By popular demand, Days Gone is joining the ranks of big-name PlayStation 4 titles that offer New Game+ mode. You’ll soon be able to hit the zombie-infested road all over again while retaining your gear and upgrades, and Sony Bend is also adding new difficulty options Hard II and Survival II alongside some related trophies. Be on the lookout for a free update scheduled for September 13, 2019.

To transition into New Game+, you’ll just need your save file to be past “I’m Never Giving Up.”

As for what carries over, there’s quite a lot: “weapons, bike upgrades, NERO boosters, skills, recipes, encampment trust and credits, collectibles, and trophy progress.” Patches you earn in Days Gone‘s weekly challenges also work, so if you’re going for a harsher difficulty, perks can make a difference.

IPCA tech, crafted items, materials/crafting items, freaker ears, and animal meat won’t transfer.

These days, New Game+ seems like more and more of a staple, and I’m all about it. Days Gone is long as hell, but after you’ve invested so much time in a world and its characters, it’s tough to say goodbye.
