      Patch 8 added New Game +.
      Once you've completed the main campaign, go to “Single Player” and choose “New Game +”. Select the save file you wish to convert to a New Game + save and then select empty save slot to put it there.
      Lol this wiki is pathetic. If its not 100% game that they like and worship they do almost no info updating.

        This game sorely needs an option to restart with your XP and gear and with enemies scaled to your level. I'd love to play through again but starting from the beginning with nothing again would be too tedious and the opposite of entertaining.
