Like its follow-up, Kingdom Come: Deliverance is set in the Kingdom of Bohemia at the dawn of the 1400s. This backdrop makes sense for a myriad of reasons, but developer Warhorse Studios humored other options, they just required a bit too much work.
Medieval Germany or the era of England that featured Robin Hood (also sometime during the 15th century) were the forerunners. Both are attractive propositions for a game, especially an involved action-RPG with a heavy emphasis on historic realism. But it was Warhorse's own standards that made a change of locale for Henry less worthwhile.
