The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, the long-awaited sequel to 2017's Zelda: Breath of the Wild, finally arrives this week. Breath of the Wild reinvented the Zelda formula to focus more on exploration and curiosity, which meant your adventure in Hyrule could last for as long as you wished to explore it. Tears of the Kingdom is similarly massive, with a sizable story and tons of side quests, adventures, and secrets to uncover. Here's what you need to know about how long it takes to beat The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom allows a massive amount of freedom in how you approach combat and exploration, which means that play times are bound to differ. Some players will want to explore every inch of a new region and conquer all the Shrines, while others will run straight towards their next story objective. Even for story-focused players, you'll probably need to farm for certain resources or equipment. It will take most players approximately 50 hours to complete its story. Keep in mind, of course, that even that estimate can vary greatly.
