The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is finally available on Nintendo Switch and is already a massive hit. As the follow-up to Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom is much bigger. Hyrule has changed significantly with new Sky Islands and the perilous Depths to explore. There is tons of optional content, including Shrines, side missions, and much more before finishing the story.
How Long to Beat The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom?
However, even for those only interested in the main quest, there is much to experience. It takes about 50 hours on average, which can balloon to over 60 hours by taking your time. Pursuing some of the side content increases that number even further, and it can take about 70 hours for the average player. Again that number varies, and given the number of distractions and secrets in Hyrule, it could easily take about 85 to 90 hours in addition to the main quest.
