New Game+ Overview

New Game+ Overview

For those who have conquered the galaxy once, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order offers a New Game+ mode, allowing players to relive Cal's journey with enhanced challenges and retained progression. This overview covers what to expect when starting a New Game+ playthrough.

New Game+ (NG+) in Fallen Order allows you to start the game over from the beginning, but with several key advantages. Your character's progression from your previous playthrough, including unlocked skills, Force powers, and collected cosmetic items, is carried over. This means you can tackle the story with a fully powered Cal, making the initial stages sificantly easier.

What Carries Over:

• Skills and Abilities: All learned Force powers and combat skills are retained.
• Cosmetic Items: Lightsaber parts, BD-1 skins, Cal's outfits, and Mantis paint jobs are all unlocked from the start.
• Experience Points: While your skill points are retained, you will earn new experience to potentially unlock any remaining skills or experiment with different builds.

The primary draw of New Game+ is the opportunity to experience the story again with a greater understanding of the mechanics and a more powerful character. This allows for a more relaxed playthrough focused on story or for attempting higher difficulties with a sificant advantage.

New Additions and Changes:

1. Increased Difficulty (Optional): While not explicitly stated as a separate mode, enemies in NG+ can feel more challenging due to your familiarity with their patterns. Some players opt to play on higher difficulties for a fresh challenge.
2. New Collectibles/Challenges: While the core game remains the same, the focus shifts. Players might aim for 100% completion of collectibles or achievements they missed.
3. Meditation Arena Access: The Meditation Arena, introduced in a post-launch update, becomes accessible earlier, allowing for combat practice and challenge runs.
4. No Story Progression Reset for Abilities: You start with all your Force powers, which can trivialize some early-game puzzles that were desed around acquiring them gradually.

New Game+ is an excellent way to revisit the world of Fallen Order, experiment with different combat styles, and appreciate the narrative from a new perspective. It offers a satisfying conclusion for players who have invested sificant time into the game.
