How to Delete Monika Character File in DDLC Plus

In the original Doki Doki Literature Club on PC, the MC (that’s you) had to delete Monika’s character file like she did all of the three other Dokis in order to break free from eternal grasp in an attempt to set things back to some level of normalcy. Previously, you had to literally go into your game’s files and actually trash the file Monika.chr file.

Obviously, you’re playing on a console now and don’t have access to a desktop… except you kind of do via DDLC Plus’s in-game desktop.

To delete Monika’s character file, exit to the in-game desktop, and then go to Files. In that space, you’ll find the Characters folder and in there you’ll see Monika’s .chr file.

You can’t open it this time, but if you press X on Switch, Y on Xbox, and Triangle on PlayStation, you’ll have the option to delete it.

Confirm that this is what you want to do and then return to DDLC by launching it again from the in-game desktop. Continue your game and the story will proceed from here.

If you are doing this prior to the events of the end of DDLC, you’ll see a little something different than usual. We won’t spoil that for you.

That’s all you need to know for how to delete Monika’s character file in DDLC Plus on consoles, Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox. Hopefully, that helped, and enjoy the end of the game. Also check out our fully-scored review as well for our thoughts on the game as a whole.
