How long to beat The Blood of Dawnwalker? It'll vary depending on your actions, as Coen's adventure is literally based around a ticking clock in which you need to defeat an enemy and save the world within 30 in-game days, but that doesn't mean that you necessarily have to use all the time available to you, or that you can't keep playing once that's done. If you want more info, then without spoiling story details, I'll explain how long it takes to beat The Blood of Dawnwalker and what kind of time you have ahead of you.
How long does it take to beat The Blood of Dawnwalker?
The time to beat The Blood of Dawnwalker could be anywhere between 20 and 50 hours, but most players will likely beat it between 30 and 40.
The reason for that is the structuring of the game, which in many ways is somewhat similar to Breath of the Wild. Once you complete the tutorial, you're given a task to complete and 30 in-game days to complete it, but can attempt that task far earlier, depending on your actions. If you're focused and particularly skilled, you can probably complete the final challenge before 7 days have elapsed (one of our team took 9 in-game days to complete it, and that was on his first attempt). For more info, check out our dedicated guide on The Blood of Dawnwalker time system and mechanics.
However, for most players, I would estimate between 30 and 40 hours, which allows for you to experience all the major questlines and some side activities, and progress through most of the in-game timeline. It's also worth mentioning that there is a post-game, and you can continue to play Dawnwalker after the main quest is completed.
