You may want to know, does Atomic Heart have a new game plus mode? Atomic Heart is an action RPG that takes place in an alternative history Soviet Union where they mastered technology and created a robotic labour force.

Throughout the game, you will upgrade your weapons and abilities to better deal with these mechanical menaces, but you may want another run at the game with all your equipment carried over from the first playthrough. 

So, take a look at whether Atomic Heart has a new game plus mode.

Atomic Heart currently has no new game plus mode, and once the credits have rolled and you are returned to the main screen, you can only load a previous save or start a new game on a different save file.

This means there is no way to play through once again with all the upgrades and equipment you'd gained previously, leaving you to start from scratch every time.

This may be a surprise for some, as a new game plus mode has become more and more common in modern gaming, as it's a simple way to increase the replayability of a game.

While it's not currently in the game, that doesn't mean Mundfish won't add the feature in a future update or DLC.

They've not confirmed any plans for new game plus, but they've already shown a willingness to listen to the community by adding an Atomic Heart FOV slider after launch, despite previously saying the game doesn't need one.

We'll make sure to update this guide if there is confirmation that new game plus will be coming to Atomic Heart in the future.

That's all for our answer to the question, does Atomic Heart have a new game plus mode? Now you know it currently doesn't and the developers haven't confirmed if they will add one in the future.
