How many hours will it take to beat FF7 Rebirth?

HowLongToBeat has Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth pegged as taking 48 hours to complete for a normal playthrough, 91.5 for the main quest and side missions and 168 hours for a completionist run.

Game Informer instead went straight to the source. After hearing from game director Naoki Hamaguchi at a preview event, the trusted publication's Brian Shea said, "Even just focusing on the main storyline, players can still expect about 40 hours of gameplay."

Game Informer added: "Meanwhile, those who do a good amount of side content should expect approximately a 60-hour playthrough, while the most dedicated sidequesters could top the 100-hour mark for their save file."

Given what we're seeing on HowLongToBeat, this checks out.

For comparison, 2020's Remake part one — on HowLongToBeat — averages 33 hours for the main story and 86 hours for completionists.

Fourteen chapters may look short as a topline stat for Rebirth, but it sounds like this game is still one you can spend a lot of time with!
