Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth" Puzzlingly Requires a $15 Upgrade for New Game+ Access

 When you're diving into the expansive world of a hundred-hour RPG, New Game+ often becomes a handy tool for those looking to replay a game without the mental strain of starting from scratch. Some games, like the Persona series, even demand a New Game+ run for a complete and thorough gaming experience.

However, it's puzzling that Sega's upcoming game, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, is placing its New Game+ mode behind a paywall in the Deluxe and Ultimate editions, costing an extra $15 and $40 on top of the base game, respectively. This is surprising, especially for a series that traditionally reserved certain features, like the legendary difficulty mode, for New Game+ runs.

To be specific, New Game+ is bundled into the 'Master Vacation Bundle,' which is not included in the game's base version. According to the game's official information, this bundle also offers a bonus dungeon, special sujimon (similar to a Pokémon-like mode), resort guests, outfits, and more. Unfortunately, none of these specifics are available on the game's Steam page. While the page lists each edition and their associated bundles, it fails to provide details about what's included in each one. If you rely solely on the Steam page, it's reasonable to assume that a series that has traditionally offered New Game+ at no extra cost would include it in the standard edition. It feels a bit disappointing to have such a fundamental feature require at least a $15 upgrade. Yes, you get a few additional goodies, but they are more optional in nature.

There's a chance that this confusion stems from Sega's wording, but a vigilant Redditor noticed the situation about a month ago and confirmed its legitimacy. Unfortunately, my confidence in this being a misunderstanding is not high. Regardless, I've reached out to Sega for clarification on the matter, and I'll update this article if I receive any response.
