How to Unlock New Game Plus in Beast of Reincarnation – NG+ Carry-Over Items and Difficulty

New Game Plus is the second-run mode for a completed character in Beast of Reincarnation. It unlocks after the main story, lets you replay with your built Emma and Koo, and turns the return trip into a harsher post-game challenge instead of a simple cleanup run.

New Game Plus verdict for Beast of Reincarnation

Once you finish the story, you can begin New Game Plus with your completed save. The mode matters because it carries forward your core build progress while pushing enemies beyond the standard Hard setting.

New Game Plus carry-over in Beast of Reincarnation

The important carry-over set is the part that defines how your character actually plays: skills, attributes, weapons, and enhancements. That means your second run begins around the build you shaped in the first run, rather than wiping Emma and Koo back to a fresh-file state.

This is why late-game upgrades are still valuable even if you are close to the ending. Improvements to Emma’s trees, Koo’s tree, weapon strength, and enhancement setup all feed into the replay, where the game expects a stronger character.

What are the carry-over items in NG+

The carry-over rules do not spell out exact behavior for currency totals, consumables, ammo, crafting materials, or quest/key items. Before entering New Game Plus, spend or stock with that limitation in mind, and check the game’s own transition screen for your save if it lists more detail.

Quest and key items are especially worth treating separately from build progress. NG+ modes commonly reset story gates, and Beast of Reincarnation’s available rules only lock in the build-defining carry-over categories listed above.

Difficulty in Beast of Reincarnation New Game Plus

Reincarnation+ refers here to the New Game Plus challenge tier above Hard; check the label on your own save before relying on that exact English menu wording. Functionally, it is the post-game difficulty layer attached to repeat runs.

Enemies become tougher in NG+, and the mode is framed around bringing a completed build into more punishing encounters. The game does not give public health, damage, reward, or scaling multipliers, so plan for the simple version that matters: enemies hit harder and last longer than they did on your first run.

Trophy planning for New Game Plus

The Reincarnated trophy turns New Game Plus from optional replay content into required completion content. If you are aiming for Platinum or 100%, budget for at least two full clears: your first story run, then an NG+ completion.

That freedom matters on the first run. You can pick the base difficulty that lets you learn combat, build Emma and Koo cleanly, and still keep your trophy route intact before the harder second run begins.

First-run prep before New Game Plus

Use the first playthrough to strengthen the systems that carry over. Emma has progression paths tied to ranged weapons, hair abilities, and Entanglement Overdrive, while Koo has a separate tree of his own; investing across the tools you actually use gives your NG+ build a better starting point.

Attributes also deserve attention because Strength, Vitality, and Fluorescence affect core combat stats and can gate bonuses in the skill trees. A lopsided setup can work if it matches your playstyle, but NG+ punishes weak defensive habits more quickly.

Misconceptions about New Game Plus

New Game Plus is part of the launch game, not a later update. Early uncertainty around the mode came from pre-release timing; once you finish the story, the replay path is available through the completed save flow.

Story difficulty also does not lock you out of trophy or ending progress. The bigger misconception is that NG+ is just optional challenge content: for completionists, the Reincarnated trophy makes one NG+ clear mandatory.
