New Game Plus in Assassin’s Creed Shadows: Revealed!

New game plus is a popular feature in many modern games, allowing players to restart their journey with all levels, equipment, and progress from their initial playthrough. If you're curious about whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* includes this feature, here's what you need to know.

Does Assassin’s Creed Shadows Have New Game Plus?

The short answer is no, *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* does not offer a new game plus mode. If you wish to experience the story again, you'll need to start a new save file from scratch. Unfortunately, you won't be able to carry over any items or equipment from your first playthrough.

However, once you've completed the game and rolled the credits, you can continue to explore the expansive open-world of Feudal Japan. This gives you the chance to complete any remaining side quests and hunt for the legendary gear, engravings, and animals scattered throughout the game.

So, even without new game plus, there's still plenty of side content to enjoy after finishing the main storyline. Given that *Shadows* doesn't feature multiple endings and dialogue choices have minimal impact on the story, there's little incentive to replay the game through new game plus to explore different narrative paths. A single thorough playthrough should be enough to fully experience everything the game has to offer.

Hopefully, this clarifies whether *Assassin’s Creed Shadows* includes new game plus. For more tips and information on the game, including how to redeem pre-order bonuses and a complete list of main quests, be sure to check out The Escapist.
