Announced difficulty choices

Official statement

S-GAME describes Wayfarer as a story-focused option and Hellwalker as a harder mode with more adaptive enemies. Sixty-Six Days is another named challenge. This review does not establish the complete mode list, unlock conditions or exact mechanical differences.

PS5 accessibility declarations

Official statement

The US PlayStation listing declares separate volume controls, spatial audio, subtitles, adjustable difficulty, control and tutorial reminders, pausing and manual saves. These are publisher-supplied listings, not a Kingy accessibility test.

Launch control, audio and display options

Official statement

S-GAME’s October 28 letter describes three PS5 button layouts, more flexible remapping on PC, an adjustment for blade-clash audio and support for 16:9, 16:10 and ultrawide aspect ratios beyond 3:1. These are developer declarations; they do not establish full PS5 remapping, readable text at every aspect ratio or an independently tested accessibility result.

Details still needing a menu check

Unknown

The exact remappable actions, text-size controls, colour settings, hold/toggle choices and feature parity still need a menu check. If one is essential to your play, seek a demonstration of that specific setting before relying on the broad feature labels.
