What is how long to beat?

Here's a breakdown of how long it typically takes to beat various types of video games:

• Main Story Completion: This focuses solely on the core narrative and essential quests. The length varies greatly depending on the game's genre and scope. Expect anywhere from 5 hours for a shorter, linear game to 50+ hours for a sprawling RPG. See more about Main%20Story completion times.

• Main + Extras: This includes the main story, plus a decent amount of side content, such as optional quests, exploring the world, and tackling some of the more interesting challenges outside of the critical path. Expect to add 20-50% more time compared to just focusing on the main story. Learn about completing Extras in game.

• Completionist: This is for players who want to see and do everything a game has to offer. This includes all side quests, collectibles, achievements/trophies, and often mastering all the game's systems. Completionist runs can easily take 100+ hours, even for games with relatively short main stories. More information about Completionist runs.

• Genre Matters:

  • RPGs: Typically longer due to extensive stories, character progression, and side content.
  • Action-Adventure: Can vary widely depending on the amount of exploration and optional challenges.
  • Linear Games: Generally shorter, focusing on a tighter, more directed experience. Understand more about Game%20Genres.

• Individual Skill: A player's skill level and familiarity with a particular genre can significantly impact play time. Experienced players will generally complete games faster than newcomers. Consider your Skill%20Level while playing.
