Developers give estimates for Armored Core 6’s length

Armored Core 6 will take around 20 hours to beat, at least for a first playthrough, as revealed by Game Director Masaru Yamamura in an interview with GameBase Taiwan that was translated by fans.

With multiple endings however, he also clarified that players could spend closer to 50 – 60 hours in the game, stating “There are multiple endings for replayability, and there is multiplayer after beating the campaign.” This replayability is what must lead to the 50 to 60-hour playthroughs initially suggested.

Content creators like VaatiVidya, FightinCowboy, and Fextralife were all given hands-on previews prior to release and were all given the same numbers. In their hands-on impressions video, Fextralife explained that creators “were told the game would be around 50 to 60 hours long.”
