Is it Possible to Change Difficulty in Remnant 2?
I have some good news and some bad news for you. The good news is thatyes, you’re able to change your difficulty in Remnant 2. The bad news is that this comes with amassive caveat. When changing the difficulty, you have toreroll the campaign, meaning you’ll be restarting from when you first get sucked into the Worldstone near the start of the game. This means that if you’re already a dozen hours in, youmay have to restart a lot of that contentif you want things to be more or less challenging.

While most of you likely clicked off at this point, some of you might still want to go through with it. For that, I applaud you, as it certainly wasn’t something I was into doing in my first playthrough. As for how you can do it though, you’ll want tohead to the Worldstoneand select the bottom option, which displays your difficulty and whether you’re playing on Hardcore or not. From there, select theReroll Campaignbutton and choose your difficulty. Once done, you’ll be in a new zone and starting from the first of the handful of worlds.
