Death Stranding Director’s Cut is going to feature a new difficulty level, Hideo Kojima confirmed today.
On his Official Twitter profile, the legendary game designer confirmed that the upcoming PlayStation 5 version of his latest game will feature a Very Hard difficulty mode. It is not yet clear if it is the same Very Hard difficulty seen in the PC version or a brand new one balanced around the many combat updates featured in the Director’s Cut.
