CD Projekt Red release more info about The Witcher 3's NG+ DLC

A forum post by CD Projekt Red's Marcin Momot gives some additional details as to the working of The Witcher 3's upcoming and much requested New Games+ mode.

The player's experience points will be transferred across, although players below level 30 will bumped to that level on started NG+. Items will also make the jump, but not quest items, books, letters, usable items, trophies or—tragically—Gwent cards. Money and alchemy recipes will be carried across.

When you start NG+, Momot reveals, you'll be able to select any difficulty level. You'll also be able to obtain the Death March achievement in NG+ mode.
