Part of the fun in a game such as Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is getting more talented as a player. Upgrades and levels help a little, but the majority of the progression comes from a gamer's own ability to learn the enemies, their moves, and how to counter them.
Because of this, games in the Soulslike genre can sometimes take months to complete in their entirety. Others that want a tighter experience might take just a few hours. Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty falls somewhere in between these two extremes and can take longer or shorter depending on the playstyle gamers employ.
We'd like to give special recognition to our friends at HowLongToBeat.com for tracking and averaging this information.
How Long To Beat Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty
Main Missions | 30 Hours |
Main & Side Missions | 30.5 Hours |
All Achievements | 40 Hours |
Perhaps the most notable thing about these times is that although side missions are a huge chunk of the game, they only add about 30 minutes to the overall time. This is because, even with a fantastic early-game build, skipping the side missions means the character will be weaker. Gamers who skip these missions will be dying more often, so much so that they spend about the same amount of time playing the game as those who play through every mission.
Completing every collection and getting all the achievements doesn't take too much longer, only about another 10 hours. Gamers who invest their virtues wisely will find that they can beat any challenge thrown at them.
If the game proves too difficult, respec the levels and try again. Often, the right build for the player to succeed requires some tinkering. When getting stuck for more than an hour on a boss, take a step back and try a new tactic. Switching tactics to match the enemy's weaknesses can greatly shorten the time it takes to complete the campaign.
Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is available now for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
