How Long Bayonetta 3 Is

Our first playthrough of Bayonetta 3 took around 12 hours. We played through the game on Standard difficulty, and cleared all of the main story missions.

That said, this runtime doesn’t include any of the extra mini-games or Remnant Chapters that you can unlock outside of the main story. There are plenty of little hidden items to collect in the game, along with optional boss fights to unlock, so your playtime can absolutely go way higher than 12 hours if you’re planning on checking everything out.
