Video Game Duration

About This Chart

This interactive scatter plot compares the time required to beat a video game’s core Main Story against reaching 100% Completion (secrets, achievements, and extra side content) using crowdsourced player data from HowLongToBeat.

While most main campaigns take between 10 and 35 hours to complete, completionist runs spread widely into hundreds of hours. Outliers exceeding 1,000 hours (such as continuous live-service MMOs) are filtered out so typical games are easy to inspect.
