Wuchang: Fallen Feathers is finally out worldwide, and players are already diving into the dark fantasy world of Shu. The game’s intense difficulty spikes will definitely test long-time fans of the genre, though it might also intimidate newcomers to the Soulslike experience.
Many are now wondering whether Wuchang: Fallen Feathers offers more content after the first playthrough, allowing players to experiment with new builds and unlock the game’s multiple endings.
Does Wuchang: Fallen Feathers Have New Game Plus?
Yes, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers features a New Game Plus mode, which is automatically unlocked once you defeat the final boss.
After the credits roll, you’ll be given the option to either start a fresh save file or continue into another cycle. If you want a clean slate with nothing carried over, choose the regular New Game option. But if you’d rather keep your progress, selecting the new cycle is the way to go.
What Carries Over in New Game Plus?
Just like in most Soulslike games, nearly everything carries over into New Game Plus. This includes:
- Wuchang’s player level and Impetus Repository upgrades
- All unlocked disciplines for weapons (i.e., weapon skills)
- All armor, items, and weapons found during your playthrough, except quest items
- All skill tree upgrades, including Manna Vase count
- All Benedictions
- All Acupoints
- All Jade Pendants
- All spells from defeated bosses
- All four chisels (the fourth one depends on your choice)
- All bamboo shoots gathered
You can also respec your skill tree at no cost, making it easy to start fresh with a new weapon or build if you prefer. The other things that do not carry over are quest items tied to NPC progression and the main story.
Fast travel locations are also reset, as keeping them would disrupt the flow and structure of the game.
What’s New in New Game Plus?
While almost all items and upgrades carry over, the difficulty does increase significantly. Regular enemies will have slightly more health and will deal more damage.
Boss fights, in particular, become more punishing, hitting much harder than in the first playthrough. This challenge ramps up even further in subsequent New Game Plus runs.
More importantly, New Game Plus encourages players to explore new builds and uncover hidden secrets that may not be accessible during a first run. It also gives you another chance to solve all the mysterious door riddles correctly, or to aim for a 100% completion if you’re a true completionist.
