How long to beat

Updated 2026-10-16. Checked 2026-10-16.

There is no official length. Famitsu, in the 14 October 2026 review that scored the game 36/40, said 20–30 hours for the story and about 70 with the extra content. An IGN preview from June guessed 30–40 and 60–80. Those are not the same claim.

I would plan a weekend for the story and a longer month if you want Colosseum leagues, Esper hunts, 26 sanctums, and 30 to 40 side quests the developers mentioned. I have not timed a clear myself.
