Mechanics / GAME GUIDE
Difficulty choices
Compare the focus of Wayfarer and Hellwalker.
Story or a tougher challenge
Wayfarer focuses on the story; Hellwalker features more adaptive enemy AI.
Do PS5 trophies require the highest difficulty?
Trophies can be earned on any difficulty, including the easiest setting.
How can I keep a fallback before chapter progress?
Keep manual saves at the start and end of each region. Some tales fail after story progress, and post-story free roam does not restore missed tales.
Combat overview
Manage Sha-Chi
Sha-Chi sits below the health bar. Depleting it causes a guard break; switching equipped primary weapons helps replenish your own resource.
Turn defense into pressure
Reduce the enemy’s Sha-Chi through defensive exchanges and attacks, then use its guard-break window for sustained damage. Keep enough of your own bar to continue defending.
