How To Avoid Ng+ Elden Ring

In Elden Ring, entering New Game Plus (NG+) is completely optional and not automatic—you have full control over whether and when to begin it. Here’s how to avoid NG+:

🛑 How to Avoid New Game Plus (NG+)

  1. Don’t select “Begin Journey 2” at the end of the game.
    • After defeating the final boss (Elden Beast), the game will show the ending cutscene.
    • Then, you’ll return to Roundtable Hold with a new prompt at the Site of Grace.
    • You’ll see an option:
      ✅ “Begin Journey 2
      ❌ “Do Not Begin Yet
  2. Choose “Do Not Begin Yet.”
    • This keeps you in your current game (NG).
    • You can continue exploring the open world, completing quests, clearing dungeons, and collecting items.
    • There is no time limit—you can begin NG+ whenever you want from this point.

🧠 Useful Notes

  • The prompt to enter NG+ will always be available at Roundtable Hold’s Site of Grace once you’ve beaten the final boss.
  • You can still complete any areas or quests you missed, like:
    • Haligtree / Miquella’s Tree
    • Mohgwyn Palace
    • Volcano Manor
    • Deep Root Depths
    • Side quests (Ranni, Fia, Millicent, etc.)

📌 Summary

To avoid NG+ in Elden Ring, simply select “Do Not Begin Yet” after finishing the game. You can stay in your current game indefinitely and keep playing.
