Brushes with Death is one of the DLCs in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, offering a side adventure. In this quest, you’ll meet a mysterious painter and see his bizarre world filled with secrets, danger, and unexpected twists. Whether you’re starting or returning after finishing the main story, this guide will help you find and begin the DLC so you don’t miss out on one of the game’s side stories.
How To Start Brushes With Death DLC
The Brushes with Death DLC is a mysterious quest where you team up with a painter. Your friendship begins when you find him tied to a tree talking to a skull. To start the Brushes with Death DLC in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, you will first need to complete Main Quest 6: For Whom the Bell Tolls. This unlocks access to Trosky Castle.
Once the Trosky Castle is unlocked, look for a purple quest icon (for the DLC only) in the Trosky region, just southeast of the castle. Head over there and you will find a mysterious painter, Master Voyta, tied to a tree at the edge of the forest. Go near him to start a cutscene. After that, you will start helping him, which starts the Brushes with Death questline.
If you’ve already finished the main story or you’re currently in the Kuttenberg region (the second half of the game), you’ll need to travel back to the first region to start the Brushes with Death DLC. All the DLC missions will appear as Side Quests in your quest log.
