New Game Plus in Resident Evil Requiem allows players to revisit the game while retaining items and experiences from their first playthrough. To start a New Game Plus, players must initiate a new game using their previous save data, as there is no straightforward New Game Plus mode. Deleting existing saves is necessary to wipe all content, including achievements and rewards, but this limits the ability to start anew without sacrificing progress. In the second playthrough, players can carry over special items and weapons from the first run, accessible from the initial supply box. Leon can access and upgrade his equipment sooner, starting with the tactical tracker, while Grace has access to her unbreakable knife and other unlocked equipment.

A YouTuber named stan616 spent nearly 80 days recreating Marineford from One Piece in Minecraft's Hardcore mode, using over 1,187,773 blocks. Unlike Creative mode, Hardcore mode requires players to mine, harvest, and craft every block, facing threats from aggressive mobs that can lead to complete loss of progress upon death. To aid his project, stan616 used schematics to design blueprints in Creative mode, which were then exported into Hardcore mode. He documented his journey in a 90-minute video, highlighting the risks and challenges he encountered. The completed build is available for purchase on his Patreon for .00.

Final Fantasy VII has received a significant update on Steam, introducing several enhancements: a 3x Speed Mode for faster navigation, a Random Encounter Toggle, a Battle Enhancement Mode that maximizes the Limit gauge and restores HP and MP during battles, and an Autosave Feature. This updated version replaces the 2013 edition on the Steam store, which will no longer be available for purchase. Players who previously owned the 2013 edition will receive the new version for free and retain access to the older version, but save files from the 2013 edition are not compatible with the new release.
