On this page of the guide you'll find the answer to the question of how long it takes to complete Lords of the Fallen from 2023. We have prepared information about the length of the main storyline, as well as the requirements to reach 100% game completion and get the platinum trophy.

• Main storyline
• Optional content and platinum trophy

Main storyline

1. Completing the main story and reaching one of the three possible endings of the game should take you about 40 hours on average. This makes Lords of the Fallen one of the longer souls games among those with a more linear world design.
2. The gameplay time is strongly influenced by the player's skills and familiarity with soulslike games. Understanding the mechanics from popular soulslike titles may make some elements easier to understand. Moreover, it's a game in which beginner soulslike players can easily get stuck on most bosses and spend a large amount of time on a particular opponent. The situation isn't made easier by the fact that the game doesn't include traditional difficulty levels.

Optional content and platinum trophy

1. In Lords of the Fallen, you can experience most things while going through the main storyline, although there is no shortage of optional bosses and secret locations, at which you can spend at least a few more hours.
2. Multiplayer fans can be motivated to stay with the game for longer. Possible options include: playing in cooperation or attacking other players in PvP. This is a good way to spend even more hours with the game.
3. The game encourages collecting loot, as it is associated with a number of achievements. This can be a motivating factor for obtaining all weapons and armor components, for instance.
4. The platinum trophy in LotF is difficult because there are, e.g. achievements related to different endings. Individual endings may exclude one another. If you don't resort to using tricks to make copies of your saves, the desire to experience all the endings might compel you to play through the entire game multiple times. This will extend the total gameplay time by several more hours, because even if you are familiar with the bosses and combat tactics, you cannot easily rush through the main plot.
