<p>Other comments are good I just want to add if you are trying to stay "start" a "new round" of a game you are already playing you should probably say something like</p>

<p>重新来一盘
Or 
重新来一次
or
重新来一回 </p>

<p>Depending on the context...</p>

<p>You already know how to say "are you sure you want to" - so I won't bother commenting on that</p>

+1 for the fact that "start a new game" depending on context, usually means "restart" and therefore 重新开始

<p>Yes. Start——its original meaning is "do something from beginning". So “开始” is translated well.</p>

<p>you're right and but perhaps you should use the "restart the game ?" the best mean about your sentences : 你确定,你想开始新游戏吗?</p>

<p>你確定要 开始 新遊戲？would be good if you mean to play another game instead of the one you'd been playing.</p>

<p>你確定要 再玩一次？ is better if you intend to start a new match in the game you'd been playing.</p>

你確定要 开始 新遊戲？would be good if you mean to play another game instead of the one you'd been playing.

你確定要 再玩一次？ is better if you intend to start a new match in the game you'd been playing.
