, time of day adjustments, or the ability to incorporate other game characters into the scene. Hopefully, future updates will expand these options.

Despite its current limitations, the inclusion of photo mode is a welcome addition, allowing players to capture the game's breathtaking visuals.
