Unlock the Secret Ending Before Starting NG+

Before starting New Game Plus, it's recommended to head to Chapter 3's Secret Area and defeat the bosses there to unlock the Secret Ending. Once you've beaten the Final Boss a second time, you can go ahead and start New Game Plus!

What's New in New Game Plus?

The 6th Relic: Freed Mind

Freed Mind is the sixth and final relic in the game. It's only available in New Game Plus, and it has some very powerful effects that make replaying the game much easier.

A New Spell: Life-Saving Strand

In New Game Plus, you get a new spell called Life-Saving Strand. This is a passive that you can't cast, but it will revive you whenever you drop to 0 HP.

This shares the same slot as A Pluck of Many, so you'll have to decide between one of the best spells in the game and the ability to resurrect after dying.

Upgrade Armour in Shrines

Normally, you'd need to go to the Zodiac Village and talk to Yin Tiger to upgrade your armour. In New Game Plus, however, you can now upgrade your armour at any Shrine that you visit!

2 New Character Journal Entries

You get two new Journal Entries, The Great Sage's Broken Shell and Yuan Shoucheng, when you start New Game Plus for the first time. If you want to unlock all achievements and get every journal entry, then you will need to play New Game Plus first.

Increased Difficulty and Rewards

Enemies and Bosses are slightly harder in New Game Plus, and they give more EXP and Will. However, because of all your upgrades and the new relic that you get, fights will still be a lot easier this time around.
