** The Tokyo Metropolitan Office (the final dungeon from the previous game) can also be partially explored, albeit with the enemies slightly downgraded.

* StarterVillain: Youji Shiga, who is built up as an account raider with a high threat level… but it turns out his team is actually ''weaker'' than the tutorial fight, and after being [[CurbStompBattle completely thrashed]] by Ryuji and Kensuke, is promptly devoured by an Eater. And it turns out [[RedHerring he didn’t even have Kensuke’s account to begin with.]]

* TheComputerIsaCheatingBastard: The opponents in the Master Cup can use items without taking their turn, and can use them whenever they want, even back to back. They can even use this to increase their Digimon's stats and give them Acceleration Boosts.

''Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth - Hacker's Memory'' is a ''Franchise/{{Digimon}}'' game for the UsefulNotes/Playstation4 and UsefulNotes/PlaystationVita and follow-up to ''VideoGame/DigimonStoryCyberSleuth'', with a new story unfolding within the events of ''Cyber Sleuth''.

Like its predecessor, it is available physically and digitally for the [=PS4=] and digital only for Vita. The game was [[CompilationRerelease bundled with its prequel]] in ''Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth Complete Edition'' for the UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch and PC via UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} and released on October 18, 2019.

* {{Feelies}}: The ''Franchise/{{Digimon}}'' 20th Anniversary Collector's edition comes with a ''Digimon Story'' art book, a soundtrack cd, and a Kuremi Detective Agency business card.

** Examon is less of a powerhouse here than it was in the original game, now requiring more memory to have on the team due to now being Ultra Level as a result of requiring Breakdramon and Slayerdramon to DNA Digivolve in order to attain. Unfortunately doubles as a PowerupLetdown since Slayerdramon, one of the components needed to DNA Digivolve into Examon in the first place, proves to be more useful in the long run thanks to its more useful Special Move and support skill, all the while Examon itself saw no other changes to compensate for its status as an Ultra Level Digimon.

* {{Nerf}}: Certain Digimon, moves, and Support Skills that were particularly rampant in online battles were nerfed to be less game-breaking. These were carried over to the ''Complete Edition'' version of the original ''Cyber Sleuth''.

** [=UlforceVeedramon=]'s Support Skill was changed to only affect itself instead of the whole party. The original incarnation of the ability allowed the entire party to [[ActionInitiative move first, regardless of speed]] if it had an [=UlforceVeedramon=] in it, and the ability stacked, meaning that if a player had three [=UlforceVeedramon=] in the field, the ability would affect the whole party three times, allowing the player to move ''nine times'' before their opponent could move once.

* AttackFailureChance: Knightmon's Berserk sword, a 30% accuracy NonDamagingStatusInflictionAttack, whose status is [[OneHitKill Instant Death]].

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:Even moreso than the first game. Hudie succeeds in destroying Arcadiamon, rescuing Ryuji, rescuing Erika (somewhat), and saving EDEN from the Eaters. However due to the CosmicRetcon, Erika, now Hudiemon, is forced to make a decision about returning to an EDEN-less world where she will still suffer the car accident and its consequences (i.e. death) or venture to the Digital World and live there for the rest of her life without her family or friends. Before she can choose and say a proper goodbye to her loved ones, and before Ryuji can properly apologize for everything he put her through, both Chitose and Ryuji are forcibly ripped away from her due to the world resetting (mid-sentence in Ryuji's case). She chooses the latter, erasing herself from human history permanently; Ryuji is now an only child and neither Ryuji, his parents, Chitose or anyone else (aside from Keisuke) remember Erika at all. Additionally, the Digimon were reset to no longer having interacted with humans and EDEN was never created. And the worst part is that Keisuke ''still remembers'' all of this and is forced to live with it in solitude. His ManlyTears in the game's epilogue put him squarely into HurtingHero territory. ]]

* SoBeautifulItsACurse: The Sistermon sisters know how cute they appear and see it as a roadblock. They're disciples of [[RatedMForManly Gankoomon]], powerful in their own right, and want to start a digimon training gym. They fear that their cute appearances would make people question how strong they can become at the gym.

* LighterAndSofter: Just like the previous ''Cyber Sleuth'' game, it's still nowhere near as dark as most other media in the ''Digimon'' series despite being targeted for an older audience.

* LostForever: Certain hacker files can be lost if not picked up quickly. The ones at Hudie's cafe can be lost after [[spoiler:Arcadiamon levels the place]]. However, this is remedied by NewGamePlus.

** An easily-missed one is the inclusion of [[spoiler:Yu]] as a choice in the earliest domination battles. There is no reason for the person to be selectable at that point due to being [[spoiler:supposedly anti-hacker]](and, from a story perspective, is FridgeLogic), but it hints [[spoiler:that he is actually a hacker himself and knows more than he lets on]].

** At one point, a Lopmon warp digivolves to Antaylamon in a special animated sequence. The sequence in question is very similar to how Agumon and Gabumon are depticed to warp Digivolve in Digimon Adventure.

** [[spoiler:The ending of the game contains one. More specifically, in the original game's ending EDEN explicitly still exists in the new timeline; the ending of Hacker's Memory states it to have never been created.]]
