The easiest mode has on-site revivals
Coincides with a gameplay overview trailer Ghosts’ n Goblins ResurrectionCapcom shared a brief overview of how the difficulty levels differ. Knowledge is power (but I’m still going to die a ton). There are four choices – Legend, Knight, Squire, and Page – and none of them look particularly friendly.
Here’s what to expect, from the highest difficulty to the most forgiving:
- Legend mode: your armor can only hit once and there are more enemies on the screen.
- Knight mode: you can take an extra hit.
- Squire mode: you can make an extra hit and there are fewer enemies.
- Page mode: you can revive yourself “on the spot”.
Capcom also confirmed that if you knew Ghosts’ n Goblins Resurrection on Legend, Knight or Squire you can roll it back and face the harder Shadow versions of each level – the classic “second loop”. That seems like a fair trade-off for people who want to do everything they can and feel sufficiently rewarded.
At the very end of the trailer, noticeably faster footage can be seen of Arthur outwitting a jumping boss. There are apparently “more surprises” in store for this game, and that clip is one of them.
I’m curious about the How Long to Beat list for that Resurrection.
