The Sinking City 2 New Game Plus: Ex Oblivione
Confirmed answer: In a verified Frogwares AMA, the studio says Ex-Oblivione is the game's New Game Plus mode and that it contains secrets and lore.
Evidence date: Reviewed August 26, 2026.
How do you unlock Ex Oblivione?
Finish the main story. That completion boundary comes from Frogwares pre-launch press wording preserved by Gematsu, which described New Game Plus as a return to Arkham after completing the main story. The verified AMA separately confirms that Ex-Oblivione is the name of the game's NG+ mode.
This is not a current-build menu audit. The cited material does not document the exact post-credits prompt, clear-save selection, or any platform-specific menu difference in the current build. It supports story completion as the unlock boundary, but no more detailed button sequence.
What does Frogwares say carries over?
The July 29 pre-launch wording says players carry over all their perk points, perks and items to the start of the game. This is useful evidence, but it is still announcement copy preserved by a named outlet rather than a current, item-by-item support article.
Archived wording: Gematsu, July 29, 2026. Gematsu identifies the passage as details supplied with Frogwares' announcement; this page labels it as pre-launch wording, not an independent current-build inventory test.
What changes in Ex Oblivione?
The verified Frogwares AMA directly supports two changes: secrets and lore are available in Ex-Oblivione. Frogwares' pre-launch press wording also mentioned challenges, achievements, and cosmetic and gameplay rewards, but did not define their quantity, placement, or unlock sequence.
The cited sources do not confirm an alternate, secret, or true ending. A user asked about a possible new ending in the AMA thread, but the cited developer answer only identifies Ex-Oblivione as NG+ with secrets and lore. Extra story context should not be presented as a promised ending branch.
For the replay's documented lore route, use the separate all 8 Ex Oblivione documents checklist. For the base campaign's conclusion, use the spoiler-heavy ending explanation.
What does Steam confirm?
Steam's official global page currently lists 23 total achievements and includes the title From Oblivion. Its description is hidden, so that first-party page does not expose the unlock condition and cannot by itself prove a document count or route.
Current platform record: Steam Community global achievements (checked August 26, 2026).
