Much like its spiritual predecessors, Bloodborne will feature a New Game Plus mode, which ramps up the challenge after you've already seen the game through.
The news comes from game director Hidetaka Miyazaki, who told MCV that "yes, there will be a New Game Plus mode - we're having trouble beating it, though." We bet that all you masochists are practically shaking with anticipation right now, eh?
Do you think that you'll be up for slogging through Bloodborne again once you're done? Step over our graves in the comments section below.

Excellent news, now I know there is New Game Plus I'll be doing a couple of playthroughs. With the Chalice Dungeons, New Game Plus & Multiplayer it looks like Bloodborne will take over my life, Praise the sun.
-If you thought From Software was going soft, Hidetaka Miyazaki is about to put you brutally back in your place. (This is what we want to hear)
-There is a new mechanic they are not allowed to discuss.
@banacheck Actually based on how this game is looking shouldn't we be praising the moon instead?
Usually when I do a second play through of a game it's usually during a game drought month, and that's not looking to be the case so far this year with so many releases coming and so many more to be announced. Who knows though, I'll possibly end up attempting a new game plus a month or two later after my first one.
My masochistic self is also cynical. Where when I hear "we are having trouble beating it" means they are not able to test it enough and it's going to be bugged, broken, and probably just unbalanced overall. Difficulty is fine, when it involves skill and not just an enemy that has 3x more health 2x the damage. Dark souls added specters to surprise you and add a new challenge. Bullet sponge enemies(or sword sponges I guess) are not fun.
This is exactly what I want to hear. Give me a challenge worthy of the Miyazaki name and I am there, and I WILL conquer.
@Valedrel It's Miyazaki we are talking about.. That statement could mean ANYTHING is possible with NG+.
Kill me now
Just finished reading Edges 10 page hands-on verdict on Bloodborne, [As if there was any doubt, Miyazaki and his team have done it again] I'm calling it now 10/10, or at the very least 9/10.
