The following QoL changes include but are not limited to:
*The introduction of difficulty modes: Casual, Standard, Expert and Impossible. Impossible is only available on New Game Plus and cannot be changed to another difficulty once selected.
*A setting to speed up battle animations or skip them entirely. 
*Healing in the sickbay is free.
*The sub-app limit was removed. The player can equip as many non-conflicting sub-apps as they want.
*The Visualizer apps now automatically map Dark Zones. As a result, the Scanning Zero sub-app that enabled this function in the original was removed.
*The ability to sprint in dungeons by holding down the B button.
*Using a demon source in fusion allows for the selection of skills to be passed onto the child demon. 
*Field Save, a single-save file that allows the player to save anywhere in the dungeon without the use of a terminal, was added.
*Various new sub-apps related to combat and dungeon crawling were added, e.g. March to Death, a sub-app preventing a game over if the protagonist is petrified or killed as long as allied demons can fight. It becomes available as soon as the player gets access to sub-apps but is not available on Impossible.
*Commander Skills were added, which are player-exclusive abilities that are unlocked by equipping the proper sub-app. Some are used like regular skills that take up the protagonist's turn, while others activate automatically, the frequency of which is determined by the protagonist's Luck and other context-sensitive factors. Manual commander skills have a cooldown lasting between 5-8 turns depending on the skill.
