Berry Bury Berry New Game Plus (NG+) Guide
Understand NG+ unlock evidence, save behavior, modifiers, the difference from Rewind, and which achievements benefit from a clean NG+ run.
Finishing an ending does not permanently lock the save. Reloading the existing slot can return you to a point before that ending, while NG+ provides a new run with optional modifiers. The exact unlock threshold is not stated in official patch notes, so this page separates confirmed UI behavior from community reports.
How to unlock NG+
- 1Complete an ending and return to the main menu.
- 2Check whether the NG+ modifiers option is available when starting a new file.
- 3If the option is still missing, reload your original save to continue collecting the remaining endings rather than deleting the slot.
- 4Community reports say all four endings may be required for the full NG+ menu; treat that as secondary evidence until the game or developer states the exact threshold.
Why do I still see my old save after an ending?
That is expected. In a developer-supported Steam reply, a player with the Star Key ending was told to reload Save 0; it resumed from the day the key was obtained so the same file could continue. NG+ is a separate new-run option, not a forced conversion of the old slot.
NG+ vs Rewind
What NG+ modifiers are confirmed?
Officially confirmed
The developer patch notes mention an unlimited-daytime modifier, fixes for that modifier, and a Select All button in the NG+ mods menu.
Community documented
Completion players describe speed, hole-movement, and other convenience modifiers. The exact menu and values should be checked in the current game.
Not assumed here
This guide does not claim that ordinary save progress carries into the new file, or that every platform exposes identical defaults, without a current official statement.
Achievements that benefit from NG+
Sugar Rush
Complete any ending in under one hour. The Steam achievement text explicitly allows NG+ Mods.
Off to a good start!
Earn $9 on the first day. A fresh NG+ attempt gives another controlled Day 1 if it was missed.
Ending cleanup
Use the retained original save for unfinished endings, or start NG+ when you want a clean route with modifiers.
100% planning
Do not assume every collection objective must be repeated in NG+; check the existing save and the 100% route first.
Troubleshooting
The menu changed, but I only see my old save
Reload the old slot to continue before the ending. Look for NG+ when creating a new file rather than expecting the slot itself to be renamed.
NG+ modifiers are not available
Keep the save, complete the remaining endings, return to the main menu, and check again. Do not delete progress based on an unverified threshold.
Unlimited day means I cannot shop
Community reports say the bed interaction remains available; walk to its normal location and use the interaction prompt.
Sugar Rush did not unlock after a Rewind
Use a dedicated NG+ file. The achievement text allows NG+ Mods, while a Rewind inside the ordinary file is not the same run mode.
FAQ
Does an ending erase my save?
No. The documented Star Key case reloads the existing slot from the day the key was obtained, allowing continued play.
Do I need all four endings to unlock NG+?
A recent community report says all four unlock the menu, while a developer reply only says a certain ending is required. Complete remaining endings if the option is absent, but treat the exact threshold as not officially confirmed.
Can I use NG+ modifiers for Sugar Rush?
Yes. The Steam achievement description explicitly says NG+ Mods are allowed.
