The Completionist: New Game Plus is a spin-off show of The Completionist, in which Jirard vows to re-complete every game reviewed in the first 120 episodes of The Completionist. The series began in October 2017, and will be ongoing until Jirard has recompleted every game featured in the show's original run.
History[]
The show was announced on August 1st, 2017, where Jirard announced that former Completionist co-host Greg Wilmot had threatened legal action against Jirard if all of Jirard's videos featuring Greg were not removed from YouTube. Rather than take it to court, Jirard decided to give in, giving his fans a warning and the chance to download and share the original episodes before deletion.
To compensate for this deletion, Jirard vowed to re-do every single episode that would be removed in a new series, complete with the current style and aesthetic of the show. Jirard began this series in October of 2017 with the game he originally started the show with: Mega Man X.
Episodes of New Game Plus are not made/aired in the same order as the original videos, and Jirard's experiences since the original videos can lead to a game receiving a new final rating, for better or worse. Games that have received remakes or enhanced ports since the original review will often use newer versions in place of the original review's version. In the case of multi-platform games, Jirard aims to complete games on platforms opposite of the original runs, such as playing the Xbox 360 version of a game he previously completed on the PS3 for the original episode.
