Run 3: New Game+ on Village of Shadows

New Game+ on the hardest difficulty: Timber in the opening attack, the story again for the Village of Shadows trophies, then one reloaded save for the last recipes and weapon parts.

Run 3 plays the story again on Village of Shadows, the hardest difficulty, which opens once the story has been finished. It is for three things: Timber in the opening lycan attack, the Village of Shadows clear (Universe's Best Dad, with World's Best Dad alongside), and after the credits a reload of a late save from this run for the last recipes and weapon parts. Keys, puzzles, doors and collectible spots match run 1, so the story is four rows that send you back to run 1's sections and name only what changes; a handful of ammo and material spots differ, and supplies aren't listed. Enemies have more health, hit harder, come in larger numbers and drop much more Lei. The typewriters stand where they did in run 1, but the game's own checkpoints may be fewer: save by hand often, in a fresh slot each time.

Infinite-ammo prep: fully upgrade the S.T.A.K.E., buy its infinite ammo, reload; buy Dragoon infinite ammoQuest stepNG+2
Location
The Village · Altar – The Lei comes from banking: in run 1 buy only cases and recipes, and in run 2 sell every treasure and spend no more than 10,000. After the run 2 credits, load your last run 2 save at the Altar, before the final fight, sell spare treasures and weapons, have the Duke sell you the S.T.A.K.E. and save in a new slot. Buy both its parts and every Gunsmithy upgrade, save in a second slot, quit to the main menu and buy its infinite ammo in the Extra Content Shop (120,000 CP), then load the first slot: the Lei for the parts and upgrades is back, and the plain gun still fires without end. The Dragoon (30,000 CP in the shop, collected from the Duke) has no upgrades, so its infinite ammo (50,000 CP) is on sale as soon as you own it. Then win the final fight again and accept the completed-story save, so this run starts with the S.T.A.K.E. in your case. That is 200,000 CP in all; the four run 2 trophies' challenges and The Mercenaries' challenges add CP if you are short. If the Lei still falls short, start run 3 with the Dragoon and the grenade launcher on infinite ammo (both need no upgrades) and do the same trick at any Duke later in run 3, where enemies drop far more Lei.
Requires
Summary
Unlimited S.T.A.K.E. rounds: the magnum the Duke sells only in New Game+, without keeping its full upgrade. The weapon this run is planned around: it needs about 2.1 million Lei on hand, of which the 300,000 for the gun stays spent.

Start New Game+ on Village of Shadows from the completed saveQuest stepNG+2
Location
Main Menu · Load Game – From the main menu, open Load Game and pick your newest completed-story save, then choose Village of Shadows as the difficulty; only a completed-story save carries your gear into the new run. If you bought infinite ammo, switch it on under Options, Game Settings: it doesn't block trophies.

Summary
There is no New Game+ menu entry: loading a completed-story save is how it begins.

Stay on Village of Shadows

After a few deaths the game may offer an easier difficulty. Turn it down every time: this run's trophy wants Village of Shadows from start to finish. From the game-over screen you can also go straight to the Duke for healing items.

Village of Shadows: the opening attack

The first lycan you meet after picking up the knife and handgun hits very hard: guard at once or shoot it down fast. In the big attack that follows, the two-storey house where run 1's shotgun lay is a good place to hold out, shooting whatever comes through the door until the attack ends with a scene. For Timber the hammer lycan has to fall before that scene, so the house is the fallback once he is down.

TimberHidden spoiler – activate to revealAchievementNG+2Minor spoiler
Location
The Village · East Old Town – The attack is run 1's, in East Old Town (section 01). Late in it Uriaș, the giant lycan with the hammer, joins, and he must die before the scene that ends the attack; on this difficulty he has far more health. Keep the infinite-ammo S.T.A.K.E. on him from the moment he arrives; without it, use the grenade launcher, or the shotgun as he walks past the red barrels. No typewriter comes before the attack, so if the scene plays first, load the completed-story save and start the run again. If you begin without the S.T.A.K.E., take Timber first on a throwaway New Game+ start on Casual with the grenade launcher, quit once he is down, then begin this run.

Trophy for killing Uriaș during the first lycan attack.

Village of Shadows: the lady of the castle

When she chases you through the dungeon, one more enemy waits down there: don't get caught between the two. In the fight on the castle roof she is faster and tougher; when the swarm of insects comes, stand inside the small watchtower on the roof.

Village of Shadows: the Stronghold

More lycans fill the Stronghold, a second large one among them on the Main Hall's upper floor; mines and pipe bombs help. The giant at the end calls more lycans in during the fight, and this is where the grenade launcher stops being enough: switch to the S.T.A.K.E.

Village of Shadows: the burning village

The stretch through the burning village after the factory is the hardest of the run, and your strongest infinite-ammo gun (the Dragoon) is the one for it. Guard while you run to the house you have to mark, and call the strikes from the ladder behind the house with the red chimney. Before you drop into the cave, take the healing items there; flash grenades buy time for each Target Locator charge against the giant below.

Location
The River · Beyond the Ceremony Site – From the factory's Back Yard, play the rest of run 1's section 11: the burning village, the giant under it, the lab, the last stop at the Altar and the final fight. At the Altar, save in a slot of its own before you squeeze through: the steps after the credits load it. The final fight has far more health, its spider-like form is the dangerous one, and guarding does little on this difficulty, so carry plenty of healing. After the credits, accept the completed-story save again.

About this guide

Three runs of the main game: a full run for every collectible, a fast New Game+ run on Casual with only the knife, few healing items and little Lei spent, then New Game+ on Village of Shadows with the bonus weapons. The Mercenaries opens after the first credits. Shadows of Rose is a separate story from the main menu, played once on Hardcore. Each domain closes behind you as the story moves on, and the whole village closes before the last stretch, so take everything before each point of no return.
