SinceMarvel’s Midnight Sunshas somechallenging turn-based card combatthat requires players to carefully consider their moves and plan out their actions accordingly, players will need to gauge their own capabilities and weigh the enhanced rewards with the additional challenge offered by each difficulty setting. To encourage this, the game gradually unlocks new difficulty settings as players continue through the game, allowing players to change difficulty between missions whenever they choose to.
How Difficulty Works
The Difficulty Settingsin this game increaseand decrease enemy health and offensive power, whilst reducing the number of revives players have access to. Additionally, players will have to contend with the injury system,weakening heroes who took a lot of damagein a previous mission if they didn’t have time to rest before the next mission if they play on any difficulty above “Story” difficulty.
With Normal Difficulty acting as a baseline, offering two revives per mission as a safety net and a 25% bonus to gloss obtained from missions, whileleaving enemy healthand offensive power unchanged, each difficulty alters enemy power and offense. Each difficulty also grants a bonus to hero XP gain and gloss rewarded from missions, and difficulties above normal limit the player to one revive per mission.
Here’s the breakdown of each difficulty and its changes to the gameplay:

Extra Enemy Reinforcements
As this chart shows, it can be very profitable to clear a mission on a higher difficulty, but the enemies will get considerably more dangerous as the difficulty is turned up higher. Additionally, players will have todeal with a greater quantity of enemiesonce they get into the Ultimate Difficulties since enemy reinforcements will be increased to make missions even more challenging.
