After announcing Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds at E3, Guerrilla Games has today introduced what version 1.30 of the game holds. The highlights includes New Game+ and the Ultra Hard Difficulty.

New Game+ will allow you to continue your adventures without losing character progression and your inventory, but you still won’t be able to progress past level 50.

You can also choose ‘Ultra Hard’ difficulty before starting a new game. This will limi health regeneration and also enhance machine senses and behaviour. You won’t be able to turn this down mid-game either, so you’re gonna have a challenge.

Brand new versions of existing weapons and outfits will also be patched in with an extra modification slot. You’ll need to pay a significant amount of shards for these.

We have also added updated versions of existing weapons and outfits with an extra modification slot at your disposal. These will not come cheap and will set you back some extra shards.

Lastly, New Game+ will come with two new trophies and also some new unlockable content which will change Aloy’s appearance.
