Starting a New Game+ (NG+) in Persona 5 Royal offers several advantages and unique challenges:
Carried Over:
- Social Stats: All maxed social stats carry over.
- Compendium: Your Persona Compendium (and registered Personas) carries over.
- Money: All your money carries over.
- Equipment: All weapons, armor, and accessories carry over.
- Skill Cards: All Skill Cards carry over.
- Key Items: Certain key items (e.g., gifts from maxed Confidants) carry over.
New Content/Challenges:
- Secret Bosses: Access to secret bosses like Jose and the Reaper.
- Omnipotent Orb: A powerful accessory that grants immunity to all attacks except Almighty (obtained from the Reaper).
- Challenge Battles: New challenges in the Thieves Den.
- Faster Progression: With maxed social stats, you can focus entirely on Confidants and Mementos.
- Merciless Difficulty: A new, extremely challenging difficulty option.
NG+ is ideal for achieving 100% completion, maxing all Confidants, and tackling the toughest optional content.
