Start a new game on xbox

I just got the game a few days ago. The day the Jan update came out.
With new games, especially stealth games, I like to play for about ten to fifteen minutes to get familiar with the controls and with environmental factors like, if swimming is possible, is there fall damage, etc. Then I’ll start a new game. I thought creating a new character meant a new game, but no.

I’ve looked on the web and in the forum. What I’ve determined from the info I’ve found, to start a new game, you have to uninstall the game itself and reinstall?

Is this the only option? And will this put it back like just out of the box…all locations not found, all loot boxes filled again?

I’ve tried going offline, then deleting the save file for my profile. Xbox won’t let me start the game offline. Says it needs internet connection to start. When I started back up, my character was still there, I’m assuming from the cloud save.

If I delete my save file and the cloud save would that work? Put everything back at the beginning?

Thanks for the help!
