- New Game Plus, accessible after completing the game, brings with it new unlockable blades, altered skill trees, and other exciting new features while carrying over almost all your progression. In this video, I go into detail about some of the biggest questions people have about New Game Plus, and showcase some of the most exciting new changes. I think I said Zeke's Eye of Shining Justice wrong. Forgive me for that one, haha!
Thank you for watching! Stay tuned for the next one.

looks like rex is getting that 4 way after all.
God dammit. xD
You beat me to it
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I was looking for this comment Lol
Exactly what I was thinking xD
Honestly the new title screen may be the best part of NG+
Cause 2 is not enough... 👀
The Harem is now stronger.
Imagine if the whole gang joined omg..
Final Sentinel Whats the Eye of Shining Justice then?
Final Sentinel Nia's like, hehe back off Pyra gimme his hand
6:47 and the Nia fans all screamed...
That menu card at the end is so heartwarming. It really does show how Rex cares about Nia just as much as Pyra/Mythra. Even though it may not be seen that way to some.
Nameless Gamer 29 I don't think there was a Pyra/Mythra after that. It's straight up Pyra and Mythra.
Well, he basically friendzoned her.... Poor Nia
AzraelXG
Friends with benefits
I love you and ALL YOU GUYS
@@HeilRay LOL XD
Damn i just wanted malos and his monado
I have a feeling he is the rare blade that comes with the DLC.
Jason A Would love to have the Monado with its own menu
I know they will
MONADO CYCLONE
well is gona be terrible akward the final battle.
rex:WE COME TO DEFEAT YOU MALOS!
malos:COME TO ME HEROES IF YOU DARE!
(malos notice Rex blade.... MALOS)
malos:WTF THIS DOES NOT COMPUTE!
malos explode and the game end
Remember guys, now you can unequip pyra and use Rex as a dedicated healer using blade-form nia!
Once you get blade nia.
Jesus, that's what I've wanted the entire game. Why must all this stuff be locked behind NG+? I still have Torna and Definitive to digest before I can touch 3. Who has time?
I have discovered the absolute powerhouse that is Crossette and I am giddy 😃
So I had this theory.... when I got to chapter 3, I saw Vandham stayed at the same level he was when I finished it in my first playthrough. So I had the idea to get him to lvl 99 by farming the Ancient Sauros in Gormott. No way they can kill a level 99 at lvl 30ish, right?
Nope.... I tried so hard to make him live. Q~Q
Steven Ruest I'm pretty sure party members don't need to be active to gain experience though
They don't. I'm just saying I got Vandham to level 99 because I could. o3o
Steven Ruest LIVE! LIVE FOR US, VANDHAM! YOU'VE GOT TO MAKE IT PAST THAT CHAPTER!
That means we can use vandham for experience farming without hurting the rest of our squad.
Lmao Vandham died to a level 60, this is what happens when you have no self sustain and a hp down/evasion.
Y'ALL why is Jin not playable. I need his topple, launch smash move in my life forever. lol
Nikki CTU basically easy mode lol
NG+ is easy mode is you stay your same level throughout. Like they have the data and assets for it. He even has battle quotes. Sucks he's only playable in chapter 7 :( even after NG+ was added.
Nikki CTU maby he was the glitch he was sopposed to be in ng+ originally
Maybe if you say start new game and then choose newgame plus its different, but i started from the menu option that said new game plus. You may just be screwed now cuz your data is already overwritten.
because his F%^&ing powerlevel is over 9000!!! if you want to finish the game with jin solo it might be fun xD
2:41 Wait, you mean Zeke wasn’t just fibbing in that one scene? Dang.
But the real question is, does he have his second contact lens or not?
I guess he isn't actually the one-eyed monster then?
I have a feeling Zeke is actually a blade (his father doesnt look like him at all, Zeke barely looks Tantalese) and his driver was the Kings wife whom he ate hence him leaving, and he had to make up that lie.
Freshly Memed
No...just...no
Shakiah Johnson welp finished the game and i was half right but mostly wrong, seriously though why does zeke not look tantalese and more, i guess ardanian since they are pretty much regular humans
I wish Akhos’s weapon was his actual bow, imagine a much faster loading Ether Cannon healer with Nia, kind of a let down if you ask me.
his weapon is a *scythe* but i would imagine it would be slower than an either cannon because you would have to draw back the arrow and then release to shoot, whereas the ether cannon probably has like a trigger or something.
Chipserz I wish severs weapon wasn’t like the knuckles, mainly because when Malos used it, it turns into a shield and a sword.
That's honestly what I was expecting.
wAIT ITS NOT A BOW?!!!
roobix cubix it also looks really dumb at the start of a chain attack because it uses the same stance as the knuckles, despite only have one weapon.
