The Witcher 3 Is Getting a New Game Plus Mode

[Dohc-WP]

A New Game Plus mode is being added to The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, CD Projekt has announced.

The news was revealed in a post on Twitter, confirming that this will serve as the game's final piece of free DLC. Additionally, the studio noted that it won't be out this week, as additional time is needed to prepare it for launch.

The Witcher 3's latest patch rolled out earlier this month, serving up a number of fixes for the open-world RPG, while also introducing some framerate issues for those on Xbox One and PS4.

Hell Yes!!! This is exactly what I have been waiting for. Glad it's not coming out this week as I am currently working towards the Bloodborne platinum trophy and I still need some time to do that. Once this drops it's back to Witcher 3 for me though.

Nice that CD: Projekt have met all their free DLC promises, and are finishing up with a NG+ mode. All the more reason to actually finish the game for the first time now.

Good grief. I'm just trying to finish the game *once*.

(But I love CD Projekt Red for the amount of love we're getting in The Witcher 3.)

New game plus allows you to play the game from the beginning with your already beefed up character and gear once you've finished the story. It basically resets the story and all the enemies, quests and gear will scale to a higher level for your new playthrough. In a nutshell, it's awesome for people who want to do multiple playthroughs but don't want to start from the beginning with no skills.

AAh ok, so basically like Diablo . It does makes sense, since i recalled seeing like lvl 40? gear when i was like lvl 30ish and done with the game, i wondered how much grinding one would need to be able to use that gear (and still have anything left to do with the gear)

I'm absolutely loving this!

I wouldve played more skyrim if it allowed NG+ since I didn't get it on PC where there are a myriad of mods available. Like Jan I'm still trying my first playthrough, only lvl18 still but I dont mind the slow leveling at all.
