    150 hours clocked in and just 100% all characters and still enjoying the game. Endless replay ability and super fun. Love it

    There are hidden areas throughout the game which can spawn better items, more bosses to fight, health, and more.
    There are plenty of reasons to play this game again after you beat it.
    Challenges are fun, and unlock even more items to use in the regular game.
