Creative director Jonathan Dumont has shed light on the time commitment for the upcoming Assassin's Creed Shadows. In a revealing interview with journalist Genki, Dumont stated that completing the core narrative will take players roughly 30 to 40 hours. For those eager to delve into all the optional content, an additional 30 to 40 hours can be expected, pushing the total playtime to around 80 hours. This clarity helps fans plan their gaming schedules and set expectations for this eagerly anticipated title.
Previously, Dumont had likened Shadows to earlier entries like Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla. However, these games have varied significantly in length, making direct comparisons challenging. Acknowledging this, Dumont refined his statement, emphasizing that Shadows aligns more closely with the scope of Origins. According to How Long To Beat, completing the main campaign of Origins takes about 30 hours, while a complete playthrough can extend to 80 hours.

For fans worried about excessively long gameplay, Shadows seems to strike a better balance. In contrast, Valhalla has been criticized for its demanding 60-hour main story and a staggering potential of 150 hours when including all content. If Dumont’s projections hold true, Shadows promises a more digestible yet rewarding experience.
Mark your calendars—Assassin's Creed Shadows is set to release on March 20th for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. Get ready to immerse yourself in this thrilling new chapter of the Assassin's Creed saga.
