The demo of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth was launched by Square Enix at the Tokyo Game Show in Chiba, Japan. This gave gamers the first opportunity to experience, the highly anticipated follow-up to 2020’s FF7 Remake. With Rebirth being the second in the Final Fantasy 7 remake trilogy, fans are starting to ask questions about the game.

The main question that surfaces when a new game is launched is, how long will it take to beat? On that note, fans were curious to know how long it would take to finish the story mode of FF7 Rebirth. While the game is still in production, this question was answered by the producer and director during an interview with BBC Newsbeat.

Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth promises players a 40-hour story at least

BBC Newsbeat interviewed producer Yoshinori Kitase and director Naoki Hamaguchi for insights into the game. During the interview, the creators mentioned that the game’s story would reach a significant climax in the Forgotten Capital, promising a big and surprising development. While there might be a cliffhanger, they emphasized that the second part of the trilogy would not disappoint.

The devs went on to add that the main story alone is expected to take players 40 to 50 hours to complete. Players looking to complete all additional side content and explore the map might even take over 100 hours. Similar to Final Fantasy 16, FF7 Rebirth will have a substantial open-world area.
