After years of setbacks and controversy, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is finally upon us, but just how long is the new Rocksteady title? From a main story run to a full completionist playthrough, here’s what you can expect.

Formally announced all the way back in 2020, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League certainly had a turbulent road to launch. From early gameplay criticism to major delays, and a rocky release with critical bugs right out of the gate, it hasn’t all been smooth sailing.

But now that the latest DC video game is finally upon us, just how big is the Suicide Squad game? While the Arkham titles before them offered plenty of bang for your back, how does the 2024 release stack up?

From a straight run through the game’s storyline to a more in-depth completionist playthrough, here’s what you can expect from the game’s length.

How long is Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League? Main story run

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is reportedly clocking in at roughly 10 hours for those beelining the game’s story. While we at Dexerto are yet to finish the game ourselves, and thus unable to verify just yet, multiple players have aligned on the matter.

IGN’s Destin Legarie was among the first to claim the mainline path takes roughly 9-10 hours, before hundreds more chimed in on Reddit. For some, this runtime appears to be rushed, for those jumping from one story mission to the next without soaking up anything else.

So if you take a more measured approach and enjoy the story at a reasonable pace, you should be able to expect a slightly longer main story in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

How long is Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League? Completionist run

Currently, it’s unclear just how long a completionist run might take in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Due to the nature of it being a live service title, with plenty more content always just around the corner, this number is ever-changing.

As it stands with the base game, you’re likely looking at anywhere from 20-30 hours to tick off most of the game’s content. Though for real grinders trying to reach max level on all characters and farm all the best endgame gear, that time could possibly double or triple.

We’ll be sure to update you here as we get further into the grind ourselves, and as the community tackles much of the optional side-content on offer in the base game.
