News - God of War Ragnarök : Bock auf New Game Plus? Na dann los!
- PS5
- PS4
Wer sich bereits durch God of War Ragnarök gekämpft und noch immer nicht die Nase voll hat, der darf sich freuen, denn das New Game Plus Update ist endlich da.
Noch ein bisschen mehr God of War Ragnarök gefällig? Dann könnt ihr euch nun ins New Game Plus stürzen, denn das zugehörige Update wurde nun veröffentlicht, sodass ihr euch nun unter erschwerten Bedingungen erneut in den Kampf stürzen könnt.
Im New Game Plus startet ihr mit der kompletten Ausrüstung aus eurem normalen Spielstand, allerdings ohne die Schall- und Siegel-Pfeile. Auch den Draupnir-Speer habt ihr somit schon im Inventar, könnt ihn aber natürlich nur ab den entsprechenden Story-Abschnitten benutzen. Ebenso ist auch die Rüstung des Schwarzbären bereits vorhanden.
Beim New Game Plus gibt es zudem eine erhöhte Levelgrenze und ihr könnt Level-9-Ausrüstung in Plus-Ausrüstung umwandeln und weiter leveln. Es gibt neue Verzauberungen, die ihr in eurem Amulett-Slot ausrüsten könnt, neue Berserker-Seele-Drops mit großen Status-Verzauberungen und eine neue Reihe von Burdens genannten, schwerigkeitssteigernden Verzauberungen. In der Nilfheim-Arena warten neue Gegner auf euch, zudem könnt ihr einen von insgesamt acht Charakteren an eurer Seite kämpfen lassen.
Dafür gibt es einen Haufen an neuer Ausrüstung, die ihr freischalten könnt. Dazu gehören unter anderem die Ares- und Zeus-Rüstungen aus dem Vorgängerspiel, aber auch eine neue Spartaner-Rüstung als besondere Herausforderung, denn die gibt euch weder Perks noch Attribute. Hinzu kommen auch neue Farbkombinationen. Hier die Patchnotes von Update 4.00 nebst New Game Plus im Detail:

Known Issue Introduced in Patch v. 04.00
We have identified certain cases with NG+ equipment not interacting with trophy unlocks appropriately:
- "Dragon Slayer" trophy cannot be earned during NG+ if the player did not craft the Dragon Scale armor during their first playthrough on base game.
- "Phalanx" trophy will not be earned if the player crafts a 9+ shield prior to crafting every other type of shield.
Our team is working on a fix that will retroactively unlock and display all earned trophies earned by the player once implemented.
