How to Unlock New Game Plus
Beat the Game Once
After completing the final main quest, The Siege of Paradis, you can access New Game Plus after the ending slides.
Returning Players Must Complete the Final Quest Again
Returning players who have beaten the game before will not receive immediate access to NG+. Load a save from the final point of no return or later and reach the ending again to create a New Game Plus save file.

What to Do in New Game Plus
Maximize Your Build
Restarting at Level 1 but with all previous Abilities and Attributes still unlocked, another round of 36 Talent Points is available to distribute at max level in NG+. This allows builds to be further refined and fully realized, especially against the stronger enemies and bosses.
Make Different Choices
With multiple conflicting choices being a core element in each playthrough, players can explore different outcomes on their second run through the story. With the same powerful Envoy, make new decisions, witness their consequences, and experience a different ending!
