New Soulslike Game Has Hilarious Easy Mode

Upcoming Soulslike game Another Crab’s Treasure features an easy mode where the players are equipped with a large handgun that they can use to one-shot bosses that get on their nerves. While Soulslike games have dabbled with difficulty options in the past, most of them tend to avoid having any kind of easy mode. A defining characteristic of the genre is the need for players to improve their skills and overcome seemingly insurmountable odds, so some have argued that an easy mode is counter to the philosophy of Soulslike games.
