How long is Alone in the Dark (2024)? How many hours needed to beat it
Has there ever been a better time to be a fan of survival horror games? Since the beginning of last year, the likes of Alan Wake 2, Resident Evil 4 Remake and Dead Space Remake all scared us witless. But the horror rollercoaster is still charging away as later this month, we have the return of a horror icon.
Before the likes of Silent Hill and Resident Evil took the gaming world by storm, Alone in the Dark launched with (for the time) state of the art visuals. Borrowing from influences such as horror writer HP Lovecraft, the game went on to spawn six sequels to varying degrees of quality.
Absent for almost a decade, Alone in the Dark is set to return in style on 20th March 2024, with the Hollywood talents of Jodie Comer and David Harbour as the lead roles in the game – and anyone with a nervous disposition that plans on playing Alone in the Dark will want to know how long it takes to beat so they can sleep soundly again.
Read on to find out how long the game will take to complete.
When asked by GamingBolt, Alone in the Dark’s associate producer Andreas Schmiedecker said the game would take between six and 10 hours to beat.
The game has two separate campaigns that are told from different perspectives – one being Comer’s Emily, the other Harbour’s Edward. Each story is set to feature different cutscenes and environments unique to it.

It is a third-person survival horror that utilises an over-the-shoulder perspective for its action, not unlike recent games in the Resident Evil franchise.
Schmiedecker added in the interview that for the full experience, he expects players to journey through the game twice, so realistically, we are looking at a run time of 12-20 hours for a full completion.
