Sloclap has released its first content update for Sifu today, adding the much-requested difficulty options. 

A more accessible difficulty called “Student” is now available in the game, which gives your character more health, makes you age more slowly, and makes enemies less aggressive and fight with more simplified combos. If you’re seeking a harder challenge, there’s also a “Master” difficulty that makes your character more vulnerable and enemies relentless in their fighting with more intricate patterns. 

Costumes are also now in the game, with more coming in future updates and a training mode where you can customize how many enemies you’re fighting at one time, plus there’ are some quality of life updates for the UI. 

Will the difficulty options have you trying Sifu for the first time or returning to the game for a more challenging playthrough? Let me know in the comment section below.
