How Long is Hellblade 2?

In Short
  • Ninja Theory earlier mentioned that Hellblade 2 should take about the same time to finish as Senua's Sacrifice.
  • This is correct as finishing a playthrough of Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 took us about 8.5 hours.
  • If you start hunting for secrets and Totems, this playtime will increase to anywhere from 10 to 14 hours.

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2 (review) is finally out for Xbox and PC gamers to enjoy and get lost in. The long-awaited narrative adventure game by Ninja Theory is heavy on its lore and a dark combination of action and graphical beauty. Amidst all the chaos, however, lies the ever-important question of its length. So, if you’re one of the gamers asking how long Hellblade 2 is, keep reading to know the exact time here!

Before the game launch, Dom Matthews, Ninja Theory studio head, claimed the runtime of Hellblade 2 is “similar in length to the first Hellblade.” This led everyone to assume Hellblade 2 would be somewhere around 8-9 hours. This would exclude the time taken to explore and find the totems and secrets.

Well, after sinking the entirety of my mind into Senua’s Saga, I can finally confirm the above information. All told, it took me 8.5 hours to beat Senua’s Saga: Hellblade 2. While this was mostly restricted to the main story, it did include hunting for a secret or two.

If you skip that too and speedrun your way through the game, it should take you just about 6-7 hours to beat Hellblade 2. Completionist players, however, will definitely take anywhere from 10-14 hours to finish it. Check out the exact times below:
