Carries over
New Game Plus carries over Aberrant upgrades, health and combat ability resource improvements, unlocked supernatural combat abilities, talents, and artifacts.
In New Game Plus you can equip multiple different combat abilities from the same boss.
Does not carry over
Traversal abilities do not carry over in New Game Plus because they remain tied to story progression.
How It Works
Treat NG+ as refining your build combinations—not re-learning traversal gates from scratch.
Pair this with the Progression Guide and The Gap Guide when planning a second run.
Step-by-Step for a second run
- Finish or reach NG+ eligibility per in-game prompts (confirm in your save).
- List combat abilities and artifacts you want to keep as core.
- Use NG+ flexibility to equip multiple abilities from the same boss when unlocked.
- Re-earn traversal through story/Fault missions as the world re-gates routes.
Tips
Not yet verified Exact NG+ unlock timing and menu labels should be confirmed in-game before publishing step screenshots.
