ghost of yotei how long to beat

Ghost of Yotei is a fairly long open‑world samurai game, and most players can expect anywhere from about 25 hours to well over 60 hours depending on playstyle.

Main Story Only

  • Focusing almost entirely on the critical path and ignoring most side content is typically:
    • Around 25–30 hours for a direct story run.
  • This assumes:
    • You fast‑travel a lot.
    • You don’t hunt every collectible or clear every camp you see.

Story + Some Side Content

  • A more “normal” playthrough where you:
    • Do side quests that interest you.
    • Upgrade gear a bit.
    • Wander off the path now and then.
  • Expect roughly 35–40 hours , give or take a few depending on difficulty and how thorough you are.

100% / Completionist Runs

  • If you aim for:
    • Every side quest and bounty.
    • All altars, dens, shrines, hot springs, and other map activities.
    • Trophies/achievements and full map clear.
  • You’re looking at roughly 50–65+ hours , with many estimates clustering around 60–65 hours.

Playstyle Impact

  • Stealthy, methodical players or higher‑difficulty runs can push the time up significantly, especially if you clear enemy camps slowly and explore every nook.
  • Speed‑focused players who beeline main quests and skip optional content can shave several hours off the lower end of the estimates.
