Rocksteady’s Batman: Arkham City will take 20-24 hours for a normal player to finish, marketing manager Dax Ginn has told GamerZines.
“Our QA guys can straight-line it – so not doing any of the side missions and just sticking to the core narrative path – in about 8 hours,” Ginn said. “If you’re exploring and trying new things, obviously that adds a lot to the experience and the game time. I would say for a normal player who knows their action adventure games, between 20-24 hours.”
Batman: Arkham City is due for release on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC on October 21.
Action games these days tend to come in at under 10 hours, but Arkham City should be significantly longer than that if Rocksteady is to be believed. Developers generally exaggerate their game’s length, but even somewhere in the region of 15 hours of play time for someone who explores would be ample for a game of this type.
