If you’ve been digging through the latest patch notes for Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, you might have seen a mention of an achievement called “Close One”—which would be great, except for one small issue: no one seems to know what it is.

What is the “Close One” Achievement?

Right now, nobody has unlocked it, nobody knows how to get it, and some players think it might not even exist. It’s like Schrödinger’s achievement—both real and not real at the same time.

Possible Theories

Some players on the forums have speculated that it might actually be a renamed or reworked version of an existing achievement. The most popular guess so far?

  • "Escaping the Noose" – This achievement requires you to talk your way out of execution, which is a pretty “close one” if you think about it.

  • The achievement was bugged, and now it’s fixed – But fixed how, exactly? No one is sure.

Is It Actually Unlockable?

  • There are verified reports of players with 100% completion say they’ve never seen it, so it is very possible this achievement does not exist.

  • It wasn’t in the game before this patch, and it might still be missing.

  • It could be a stealth addition that no one has figured out yet.

Final Blurb

Right now, the “Close One” achievement remains a mystery—a ghost in the patch notes, a riddle without an answer. Maybe someone will stumble upon it, or maybe it’s destined to be one of those legendary achievements no one ever gets. Either way, if you happen to unlock it, congratulations—you’ve solved a mystery that even the most dedicated players couldn’t crack.
