Final Fantasy XV was finally released late last month and, based on the great response from both gamers and critics, it looks like the game was worth waiting for. If you’ve already beaten the game and are getting into the Holiday spirit then you’ll be pleased to learn that a free update next week will add a New Game Plus mode to Final Fantasy XV as well as some seasonal items.

As VideoGamer reports, on Dec. 22, this update will allow “those who have completed the game’s main line story to start a new game with all previous gameplay data intact.” No doubt players will be able to begin a new campaign with all their upgrades and weapons.

The update will also give players access to The Holiday Pack, which will be split into two halves. One half will be free and will include some festive items for Noctis and his friends. The other half will cost a few bucks and contain 10 extra items, though some of them won’t be unlocked until January.

The packs contain the following:

Free Holiday Pack

  • Warrior’s Fanfare – A scroll of sheet music containing a song of jubilation that provides additional AP for earning an A+ in Offense outside of training.