I just want to see zeke’s eye of shining justice
Personnaly, I wished I could play Fan and Lila in New game +...
Tom Créhange I wished I could play Jin permanently too...
LaPokéfanatica jin would be beyond broken for farming though, solo smashing an enemy with a single art
Pokémon Mastah101 so shes just as trash in being a dps or tank compared to Poppi α and QTπ?
Remember that one blade bana has (not rosa)
It seems torna golden country is gonna answer your guys’ prayers
I like how Nia joins the treesome in the title screen, waifus must not be left out
2:42 *Megalovainia intensifies*
Pneuma's 4th Stage special is crazy broken. I just got to chapter 4 in NG+ and I'm starting to wonder if i could two-shot the final boss
Thank you for your hard work! I've been searching for more in depth info all day and, and I was so close to starting ng+. I now know what's in it and what I need to do :)
I'm glad I could be of help! :D
6:50 this is so fricking cute!!
I swear to god, you and nn li help so much with stuff in this game, whether missions guide, farming tactics, etc. you guys help so much. Keep up the great work.
Thank you! I'm glad I could be of help :)
Thank god, I was waiting for something like this to come out all day yesterday as I was going through new game+ so I could get the torna blades
Not many games reward you with a default harem ending!
Thanks, I was actually really shocked to find out there was a lot of confusion around how to get the 6 new blades, obviously excluding mik, but yeah no one directly said how you can get them, so its great to know I can get them early on with all my Pre-NG+ legendary Core Crystals.
I was starting to think I'd have to get them latter on, and resonate with their crystals like Roc, or do a side mission, but this method is chill, I can Cloud Save Refresh to cheat the unfair RNG.
Haha! I love how Nia specifically cuts in between Rex and Pyra!
Wow i cant believe he forgot that the best blade in the game, 1 star gokuto, also is locked story blade and u gotta wait to get him
You can also skip now the awakening scene when you bond with the core crystal
Dat Boi but that's in the first playthrough as well :p
Shinon well yeah but you don't have to press + and A to skip it
Dat Boi you didn't understand, I meant it was added to the first playthrough too, and since this video is about the content exclusive to ng+, that's why he didn't mention it
Shinon Ohh ok sorry for that 😁
Syuna yeah i noticed sorry 😅
Yes! I have been waiting for this video! But how did you make Zeke so OP at the ending?
THE EYE OF SHINING JUSTICE!!!!!
aww i wish the title screen included the other cast oo. but Nia is a very good start :D
ive noticed that a lot of the blade sidequests if you havent completed a leg of the quest resets too, say with elecra or agate, if you havent completed the numbers for one of the levels that will reset
Hey thanks for the video, amazing! Just a question, items equipped, like chips o accessory..remain in ng+? Or poppi pieces for example
Gotta say, besides them making Torna blades Core summons, this update has been the absolute best
I’m not sure whether you want to edit this, but there are more things you can buy with bonus exp; there are travelling bards in places after tantal.
NIAAA
I hope in the second one Tora or Poppi joins!
That's cool I myself began to play ng+ a few days ago but just a question: how do you get the new blades ? Through legendary core crystals or after beating 'em ?
So if all of the stages for tiger tiger are available right at the beginning we can still farm stage 5 for the Light Core element and master mods towarss the beginning of NG+ Right?
2:42 Looks like someone's gonna have a
*BAD TIME*
I'm sorry I had to 😂
You are the coolest xenoblade youtuber i know! Thanks this cool Tutorials!
Thank you for this video again. Been going through NG + myself. Now that we can "buy" Overdrive Protocols as well as farm them, I'm rethinking the way I've distributed my blades between drivers. Roles? Modifiers? Other criterias? If you had to redistribute them, how would you do it? Keep up the good work!
I'm saving my Overdrives for when I find a build that needs a blade for a specific driver! For example, maybe I need Dagas active on a specific driver so that I can take advantage of his party wide damage boost! And thanks :)
I subscribed instantly because of that haruhi soundtrack :)
Thanks for this Information. :-D
You can also buy Poppi mods in the Land of Morytha and the World Tree with those Traveling Bards
Thank you for the video I got what it said but didn’t fully understand thank you for the video and 500th
So useful. Thanks!
5:58 YES! THANK YOU! lol
awww so sweet. Nia is in the group too. 4 ways yo. Rex you lucky bastard,.
Holy fuck this is insane. The main game already had a shit load of stuff to do, NG+ adds more. Then with the expansion pass, adds even MORE! And this is just the main game!! There's a prequel story game with even MORE content with its own new battle system and other mechanics. This just might be the best game on Switch.
