Getting Your Horse Back in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2

Right from the start, it’s important to know that you can reclaim your original horse, Pebbles, in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. Your first stop should be Semine, located in the southern part of the map. Here, you’ll need to negotiate with the horse trader NPC to get Pebbles back.

The horse trader won’t just hand over Pebbles without some form of persuasion. You have three main options: pay with Groschen, use persuasion, or resort to intimidation. In my experience, following the main questline led me to work with Radovan the blacksmith, which provided an opportunity to acquire new clothes for Henry. Dressed as nobility, I managed to convince the horse trader to release Pebbles without any payment, though this did slightly tarnish my reputation in Semine.

If your attempts at persuasion fall short, you’ll need to cough up the Groschen to secure Pebbles' return.

How to Steal a Horse

If reclaiming your horse seems too challenging or costly, stealing one might be your next best option. In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, wild horses are rare, so you’ll need to target farms or stables.

A recommended spot is Vidlak Pond in the west, where you’ll find a farmhouse owned by fishermen. They have two horses that you can mount and ride off with. After securing your stolen horse, make your way to the Nomads’ Camp just east of Vidlak Pond. Here, you can speak with the horse trainer NPC to learn how to saddle and tame your new companion. Be prepared to pay the trainer for his services.

Alternatively, you can choose to bypass the trainer and ride your horse freely, though this may limit your ability to fully bond with and control your horse.

And there you have it—a comprehensive guide on how to get a horse in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*. For more tips and detailed information on the game, be sure to check out The Escapist.
