How long does it take to beat Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

My playthrough took place in person about 74 hours to go from the beginning until the credits finished rolling. For context, I have completed all the primary side missions and Chadley World Intel requests. Polygon’s reviewer, who approached the game with a completion mentality before devoting himself to the final chapters 90 hours with it.

I did not I’ve completed a lot of Queen’s Blood matches, and outside of the summons, I haven’t participated much in Chadley’s battle simulator either. Typically, I didn’t do any additional combat challenges (like the Gold Saucer combat missions) or get the highest score on each mini-game. (I’ve covered some of it, but not all.)

That said, if you want to complete the game 100%, you’ll have to spend dozens of hours more than I did. Full completion also requires you to replay certain chapters of the game to progress through things like Gold Saucer dates or Costa del Sol battle partners.

In a interview with GameInformer, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth director Naoki Hamaguchi has said that the game’s main story alone will take around 40 hours to complete. The same interview notes that a playthrough with a “good amount” of side content would last around 60 hours, and completionists could see more than 100 hours.
