Yasuhiro Kitao, the producer on Elden Ring, says fans have loads of time ahead of them should they want to finish FromSoftware’s latest action RPG.
During an interview at the Taipei Game Show, Kitao spoke about Elden Ring’s length. Specifically how long the main questline is and how many side quests there are for fans to dig into and explore.
“In terms of the targets set during development, the idea is that the main route should be able to be completed within around 30 hours,” Kitao said. “The game as a whole is quite massive and contains many dozens more hours worth of gameplay, but if we are talking about the main route only, it shouldn’t take much longer than that.”

Kitao also speaks briefly about what it was like working with George R.R. Martin, who recently said Elden Ring looks incredible. An open-world game is new for FromSoftware, and Kitao didn’t mince words about how massive it is.
“I’d say that this is probably the richest and most detailed world we have ever created,” Kitao said. “It’s certainly something to look forward to savoring.”
Kitao’s spoke quite confidently about Elden Ring during the interview, which is interesting considering FromSoftware was intimidated by the Demon’s Souls remake. Back during the Holidays, Elden Ring even won The Game Awards’ most-anticipated title for 2022.
