New players may wonder, does Ghostrunner 2 have difficulty options? Ghostrunner 2 follows quite directly in the footsteps of the previous games, expanding on it in almost every way.

Difficulty is certainly a major factor in the Ghostrunner games, so let's discuss how it works in the new game. Here is everything you need to know about difficulty in Ghostrunner 2.

Can you change the difficulty in Ghostrunner 2?

If you were hoping for some leniency, we have some bad news. Ghostrunner 2 does not have difficulty options. The difficulty of the game is intrinsic to the experience, similar to games like Dark Souls or Celeste.

The game is very challenging, you die in a single hit so you must learn to wipe out all enemies in an encounter without getting touched. When you die, you respawn almost instantly, and checkpoints are numerous. The game is an exercise in trial and error, which may not be for everyone.

If nothing else, you can maybe take solace in knowing that everyone who plays Ghostrunner 2 is in the same boat as you. As regards to difficulty accessibility, unfortunately, there is little on offer to make the game playable for more people.

That is it for our Ghostrunner 2 difficulty options guide. For more, head to our Ghostrunner 2 homepage for more guides like the Ghostrunner 2 download size for PC & Xbox.
