How long is Cyberpunk 2077?
Cyberpunk 2077 is a huge open-world RPG that's packed full of content for players to experience over the course of the main game. While you still have the option to rush through the majority of the experience fairly quickly, you will be rewarded for taking part in the optional content and exploring the world to see what it has to offer.
Cyberpunk has a lot of side quests, collectables, cybernetic enhancements, weapons, and levels to earn, and you'll only experience most of this by putting a lot of time in. If you are looking to just play through the game's main story without interacting with much of the side content, Cyberpunk 2077 will take between 25 and 30 hours.
However, the story changes marginally based on your choices throughout, which can also affect the ending state, so if you want to get all the endings (including the Cyberpunk 2077 secret ending) you can easily spend over 100 hours playing across repeat playthroughs.
If you want to take your time in Night City and really explore the depth of what a cyberpunk world looks like, the game can easily run you up to 60 hours, depending on which content you go for.
For completionists looking to finish all quests, find all collectables, earn and all achievements, and tick off any miscellaneous content, expect to put well over 100 hours into your playthrough.

This could be even more if you're more of a completionist, or less if you end up speeding through the DLC's story. Either way, it's likely to be a sizable addition to the game if you haven't played it yet.
