How to get a Horse in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

There are two massive regions to explore in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, and running around on foot can be a bit slow. You’ll want to know how to get a horse in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 𝓰that way you can quickly traverse the world as needeಞd.

Get Pebbles Back

Your first option for getting a horse is to find and get Henry’s faithful steed Pebbles back. Yep, Pebbles returns from Kingdom Come: Deliverance and is a h𝓀orse you can get in the sequel as well.

Early on you’ll get a side quest called The Jaunt in the village of Semine. Before you can actually delve into the side quest, you’ll need to acquire a horse. On the eastern side of Semine is a massive horse stable. Visit the Horse Trader there and you will see none other than Pebbles!

However, Pebbles wasn’t branded, meaning the Horse Trader can’t verify he’s yours, and therefore is his property. He is willing to let you buy Pebbles back, though. You can either fork over the 150 Groschen (you can probably haggle him down to about 140 Groschen), or you can wait until nighttime and attempt to steal Pebbles!

Buy a Horse

The Horse Trader in Semine sells other horses as well, not just your precious Pebbles. There are vario💟us horses available that offer various speeds. These horses range anywhere from 100 to as much as 800 Groschen.

Purchasing a Horse will make that horse yours forever. You’ll no longer have to worry about trying to acquire one, as you will have access to the purchase Horse as long as you don’t let anything happen to it.

How to Tame a Horse

You also have the option of acquiring your own horse and taming it, which doesn’t require you to purchase one. In the Nomad’s Camp in the center of the Trotsky region is the Horse Handler Mikolai. Mikolai has his own selection of horses, but he can also assist you with taming a Horse to become yours.

Bring any Horse to Mikolai and he will break it to listen to you for a much smaller fee than the price of actually purchasing one. First, however, you’ll need a Horse, and you have two options: steal one, or find one in the wild.

Steal a Horse

If you’re the more nefarious type, you also have the option of stealing a Horse. In fact, as long as a Horse isn’t saddled and armored, you are capable of stealing it. You’ll find Horses in all the villages across both Trotsky and Kuttenberg.

To steal a horse, simply approach it and hold the ‘E’ key by default to jump on. You’ll want to quickly get out of the area before anyone spots you, as it’s illegal to steal a horse, of course.

The best strategy is to do this at night when everyone’s visibility is limited anyway, which should give you a much higher chance to successfully escape. Afterwards, visit Mikolai at the Nomad’s Camp and he will tame the horse to answer to you.

Find a Horse in the Wild

You can also find horses throughout the wild that you can also hop on and take to Mikolai. It’s important to note, however, that both wild horses and those that are stolen will not stick around if you have not tamed them at Mikolai.

If you dismount a horse that’s not technically yours, it will start to wander away. In fact, doing a quest or even interacting with someone or conversing will be enough time for the horse to completely wander off, leaving you mountless.
