Do Riddler Trophies carry over into New Game Plus on Batman: Arkham City?

Question

I'm a bit unclear if the Riddler trophies I've found so far will roll over into a New Game Plus. The menu option to start New Game Plus only states that gadgets and upgrades will go with you.

I'm about 250 trophies in, so don't want to lose them all I've found so far, but I'd like to get started on the New Game Plus if I can. There's also no way to make a copy of the save game I have on the Xbox 360, so I can't really experiment with this.

Answer

Riddler trophies do carry over. According to the description of the Twice Nightly achievement in the achievement guide at Xbox360Achievements.org:

To 100% the game you will need the following done:

  • Complete the story on Normal or Hard AND New Game +
  • Complete all side-missions on BOTH playthroughs
  • Complete all riddler collectibles (data is shared on both save files)
  • Complete all upgrades through leveling up and collecting (also shared)
  • Complete all Riddler's Revenge challenges (as Batman)

I also believe that starting New Game+ does not prevent you from playing the first playthrough at the same time. I haven't done this yet, however given that there are two items in the menu (one or the normal game, another for New Game+) starting one doesn't stop the other.
