Boss rematches and difficulty levels

Since the Overture launch, a permanent boss rematch system has been part of the main game. In Battle Memories, already defeated bosses can be fought again; Death March strings several boss fights together with limited resources. In addition, three selectable difficulty levels are available, which can also be changed during an ongoing game.
