New Game+: carry-over, new choices and NG++ status
New Game+ carries much of your progression into a fresh run. NG++ is a separately announced update; an October target is a plan, not proof that it has arrived.

What carries into New Game+
Remedy's April 30 developer overview explicitly excludes traversal abilities from carry-over: movement powers unlock again with story progression. Keep that distinction separate from the combat abilities that persist.
- Aberrant upgrades and unlocked supernatural combat abilities.
- Talents and Artifacts.
- Health and combat-resource upgrades.

What opens up in the next run
Remedy's New Game+ announcement describes additional talent nodes, the ability to equip multiple abilities from the same Resonant, and a fourth Artifact slot. Enemies and some Resonant encounters can also change.
Before starting, keep notes on the combinations you wanted to try. A new slot creates room to experiment, but it does not make a copied first-run setup automatically ideal.

Finish your current run or start another?
You can continue playing after the main story. Choose that option if your immediate goal is finishing side quests or discovering World Feats. Choose New Game+ when the goal is a fresh story run with your carried progression.
If your cleanup depends on late-story movement powers, continue the current run while those powers remain available. A New Game+ run resets traversal access until you reach the relevant story unlocks again.

NG++ is a separate rollout
The September 25 post-launch announcement says the launch New Game+ permits one additional run and targets repeatable NG+ runs for October. It also targets Photo Mode for November. Check the current patch notes before relying on either feature.
