In an interview with GQ (https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/starfield-todd-howard-interview), Starfield Director and Executive Producer Todd Howard (https://www.destructoid.com/did-someone-actually-make-todd-howard-in-starfield/) confirmed the open-world RPG does, in fact, have a New Game Plus mode.
Unfortunately, no actual details on the mode were provided. However, simple confirmation of the NG+ existing in Starfield is pretty exciting as it would be the first Bethesda Game Studios title to feature the mode. The NewGame Plus mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/33979) added NG+ support for Fallout 4, but otherwise, it has just been a highly requested feature.
According to the interview with GQ (https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/starfield-todd-howard-interview), your skill traits and backstory perks when creating a character adds a unique and exciting twist on New Game Plus and incentivizes continued and repeat play.

Even more content for Starfield with New Game PlusGamescom has given us an idea of how long we can expect to spend in Starfield. Bethesda's Head of Publishing, Pete Hines, even mentioned we could be potentially spending hundreds of hours in a Starfield playthrough (https://old.reddit.com/r/Starfield/comments/15z7961/pete_hines_on_how_big_the_game_is_gamescom/).
I'm very curious about exactly how New Game Plus will work. In an open-world adventure with over 1,000 planets to explore, surely a single playthrough will have plenty of content. I'm excited to see what sort of new features or content will be available by going on the journey again. Either way, now that I know Starfield has a New Game Plus mode, perhaps I won't spend hours going back and forth on the starting traits I choose.
I suppose we'll know soon enough. Starfield releases on September 6 on PC and Xbox Series X|S. It will also be a day-one title on Xbox Game Pass. Players who pre-ordered the Premium Edition will get early access to Starfield on September 1.
