No EXP Difference Across Difficulties

Raidou Remastered - No EXP Difference Across Difficulties

Experience (EXP) and Loyalty Points earned from story battles remain the same across all difficulty levels. Increasing the difficulty will not affect the amount of EXP or Loyalty Points gained, so there's no need to play on a higher difficulty just to level up faster.

Difficulty Level Doesn't Change Content

Raidou Remastered - Difficulty Level Does Not Affect Game Content

The difficulty level doesn't change any game content, so you can choose whichever setting you prefer without losing access to anything. Whether you're playing on Sleuth or Detective Legend, all story events, battles, and rewards remain the same.

Stronger Enemies at Higher Difficulties

Raidou Remastered - The Higher the Difficulty, the More Damage You Take

Enemy damage scales with difficulty. Sleuth is the only mode where player deaths are disabled, offering a safer and more forgiving experience. All other difficulties allow player deaths and increase the power of enemy attacks.

For example, based on some tests from an early-game battle, enemies deal 2 damage with normal attacks and 9 with strong ones on Sleuth. On Gumshoe, this rises to 5 and 18, then to 10 and 36 on Private Eye, and finally 15 and 54 on Truth Seeker.

How to Unlock the Hardest Difficulty

Complete the Game Once

Raidou Remastered - How to Unlock the Hardest Difficulty

To unlock Detective Legend, clear the game once on any difficulty. This mode is the ultimate challenge, designed for players who want to push their limits with tougher enemies and extreme resource costs.
