How long is Starfield? It's the question everyone embarking on this space journey into the unknown will be wondering because as we all know, there's usually enough content in a Bethesda RPG to keep players occupied years after release.

Starfield length explained

From our experience, if you only focus on the main storyline, you could finish Starfield in as little as 12-15 hours. However, it's a Bethesda game, so it's massive, and tackling the side quests, faction quests, and other miscellaneous missions could take you well over the 50-hour mark.

Of course, most players don't beeline straight through the main story in a hurry to reach the end, but this offers a decent idea of how long Starfield is at a minimum.

Todd Howard has explained that the team at Bethesda Game Studios is aware that players stick with their games for years on end – Skyrim still has a bustling, active player base, so Starfield has plenty of extra content. Not to mention the best Starfield ships guide will help you explore space with ease.
