Getting the difficulty settings just right can be the entire difference between lovingRedfalland hating it. If the challenge is too low, gamers will find themselves bored. Certain enemies have attacks that are only terrifying if they pose a legitimate threat and can survive long enough to execute their plans.

Conversely, makingRedfalltoo difficult will also make the game unbearable. Starting a mission over and over again due to a wipeout on the same parts is not fun. Some completionists will fight through these moments but most gamers will struggle on the hardest settings. The names of the difficulty settings aren’t the usual “easy, medium, or hard” labels that gamers are used to, so take a peek at what each setting means.

If playersuse the right character, missions that are tough on Midnight can be doable even on the Eclipse setting. The game will always be somewhat challenging on this mode but it’s doable when players have practiced and made an attack plan.

When looking atthe time it takes to beat the game, prepare to add or deduct a few hours based on the difficulty used. The Daylight setting, when rushed, can likely be done in under ten hours while the Midnight setting will take a few extra hours to chew through enemy health bars.

Side missions are entertaining and recommended, but keep track ofthe main mission chapters to complete the story. Perhaps gamers will want to hold off on cranking the difficulty up to the max until they’ve seen the plot unfold once.

Redfallis available now for PC and Xbox Series X/S.
