It is unlocked after completing each respective game once and it doesn’t actually make the game harder, it just restores the original game’s difficulty. While on the topic of difficulty, alongside the easy mode option is the introduction of a hard mode, but it’s pretty underwhelming.

Keeps the original audio for that nostalgic feel.

Updated graphics without muddying up the original art style.

This mode increases your health from three to five, reduces all damage to a third of its original value, increases your attack range and grants you infinite lives. These remakes get around that by using the original audio and even compressing them in the same way the original games did to retain the feeling of playing a classic platformer from the 90s and these additions carry over to Klonoa 2: Lunatea’s Veil by using the original PlayStation 2 audio.įor you 90s to early 2000s kids that now have children of your own and want to share a nostalgic game from your childhood with them, you can rejoice because there is an easy mode specifically for them (or anyone who just wants to breeze through the game).
