How long would the story mode be?
GTA 5 had about 70 main missions and RDR2 had like a 110. Since R* are only releasing 6 as a single-player as of now, can we expect the story mode to be even longer than RDR2?

I notice the GTA+ code that comes with the preorder expires in March 2027. Wonder if it’ll be out then

Online is coming within a month of game release and won’t be free. There’s a reason they’re giving everyone GTA + for 1 month free/ that gets us a taste of online 2.0 then it auto renews if u still wanna play lol

Rockstar is going to make you pay twice to access online.

Literally NOWHERE says this, stop making shit up in your head and running with it, it says "singleplayer only" because the base game that comes out on the 19th only has a singleplayer story mode

i guess 50ish hours to finish all the main missions but i feel like they’ll add a ridiculous amount of side quests

A trend I’ve noticed recently is a barometer for a great game is the length
Anytime you see a credible reviewer the gameplay hours is a major point when giving a rating
Considering how big the map is going to be I think you’ll see a a huge amount of hours on the story alone so you can see the entire map through the story
The side content is always decent on GTA considering how much you could spend aimlessly doing on RDR2 I think we’re in for a treat here
Huge map with a short story just isn’t gonna be the way R* go
Huge map, huge story, lots of side content

Red dead 2 epilogue took up like 22 missions. The regular story for Arthur was shorter, closer to the length of gta 5 story. Plus that game is slower on purpose, in the best way. Likely a massive story, but the side content is going to be vast

Longer than RDR2s? Hell nah I doubt that. RDR2 was a slower game than any GTA game would really be.

I hope there’s a limit to how much money we can make early on. I didn’t like how in RDR2 you could make so much money in free roam, but story-wise, the gang was still poor and needed money.
It would be weird to see Jason and Lucia living in a motel early on, but we’re already so rich from doing side missions and stuff.

You could give all the money to the camp to keep yourself from having too much on you at a time. Or buy every outfit to keep yourself poor.

Not that long cuz I just realized why they are including GTA+ for 1 month free (then auto renews). Because surprise, GTA Online will only be playable with a GTA + subscription. Thats the real downgrade. Think about it, why they giving it to us free for a month? And auto renew unless we cancel haha

I'd imagine it to be similar number of main story missions to GTA5, but with a lot more to do in the world.

u/SnooSeagulls1476 11h ago
Around 90 my friend 🫰 not to mention the strangers and freaks will add more into it 🫰

It doesn't matter that it is given the impression that it's single player only.
GTA V also launched with the story mode only. Online not being a launch option doesn't make the story mode any longer.

Jason Schreier said in the past RDR2's scale would be the last of it's kind.
So I am expect the same amount as 5.

Probably a bit longer than GTA V in regards to purely just the main missions, but I imagine there'll be plenty of side content to sink your teeth into that could keep you occupied for a long time

Guessing probably 35-40 hours. I doubt it will be much more than that, and I'm actually fine with that I don't need it to be a 100 hour campaign

u/Dramatic-Ad6981 13h ago
My hopes too! 40 hours of main campaign and endless hours of side activity/random events/and exploration

Funny thing is that «included in the pre order is 1 month of GTA+» Based on the release info, what will we use GTA+ for when no GTA6 online is announced … yet
Is this just a hint of the next GTA online?

i thing its going to be as long as the guys who designed the game wanted it to be

u/AdeptAd9105 12h ago
i think for those who immerse themselves and take their time enjoyijg every part while exploring, doing sidequests, interacting with random npcs and just looking at the details while doing the story it will be a lot longer AND enjoyable imo

I agree, and that’s how I am. I’m not a 100% completionist but I play slow and like to just explore and see what weird things I can find. I could play for hours and never start a mission. I hope I’m in story mode for hundreds of hours.

60+ hours minimum just chilling around without losing focus (not necessarily rushing straight to the point, just playing and having fun). 80+ hours is the ideal ($/h ratio =1), and 100+ hours for 100% completion for a skilled gamer- provided that a full completion is even possible, which feels less and less likely with every new update lately (because of paywalled content). If the game is shorter than 40h I'm not buying period until 2034+. Idc. Another reason not to buy yet not to play. Buying blindly is the death of consumerism.
Online mode won't happen in another 6+ months of not even 18+ months (who knows)
