Starfield New Game+, explained – how to start New Game Plus

Starfield’s adventure doesn’t have to end with the end of the main story. At the end of the final mission, you’ll have the choice to stick around and explore further, or reset the universe and start your game (mostly) fresh. Starfield doesn’t technically call this mode “New Game Plus” but Starfield also calls a jetpack a “boost pack” and a lockpick a “digipick.” Even if the game doesn’t, for clarity on this matter, we’re calling it what it is: New Game Plus.

We’ll try to explain everything in a spoiler-free way as much as we can, but bear in mind the final section of this guide You can also find out more about us on our website. contain minor spoilers.

The following are some of the ways to improve your own ability. Starfield New Game Plus guide will explain when you’ll have to make the choice, and what New Game Plus looks like in the Settled Systems.


New Game+ is available in Starfield

Starfield’s final mission, “One Giant Leap,”You will be asked to decide whether you want to complete the story or start New Game Plus. If you decide to delay the ending, you’ll have the option to return to it at any point. Meanwhile, you’ll be free to just continue along like you have been.

The decision is actually baked right into “One Giant Leap” because of [SPOILERS]. For similar [SPOILERS] reasons, it’s not actually called “new game plus.” You just continue along at the same XP and level, and with the same skills and Powers. However, you will lose your inventory and all items such as weapons, ships, cash, cargo and money.

In new game plus, you’ll have the option to skip the main story missions, but everything else is reset. You’ll have a fresh start with all of the factions, and every side quest will be available again. You’ll also have a fresh start with the Constellation members.

According to what we have seen, enemies in the game aren’t scaled-up.

You’ll get a new spacesuit and ship for your trouble, though. We’ll talk about that below the spoiler warning.

Starborn Guardian has a lot of respectable features. It’s got 1,045 kg of cargo, a 30 light year jump distance, and lots of fuel. It’s got room for 5 crew and a beefy set of weapons. It’s not, however, customizable and it’s not, frankly, the best ship you can buy or build. The ship looks cool.


Starfield New Game + Powers

The main advantage of completing all side missions is that you will have a new start with your factions. You can also reset your relationship with your friends and companions. Starfield’s New Game Plus is that you get to keep collecting artifacts and Powers.

There’s only a set number of artifacts, their associated temples, and the Powers you gain there that you can pick up during the main mission on your first playthrough. When you reset the universe, though, you’ll have a new set to discover (in new locations).

You can get 24 Powers, which are distributed at random. When you come across a Power you already have, you’ll get an upgraded version of that power — like Personal Atmosphere II The image below shows the above.

Having a new set of artifacts and temples to find increases the likelihood that you’ll pick up a better version of the Power — or, at least, help you fill in the Powers you don’t have yet.
