"Assassin's Creed Shadows: Full Completion Estimated at 80 Hours"

Creative director Jonathan Dumont has provided an exciting update on the anticipated playtime for Assassin's Creed Shadows. In a recent interview with journalist Genki, Dumont disclosed that completing the core narrative of Shadows will take players approximately 30 to 40 hours. For those eager to dive deeper into the game's world, exploring all the optional content could extend the playtime by an additional 30 to 40 hours, leading to a total of about 80 hours of immersive gameplay.

This detailed insight helps fans gauge their time commitment, offering a clearer picture than previous comparisons Dumont had made to earlier titles like Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla. While these games vary greatly in length, Dumont clarified that Shadows aligns more closely with the scope of Origins. According to How Long To Beat, completing the main campaign of Origins takes around 30 hours, with a full completion requiring upwards of 80 hours.

For players who have felt overwhelmed by the extensive playtime of games like Valhalla, which demands a 60-hour main story and can extend to 150 hours with all content, Shadows promises a more balanced yet equally rewarding experience. If Dumont's estimates hold true, players can look forward to a well-paced adventure that respects their time while delivering the depth and richness Assassin's Creed fans love.

Assassin's Creed Shadows is set to launch on March 20th, available on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. Mark your calendars for what could be a thrilling addition to the Assassin's Creed series.
