We’ll take you through how long you can expect to spend in Black Myth Wukong based on your playstyle.

Black Myth Wukong length
A standard playthrough of Black Myth Wukong will likely take you around 30-35 hours. This assumes that, as well as completing the main quests and beating the game, that you take some time to explore some of the side content the world has to offer, such as optional bosses, side quests, hidden secrets and more.
If you were to focus entirely on the story, ignoring all side content and beelining to the final boss, you would likely be looking at closer to 25 hours, or even as low as 20 if you’re really efficient with taking down those bosses.
On the flip side, completionists can expect to sink a fair amount of time into Black Myth Wukong. It’s not the grindiest game, so you won’t be spending hundreds of hours to unlock every trophy, but you can certainly expect to spend upwards of 45-50 hours to see everything the world has to offer and snag that platinum. Much of the side content is actually harder than what’s available in the main storyline, which might lead players to spend even more time on it, especially on a first playthrough of the game.
