Any currency, enhancements, drone upgrades, equipment, items and SP earned during a playthrough will carry into New Game Plus.
After game director Kim Hyung-tae announced New Game Plus would be coming “very soon” to Stellar Blade, various reviews have confirmed its availability from launch. YouTuber FightinCowboy revealed this on Twitter, and IGN also updated their review to confirm the arrival of New Game Plus in a new patch.
New Game Plus allows players to carry all their equipment, items, enhancements, unlocked skills, SP, currency, drone upgrades and records into a new playthrough. Of course, the game’s progress will reset, which likely means that certain story-related items won’t be available immediately for players. Other New Game Plus changes, such as more challenging enemies or exclusive content, have yet to be outlined.
Stellar Blade launches on April 26th for PS5.
