The adventure isn’t over! For those who’ve seen the credits roll, get ready for a tougher experience in New Game Plus, which will let you bring your weapons, levels, gear, and upgrades, but the enemies will be bringing some improvements of their own. This along with some balancing tweaks (and the removal of some cheese strategies), should alter the experience for all players.
Read on for some more information, or join us on September 29th when New Game Plus will come to Steelrising.
What is the New Game Plus (NG+)?
It is a feature that allows you to play the game again – as it resets the quests – on a higher difficulty level while keeping your character’s progress (level, weapons, upgrades).
When will it be released?
The patch will be deployed on September, 29th. You can follow @PlaySteelrising on Twitter to stay updated on when exactly.
How will I be able to access it?
You’ll need to download the new patch when the NG+ is available.
Please note that, in order to access the NG+, you need to have reached the end of the game. Should you meet this condition, then all you need to do is select “New Game Plus” in the main menu. Your endgame save will be able to be converted to a NG+ save.
What will the patch bring?
The New Game Plus patch will include:
- New NG+ exclusive weapons
- 1 new NG+ exclusive complete outfit
- Several NG+ exclusive enemy variations with new skins, new weapons, and as such, new movesets
- Ingame balancing for the main game with the ice musketeer, the grenades and ammo, and some bosses
- Some fixes for the main game.
