Version 1.5.6 adds a small quest lead in Kuttenberg

If you are looking for the new activity from the June 25 patch, check the space in front of Hangman's Halter Tavern. The official notes say a Jester may appear there and mention a strange game. Treat that wording literally: the publisher has not documented an exact trigger, chance or story-progress requirement, so this is a place to check rather than a guaranteed route.

The same patch fixes one narrow So It Begins… recruitment problem: it applies only when Mikesh or Kozliek is dead and you visited the Mysteria Ecclesiae monastery after killing them. It is not a general fix for every stalled main-quest objective.

Main quest line

Main quest order with risk notes

This main quest list is built as a routing checklist. Entries marked as guides have a full page; index entries are included so the KCD2 main quest line is still useful even before every mission has a standalone walkthrough.

Practical warning: finish the Trosky side content you care about before Necessary Evil, and finish Kuttenberg-region side content you care about before Oratores. Those are the two main-story commitment zones players most often regret crossing too quickly.

Plan side quests around the two commitment points

The published base-game sequence has 32 quests. Quests 1–12 cover the Trosky story; quests 13–32 continue in the Kuttenberg region. Main quests run in a fixed order, so planning is about optional content and saves rather than reordering the story.

Before starting Necessary Evil (8), finish the Trosky side quests you care about and keep a manual save. Do the same for Kuttenberg before Oratores (24). These thresholds can fail affected quests; they do not mean that all travel to the region disappears permanently.

Storm (12) leads to Kuttenberg. The regional carriage later allows return travel, but it does not restore a failed side quest. See the save and commitment checklist before advancing and check your journal after the transition.

How to use this quest compendium

If you are early in Trosky, clear companion, miller, blacksmith, feud and Vostatek content before completing Necessary Evil. If you are in Kuttenberg, treat Ransom, Thunderstone and Menhard as decision-heavy side routes that deserve a clean save before the final handoff.

Current support pages include 7 mechanics, FAQ and DLC pages. They exist to support quest completion: lockpicking for stealth routes, Belladonna for save control, alchemy for prank and survival quests, and the map for regional routing.

Source note: the main quest order and point-of-no-return warnings are cross-checked against public walkthrough indexing and then rewritten here as routing advice rather than copied walkthrough text.
