40 - 80 Hours for the Main Story + Side Quests

Dragon

Progressing through the main story while taking on optional side quests should take around 30 to 80 hours. As Fast Travel has been toned down significantly, traversing to all areas to complete quests will take a significant amount of time

Close to 150 Hours for 100% Completion

Dragon

Players aiming for 100% completion, as in completing all quests, obtaining all armor sets and unique weapons, as well as dungeons and other side content, can expect more than 100 hours of play time.

This is due to the massive, sprawling open world and that the game is designed for multiple playthroughs. Players are encouraged to play through the game multiple times as some quests are time sensitive and may lock you out of other quests depending on how they resolve.
