Story Speed Run

No Stealth, No Cutscenes, No Distractions, Only Action!

If you want to play like a hardcore guerrilla that has no time to waste, then you can save Yara in about 13 hours.This run means you skip all cutscenes, fast travel literally everywhere, and stealth means nothing to you because who has time to crouch?

Casual Story Run

A Nice Balance of Stealth and Brawn

If you want to focus on saving Yara, but still want to take your time, then you can accomplish this in around 20 hours. This means that you finish all Operation with a decent balance of stealth and action, watch all the cutscenes, enjoy driving or even walking to most locations, and take the time to upgrade your weapons a bit.

Story + Some Side Missions

Save Yara and Do Some Yaran Stories on the Side

If you want to play the game and enjoy a good amount of what the devs worked so hard on, then you can save Yara in about 25 hours depending on how much side content you explore. This means you watch all cutscenes, gather some Amigos, take out military targets and maybe dabble a bit in some collection hunting.

All Missions

Complete Every Mission, Fill and Complete Your Journal

If you want to be the best Yaran out there and help everyone you come across through your mission to free Yara, then that will take you about 30 hours depending on how much of a rush you may be in. This means you complete every mission Yara has for you, take over all the checkpoints, and take out every military target.

100%

Find and do Everything, Literally Everything

Are you guerrilla junkie who bleeds Yaran blood and refuses to quit? Do you want to see and do everything Yara? If so, then it will take you over 40 hours to accomplish this. This means you complete find everything in the collection tab, get every weapon and vehicle, finish every quest, get and level all the Amigos, and just do every possible thing this game has to offer.

Once a guerrilla, always a guerrilla.
