Difference Between Difficulty Levels
Difficulty Levels
| Easy | For players who want to focus on enjoying the story. You won't have any trouble with combat on this mode. |
|---|---|
| Normal | Enemies will be coming at you full force, but you should be able to handle what they throw at you, provided you're not too underleveled. |
| Hard | A mode for those who like responsive and challenging combat. You'll have to strategically pick your perks, Cyberware, and other items in order to survive this mode. |
| Very Hard | Only for the most dedicated players. You'll need to maximize your player power whenever possible, paying attention to every small detail. Not for the faint of heart. |
Difficulty Can Be Changed Anytime
You will be asked to choose a difficulty level at the start of the game, but don't fret - you will be able to change the difficulty at any point during the game! You can feel free to choose any mode you want and adjust it later if you find it's too hard / too easy.
