Rockstar is sharing a lot of information, and Rob Nelson, co-studio head at Rockstar North, has now revealed how long GTA 6 will take on average, not counting, of course, any additional playthroughs after the first.
Ideally, Rockstar Games has estimated around 80 hours of gameplay for a typical playthrough focused on the story and some side activities.
GTA 6 Could Take Around 80 Hours to Complete
The estimate is based on the average length of playthroughs by Nelson himself and other members of the staff. In any case, it is pointed out that the length of the game will vary, even by a lot, depending on how individual players choose to play and whether or not they want to explore Leonida from one end to the other.
Nelson said, “I hope that there will be people that want to get up, have a cup of coffee, shower, get dressed, go out for a little exercise, interact with some people, explore, maybe get into some trouble, rob some places, make some money.”
It also seems that some side activities could have story branches that influence the main story, although it is not clear whether there will be multiple endings depending on the choices made by players.
In other news, GTA 6 will feature well over 600,000 unique animations, more than twice Red Dead Redemption 2 and over ten times as many as GTA 5. In addition, GTA 6 could feature some of the most impressive graphics ever, with advanced lighting, realistic characters and a stable 30 fps.