Good so I’m smart for finishing all my poppi forms before NG+
I wish all the Tornan blades had unique side story quests...
Akhos: Twenty Questions
Patroka: The Crossroads of Destiny
Mikhail: Night of the Big Heat
Oberon: Passages
Cressidus: Easy Target
Perdido: There's No Place Like Home
Sever: A Matter of Perspective
Damn I’ve completed every single blade quest except Ursula’s and I was over half way through it so now I need to reset, worst part it Shes on Zeke so I gotta wait a while until I can start it
Brandonic why zeke though? Well i guess shes good on anyone with Overclocking Tree Drop build, spam lazy heals
I feel
1:29 so when Nia or morag or zeke rejoin your party they will have the same blades you left with? Right
Actually another blade you don't get is the Unnamed core crystal that Gramps gives Rex in Torigoth, the blade it awakens is the same as it awoke on the first playthrough
Jacob Hawkes
You mean Sheba's core?
No, that carries over. Same with Kasandra, Praxis, and Theory.
Kazutrash No, he gives your a special core crystal which gives a common blade
Oh yeah, that one. I think the blade was Yakumo?
I got confused because IIRC Sheba's core is called the Unnamed core crystal or something.
Kazutrash My blade was Goyo, seems it really was just a common core crystal.
Jacob Hawkes
Yeah I guess, but I got a wind healer blade named Yakumo both times, so I guess it's only random the first time?
o.O Wtf. Your original blades(not all, but around 80%) has the same drivers like I choosed (and randomly gained at their driver when I opend crystals) from the start lol
Question: if all quests are being reset in NG+, we can get the same rewards again such as fast blade switch vi?
Charu002 little late but yup
Derick Burgos
Just a lil xD
I'm really happy I maxed out the core crystals cuz I got 5 new rare blades in chapter 1 but I didn't know Mikhail couldn't be opened so I wasted a bunch of boosters...
I really want to start NG+ but
Not only have I not finished ursulas quest
I also still have two blades to get. Zenobia and (of course) kos-mos
How has it already been 5 years since I first played this incredible game 😫😫😫
And then there's me, who started it less than two months ago. Just fixing my major mistakes in life.
@@YoshiAteTooManyYoshiCookies I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Was a slow start, but for some reason it didn't stop me from getting hooked! I didn't put the game down until 400+ hours later, after finishing collecting all the blades (I love to take my time with games). If I grew up with this game series as a kid, it probably would've impacted me as hard as Kingdom Hearts did 🙌❤️❤️
@@ryuman757 well, uh, I already beat the game plus DLC. I'm currently trying to get to level 99 and have already beaten both beeg monkes on Gormott and I also beat three superbosses.
Why did they give one of the bards a legendary core crystal for sale like we dont have enough already
was really hoping for aux core expansion kit
Please tell the ending song is the original one at the 2nd go-through ending.. cause it fits so fucking much
I think it's silly that after they said NG+ was "for fun", they took away things like Rex's Master Driver skill or Nia as a Blade until they're unlocked normally.
If it's for fun, why take that stuff away?
StickFigure They wanted the story to make some sense, maybe? Why have a scene about Rex becoming a Master Driver or Nia becoming a Blade if you already had them?
Why have a scene of Shulk unlocking the power of the Monado in the first Xenoblade when he already has the True Monado on New Game+?
Players have already experienced the story before they can try NG+, there's no point in making them having to work through it again.
I mean, you still have Ascended Pyra. I don't have any problems with Nia not being able to use her blade form, or Rex losing his Master Driver skill. Plus there is more then just those 2 things you know. Like all the blades you have, all the blades you can get. And so on.
Same, especially because I traded all my rares away from Rex since he could use them anyway. At least I have some commons with good modifiers to make Mythra more powerful
And Poppi's manuals, which are apparently also lost until retrieved
Ive got just one concern about NG+. Since story line blades like poppi's forms and Roc. Will they have their afinity tree's be reset as if they were completely new or will the have whatever you have one them before NG+?
Do you have to do all the rare blade quests again? I did all of the blade quests in my first playthrough. In other words, do they appear if you already completed them?
Well I'm definitely going to do new game plus now, i thought it was a whole lot different
Before I put my time into NG+, How do you see the new skills you unlock in the affinity chart?
This is my third playthrough I love this game
I've finally started NG+!!!
3:12
Oh. Wonderful.
New Ending screen with Nia! Welp I was gonna wait till I finished Ursula and Floren buuuuuuuuut
THANK YOU FOR THE NEW TITLE SCREEN IM EMOTIONAL NOW LMAO
I havent started yet because I'm doing the Ursula quest, it's quite disappointing that everything goes back to level 1, I havent seen anyone list it but i'd like to see the hidden affinity chart in full
also do we know if the effect of the affinity chart break is as strong as legendary beta scope?
