There's a new patch out for Slay the Spire 2's beta branch, and the overall difficulty is getting adjusted by developer Mega Crit Games. While the objective remains providing a deep challenge for dedicated players on the highest modes, the barrier for entry was proving tricky for those who just want some fun deckbuilding.
"When it comes to general balance, the base difficulty is quite hard right now," the patch notes state in regard to the alterations made to the Ascensions. "We're continuously adjusting this baseline difficulty to make it more accessible for a wide range of players, while also continuing to deliver a challenging game at the highest Ascensions."
