How long is Hogwarts Legacy? Main story length & time to complete

Hogwarts Legacy takes fans on a magical journey through the Wizarding World, but you might wonder with so much to do, how long will it take to see everything? Here’s what you need to know about the length of Hogwarts Legacy’s campaign.

Hogwarts Legacy is set to arrive on Xbox One and PS4 very soon and players are itching to pick their House, sit through classes, and track down fantastic beasts.

But with so much to see, learn, and do in Hogwarts Legacy, players are wondering just how much time it takes to beat the game.

So, here’s everything you need to know about how long it takes to beat Hogwarts Legacy, both when it comes to the main story and side objectives.

How long will it take to beat Hogwarts Legacy?

Hogwarts Legacy’s main campaign will take around 30 to 35 hours to complete but it can easily take up to 70 hours if you are a completionist who wants to cover 100% of the game. To cover every bit of the game, you will need to tick off every sidequest, and collectible along with the main story quests.

Hogwarts Legacy has plenty of optional objectives, such as dueling feats, House-specific quests, secret dungeons to complete, and bosses to fight.

The length of Hogwarts Legacy will also vary depending on the difficulty you choose at the start and how quickly you master its deep combat system. Furthermore, it depends on individual skill and how much you want to cover in-game.

Those looking to breeze through on the easiest setting will likely reach the finish line much sooner than anyone looking to challenge themselves on the hardest difficulty.

Ultimately, the number of hours you get from Hogwarts Legacy will depend on how you choose to play. If you’re here for the story then you could easily be in and out after a few days of gameplay, whereas completionists will have to invest much more time to reach 100%.
