Millions of players will start their adventure in Leonida with the launch of Grand Theft Auto 6 later this week. They’re currently preparing themselves and completing the games they’ve left unfinished so they can dedicate all of their time to GTA 6 soon — especially gamers who have asked for time off from work to play it. But the question on many players’ minds is how much time they will need to finish the story and 100% complete it.
As it turns out, a week off from work might not be enough. After gathering information from various people who’ve played the game, Insider Gaming has reported that it should take around 50 hours to get through Grand Theft Auto 6‘s campaign. The story is reportedly spread across five chapters and consists of nearly 100 missions.
Animal scanning and RNG may rank up GTA 6 100% completion time to 200 hours
Besides the main story, players can go for GTA 6‘s Platinum Trophy or the Mythic achievement. However, according to Insider Gaming, that should push their total playtime to at least 200 hours. Besides earning a gold medal on story missions, it’s expected that players will have to study all 170 animal species, just like in Red Dead Redemption 2. Additionally, Henderson believes that there will be certain trophies that will depend on RNG — likely related to the casino and gambling. So, are you ready to spend hours at the slot machines?
According to one unconfirmed report, GTA 6 will have 55 achievements for players to complete.
As shown in several interviews, teasers, and the extended trailer, there’s plenty of side content and optional exploration you can do — even if it’s just grabbing a bite to eat, looking at the intricate cloud system, or taking the bus until the end of the line. Therefore, we can conclude that besides the main story and the completionist trophies, players will likely spend far more than 200 hours in Vice City and greater Leonida.
Grand Theft Auto 6 will be released on Nov. 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.
