The question of how long to beat Cyberpunk 2077 is a tricky one to answer, because as open-world RPGs often are, it depends on how much of the game you actually want to play. If you're just in it for V and Johnny's story, you can see the credits in as little as 15 hours, give or take, whereas if you fancy uncovering every secret the Cyberpunk 2077 map has to offer, you could well spend 80+ hours earning that 100% completion. We've got everything you need to know regarding how long Cyberpunk 2077 is below with more detail depending on what type of player you are, and what's even better is that it is completely spoiler free.

Playing the DLC? Make sure you check out our guide which answers the same question: how long is Phantom Liberty?

How long is Cyberpunk 2077?

Because this is a very open world game, it's impossible to say the Cyberpunk 2077 length is a specific amount of time, because everyone will play it differently and take on a different range of missions and objetives. However I, and several other members of the GamesRadar team, have completed the game and can give you estimates based on our experiences.

If you only want to play the main missions and absolutely nothing else, you can breeze through the story in about 15-20 hours. You'll miss out on most of the game this way and a lot of important aspects that tie in to the main story as well. You also won't have all the Cyberpunk 2077 ending options available, as several possibilities tie into missions and relationships that are off the main path.

If your intention is to play through the main story, plus most of the important side stuff, you'll be looking at around 45-50 hours. This way, you're not 100%ing the game and clearing every icon off the map, but you will have explored all the major narrative arcs and your decisions will likely determine the ending you'll get.

Finally, if you want to find everything, complete all gigs and side missions, buy all the vehicles and upgrades, and fully max out your character level, you can expect to spend maybe 80-100 hours in Cyberpunk 2077, or potentially more. There is a lot to do so it's not a quick thing to whizz through if you want to do everything.
