  4.  
  5. Skills
  6.  
  7. Runes
  8.  
  9. Blueprints
  10.  
  11. Inventory
  12.  
  13. Upgrades
  14.  
  15. Story-related tools such as the Grapple, Glider, Spectral Dash, and Claws will still need to be unlocked through the campaign at their intended story moments.
  16.  
  17. All collectibles from your first playthrough will also be available to collect again, including XP rewards, runes, blueprints, and more.
  18.  
  19. We've also added a dedicated end-game save before traveling to Akenash for the grand finale, allowing players to return and hunt down any collectibles they may have missed or simply revisit the game's environments, experiment with new strategies, and cause a little more trouble for the guards.

  21. Alongside New Game+, this update also brings several performance improvements and bug fixes.
  22.  
  23. Performance Improvements
  24. Optimized dead AI ragdolls, reducing their CPU cost by roughly 80%.
  25.  
  26. (PC only) Global Illumination now disables Lumen when set to LOW. AI light and shadow detection will fall back to a software implementation. While less precise than Lumen-based detection, this option is intended to improve performance on lower-end GPUs.
  27.  
  28. Bug Fixes
  29. Fixed a rare crash that could occur when an AI was unloaded during its update.
  30.  
  31. Fixed a side impulse applied to Styx when leaving a balloon after traveling between wharves.
  32.  
  33. Fixed an issue where kills performed with the Rune of the Wolf could permanently lock the music in its combat state.
  34.  
  35. Fixed an issue where grapple kills could permanently lock the music in its combat state.
  36.  
  37. Fixed dead AI occasionally returning to an idle standing pose.
  38.  
  39. Fixed DLC outfits being randomly applied or lost when loading save files from older versions. Loading affected saves will reset outfits and daggers to their default versions once.
  40.  
  41. Fixed the Equipment menu losing focus when using a gamepad if an equipped outfit variant was missing from the save.
