Stellar Blade marks an interesting shift in direction for Korean developer Shift Up. Before beginning work on the game, they had only shipped a few projects, all of which were on mobile devices. This presents an interesting question: would these developers be able to properly scale their ambitions to a console release, delivering enough content to satisfy players?

PostsIf reviews are anything to go by, they've certainly succeeded. The critical praise might convince you to buy it, but in a landscape where amazing titles are coming out seemingly every week, it's nice to know how long it takes to finish each game. So, how many hours will you be spending with Eve?
How Long Does It Take To Beat Stellar Blade?
According to our friends at HowLongToBeat, a main story playthrough of Stellar Blade will see you rolling credits in just under 20 hours. It's worth noting that this is the playtime averaged by a bunch of user submissions, so you can achieve a faster time than this if you truly speed through the game.
This falls into a great sweet spot for single-player games, not being too quick, but also not being bloated with dozens of copy-and-paste quests. If this is shorter than you would have liked, rest assured the hub city of Xion houses civilians who will gladly give you tasks to complete and extend your playtime.
How Long Does A Complete Playthrough Take?
For those truly entranced with the game's world, it may be worth attempting a 100 percent playthrough. This will more than double the time you put into a standard campaign playthrough, clocking in at around 46 hours. The game also features three endings, so you can experience every story deviation after completing the final portion of the story multiple times.
If that somehow still isn't enough Stellar Blade for you, finishing the game for the first time unlocks New Game Plus, letting you bring your accrued skills with you back to the beginning, so you can do it all over again.
