Morphology

mythic = myth (semi-transparent) = myth + ic

Formed from 'myth' + '-ic' but the gaming sense ('highest difficulty tier') is a domain-specific, conventionalized extension of 'legendary' and may not be obvious to learners unfamiliar with gaming jargon.

Etymology

Mythic comes from the old Greek word mythos, meaning 'story' or 'legend', and it shares the same root as the English word myth. In gaming, that idea is kept: a mythic mode is the most legendary and hardest level, like a challenge from a great tale.
