How long is Diablo 4? Campaign length & time to beat

Completing the Diablo 4 campaign not only lets you save humanity by defeating Lilith but it is also the way to access end-game features and seasonal content like the Battle Pass. Here’s the time to beat Diablo 4 and a breakdown of the campaign length.

Diablo games have always received appreciation for their well-written campaigns loaded with a ton of content. Due to the diverse character classes, these games are easily replayable and it is common for players to invest hundreds of hours building their dream character.

Diablo 4 follows a similar path as we already know about its extensive open world and five unique classes. You’ll go back to the Sanctuary to stop Lillith from destroying humanity and it is safe to assume that this journey will be long, gruesome, but most importantly, entertaining.

If you want to know how long Diablo 4 is and how much time you’ll need to beat the campaign, we’ve got you covered.

How long to beat Diablo 4 campaign?

The main campaign in Diablo 4 is roughly 35 hours long, which was confirmed by the game’s director Joe Shely and General Manager Rod Fergusson in an interview with GameSpot. There are six acts in the main story in which Act 5 is the longest while Act 4 is the shortest.

It is important to note that the 35-hour length is exclusively for the campaign content, which is just one aspect of the gameplay in the game. Elaborating more on player freedom, Fergusson said:

“You can go anywhere you want within Sanctuary and go do dungeons or go do other things and take on a world boss or go do local events, so you have choice there.”

The developers have clarified that the story in Diablo 4 is non-linear until Act 3, which means that you can choose how to play it out.

Diablo 4 is a live-service game with a seasonal Battle Pass, PvP modes, clans, open-world exploration, dungeons, and several elements that you can explore apart from the story. Therefore, if you’re someone who wants to see everything that the game has to offer, you’ll most likely spend hundreds of hours on it and not just 35.
