The Starfield New Game Plus mode is quite a surprise. That’s because it’s the first Bethesda game to have one. Moreover, its integration into the campaign and narrative is very interesting and well done, too. Our guide discusses what you can expect from Starfield’s New Game Plus mode, with all its quirks and changes. Also, it goes without saying that this article contains spoilers.

What to expect from New Game Plus mode in Starfield

You can try the Starfield New Game Plus mode once you’ve completed the Revelations final mission. Once you decide to go to the Unity to see the endings, you’re given a choice:

• If you walk toward the Unity (i.e. the big sparkly orb in the center), you’ll begin your New Game Plus run as a Starborn in an “alternate” universe.
• If you walk away from the Unity, back to the edge of the area (i.e. the darkness), you’ll return to your ship and you’ll be able to continue your exploration in the “main” universe.

What carries over in New Game Plus

The Starfield New Game Plus feature lets you carry over the following:

• All traits – Most traits are set in stone anyway.
• All skills – You get to keep your unlocked skills, as well as their leveling tallies. Since there is no level cap, you can continue to acquire new and higher-tier skills.
• All obtained powers – All the powers you’ve unlocked in your playthrough will still be present. Moreover, we’ve noticed that temples now provide upgraded variants–i.e. Anti-Gravity Field II or Personal Atmosphere II.
• The Frontier – Whether or not you sold the Frontier, it’ll still be with you when you begin your New Game Plus run.
