Final Fantasy games are not known for their short length. Most games in the series will take you dozens of hours to complete. So where does FFXVI stack up to this? Here’s how long it takes to beat Final Fantasy XVI.
How Long is Final Fantasy XVI?
Final Fantasy XVI is roughly 30-40 hours for the main quest line. If you choose to do all of the side quests, crafting recipes, and hunts, it can take you closer to 70 hours to complete. The side quests have many cutscenes, story exposition, and more.
On top of that, Final Fantasy mode, the game’s new game plus, is filled with new challenges and more brutal fights for players to experience. You can easily sink another 20/30 hours into that mode alone. Add in the Arcade Mode and other features like Stage Replay, and the game’s total length can keep climbing.
