Quick answer
Story is the easier option.
Change difficulty from your current save
1. Continue your save and interact with an accessible Spirit Mirror.
2. Open Change Difficulty Level in the mirror menu.
3. Select Story or Action. Choose Story to lower the difficulty.
4. Use the Confirm action shown on your screen.
Swipe horizontally to view all columns.
| Mode | On-screen focus | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
Story | Storyline Focus | Lower |
Action | Combat Focus | More demanding |
To change back, return to an accessible Spirit Mirror and repeat these steps. You can do this again whenever you want to switch between Story and Action.
Carnage runs cannot be lowered to Story or Action. Carnage unlocks after completing the game; the switching instructions above apply only to Story and Action runs.
