Elden Ring New game plus increased difficulty: Is Journey 2 harder?

Elden RingThe new game’s bonus mode gives players the chance to reset the story and replay the entire story, but with their stats and gear. To help balance the current OP player, increasing difficulty would make sense for Journey 2 and beyond. Is that the case? Here’s everything you need to know about the new game Elden Ring plus difficulty.

Is the new game Elden Ring harder?

Elden Ring is getting harder and harder in the new game. With each new Journey, enemies become harder to take down.

Those who think the Elden Ring is tough on their first level will be rudely awakened when they start Journey 2, that’s for sure. The good news is that the new game adds the character’s armor and weapons, most of their inventory, etc.

Players won’t be as vulnerable as they were in the early stages of Elden Ring, but the attacks and spells they master during the first playthrough will be a lot less effective.

As a reward for the increased difficulty of Journey 2, the player is entitled to a Rune multiplier. This greatly increases the number of Runes the enemy drops. This makes leveling up and buying new gear much faster, especially at the higher, triple digit levels.

Since it is not possible to return to “Journey 1”, players will have to make the difficult decision of whether to take advantage of the new plus game. While the Runes multiplier will certainly help progress towards the level cap, the increase in challenge can make it difficult to progress.