Retroagv on the plus side tho, Ursula's quest is by far the most useful for filling out Affinity Chart Nodes, so it's not a complete bummer, I purposely didn't compleye Ursula's quest the first time around in order to use it for filling out the Torna Blades Affinity charts easily.
DMD00 do you need to finish all quest to get to new game plus
So I have a question do you re get the DLC pick up items you get or do you only get them once and then when you start the new game plus they're already collected
Well I saved ng and still have the star, but that seems to be the only thing that carried over don't have net connect to update on my switch so it's probably because of that which sucks
It would be nice to have Malos, Lila, and Fan as blades and being able to keep Vandam and Jin in the party...
How can you recharge you arts like on the clip of Rex (recover rechange?) And on Zeek at the end? What kind of sorcery are you using??!
One of Myhtra's passive abilities grants great chances to let you use the same skill again. There is a point where you can use the same skill 10 times in a row
It's gonna pain me to leave a quest undone, but I had enough with doing Ursula's quest once
looks at the new title.. O LOOKS ITS HIS HAREM :D
I killed all superbosses without a special team or something. By now I allready have a pretty strong team, and with NG+ it seems to only get even stronger. I just hope that the new story dlc will have a challenge where you will need all that advanced stuff.
There is a planned 'Challenge Mode' to be released prior to the New Story DLC! I'm looking forward to that :D
I just looked it up, somehow I completly forgot about it or overlooked it. Well, then at least I have that to look out for.
By the by, it sucks that Ursulas keyitems are gone, that just means I'll never finish her side story ever again.
WargasmicGaming you need 2 stacks of 99 stamps and one stack of around 60-70
so good luck
The best thing you can do at ng+ is start the game with level 1 and at the maximum difficult (herald of chaos).
Do the core chips that are already equipped to the blades carry over or am I going to reapply them again?
Amanwithbones Yes they carry over, I still have all my end game chips and their applied effects.
I cant use Nia as a blade either yet in NG+. Im assuming shes locked behind story progression as well or is there something Im missing?
Do I have to do all the sidequests of the different areas again in new game +? Or is it saved from the normal game and transferred into the new game +?
Quests you need to redo
6:56 jfc I'm *D Y I N G*
If you have specific core chips on blades will they stay on those blades or do you even get to keep those?
when you start new game plus can you get the season pass dlc stuff again or do you need to restart the game for that
So, if I already did the Ursula blade quest and completely maxed out her affinity, is there an option to do the quest again? Because it says NG+ resets quests but it says it keeps blade progression.
so any blades currently in the ownership by the main 4 drivers (not tora) don't have to be re-summoned?
If this was the free update I'm actually excited for the dlc now
Important Question: Can you still unlock rare blades in New Game + besides the listed 7? I'm missing 2 and I'm super close to just starting New Game + and unlocking them there
If Rex is wearing his Master Driver ability, can you use overdrive protocol on him? I was trying to transfer Kos-Mos from Zeke to Rex but it doesn't let me do that.
Do you know how obtain the Poppi Light Cristal!?! I saw in a video... O_o
Is there any place where I can see the Driver arts of each new weapon type?
Does booster expansion and other Merc quest rewards have the option to be gathered twice?
Having a hard time getting the Torna blades on new gsme plus
So I still haven't beat Ophion, do you think it'd be okay for me to start NG+ anyway since we can do NG+ multiple times?
I think they add hidden details with characters quotes though I could be wrong. Because I died with mythra as my blade and I swear she has a new quotes
Lukestar Ford I've heard new quotes this time around, I'm certain of it.
Stupid question: Is NG+ the same as a normal playthrough where you have to finished all 10 chapters again? Or is just for completing side quests for example?
Good thing i farmed 99 of each core crystal before doing new game plus to get those new rare blades
I wish they allowed our team to perform level 4 specials.
Can you get the free stuff from the expansion pass again in NG+?
Also they nerft core chip stacking so only the main blade has it effect active
Hi, how do you get the new branch skill tree for each player? Do I have to equip the beta scope accessory? If so, how do I get those beta scope accessories? Thanks. 🤔
You get it automatically by starting NG+
How do you know if you have new game +? I bought XC2 this year, and the dlc soon thereafter, do I have this then? I have challenge mode and three DLC blades
Late but yup, you have it
Is there a way to have up to 3 accessories? Or 3 aux cores on blades ? I being wanting 3 aux cores to mythra but don't know how to get them
Only 3 accessories! There's no way to expand aux cores.
