Request to Add New Game Plus in an Update

[Pope John Paul II]

Hi everyone,

I’ve spent around 80 hours in Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, and while the game is amazing, there are a few issues that seriously impact replayability. The biggest one for me is the lack of a New Game Plus mode, which would allow us to start the campaign again with all the gear we’ve collected. After so many hours of clearing the map, I don’t feel like starting everything from scratch.

How could this be balanced?
• Stronger enemies – they could have better AI, improved stats, and new combat techniques.
• New armor and weapons – exclusive items for NG+ to make the next playthrough feel fresh.
• Better economy – merchants often don’t have enough money to buy our loot.

Many games, like Horizon, implement NG+ really well, making them much more replayable. I believe adding this feature in a future update would significantly improve KCD2’s longevity.

Does anyone else think NG+ should be added? Maybe the developers could respond to this? I played on PS5 PRO.

Cheers!

thing is this game doesnt have a super huge build limiting element like elden ring so a new game plus is pointless. at this point just do what elder scrolls players do and just learn the consol cheat codes and impute them at the start of a new play through.

On PS5 ? How ?

The NG+ is a needed thing for many of us because fill the "lose everyhing that i done" at the end of a run.

In many titles the player need work and sacrifice to obtain an item or do something, for example keep the weapon etc in Starfield is a really nice thing and the whole playing make more sense to many people.

Yeah we can start from scratch, and yes we can try different build but we always have a main character that we love, like that Chosen Undead in Dark Soul which has now reached Ng+4 and stiil go

New game plus is the recognition of the efforts made in the game

At least for me

i saw some clip last night about leveling early and it looked like if you level a skill during that first part in the woods you start with the level you got there (so like 20-something) instead of lvl 5 or whatever it is, so i mean you can at least level like strength, agility, vitality, sword, unarmed, stealth and thievery to like 20+ easily in like an hour unless they've patched it

(it was in french though and i don't speak french so i might've come to the wrong conclusion)

I completely agree. I honestly feel kind of cheated when I buy a game and there is no option for New game +. In assassin's Creed Valhalla, I played through the whole game without researching whether or not there was a new game plus and spent hours doing the collectibles to get mjolnir only to find out you can't use it at all in the story. To even get that weapon you have to complete the story Plus many other collectibles. I've not played an Ubisoft game since then.

There is no need for NG+ on PC.
We have mods for that. 😈

I love NG+ in some games but I don't think for KCD it's a must have. the hardcore mode however will be fun again.

This isn't dark souls.

don't break oter dreams, alas even dark soul or elden ring are masterpiece for a reason

The last one did not have it so neither will this one. Besides that, this is not the type of game for that. And if you really want to, you can do it with mods and cheats.

NG+ is overrated.

Some games would benefit from NG+, Im not sure that is the case for KCD though. Just playing normally and doing side quests you will max most of your skills by 30% into map 2, except for maybe combat skills.

For me skilling up is a huge part of the fun and motivating force to just go around exploring and doing sidethings, might actually be one of the few motivators to replay it even.

The problem is ng+ doesn't add anything for KCD2.
It simply takes stuff away from the game.
Because of your gear and stats, you will one shot basically everything early game without a full armor and if you use master strike, it's probably one shot too.

You will have everything. There is no point in alchemy. You will succeed in every thing.

If you have many gear from first playthrough, you will have very high charisma from the start. Having better economy means nothing. It just means you can sell some of your gear from first playthrough instantly and get a lot of free money.

And getting an entire new techniques and weapons seem basically impossible unless it was pre planned for a long time.

I think it's better to wait for hardcore. I think if it is like kcd1 where we just pick all negative perks and clean UI, it can be very fun for a new playthrough.

I mean if you don't wanna play a good game over it not having ng+, then you can. Like there is not much to say here.
I don't even see how it is even a proper feature honestly where people would expect it. The only game I expect ng+ and higher is souls game. That's it.

I don't know much open world rpg games with such features. Most people don't even finish a game once so for them to keep playing in ng+ seems a very small percentage of the player base just like hardcore in KCD1.
