Repeat Playthroughs

You can access New Game + by exchanging one Badge of Honor at one of the vending machines in the Developer's Room. This feature allows you to start a new game while carrying over any EXP, FP, money, and items (besides the Charm of Karachi, Chocolate Bar, and Radio).

Your party member's levels will be the same as the previous playthrough, but if unless you get the same Stand from the Personality Evaluation, yours will not. This is due to each of the 18 Stand users being counted as separate characters in the database. However, the current Stand user's level will be retained should you select them on a future playthrough. For example, if you start out with Howlin' Wolf, then start a New Game + and get Miracles, your level will reset to 1. However, if you clear the game with Miracles and get Howlin' Wolf again, you'll have the same stats and skills as when you ended your first playthrough. However, using Cinderella to change back will reset your level to 1 regardless.

The game only counts the amount of repeat playthroughs on that save. This means that bad endings, Josuke's endings, and secret endings like the Dio and Hol Horse End will not be counted, as you cannot start a New Game + from them. Therefore, it's important to keep a save where the Developer's Room can still be accessed if you're trying to reach said endings and don't want to lose your progress.

If you're not sure how many times you've cleared the game, you can talk to Holly in the Developer's Room and she will tell you.
