The 20 longest-to-finish titles in video gaming history? Completed it mate.
Completing a video game is usually a big time commitment - and often, it's not clear just how much of a commitment until you've actually done it. So if you're on a tight schedule, fitting gaming sessions neatly into the gaps in your life, you need to know roughly how long these games might take.
Here at Liberty Games, we've analysed some of the most popular video games for completion time in hours, so you can schedule some shifts during your lunch break, or after school, or when your partner's just left for an evening poetry seminar. Not only that, but we've also converted the hours into days, just in case you find yourself with a large empty block in your calendar, some pizza delivery discount vouchers, and a gamepad that absolutely must be punished.
So why not set yourself the challenge of completing one of these video games within the same time limit?
Take a look at what games have made the top 20.
The table below shows the top 10 quickest games to complete:
Call of Duty: Black Ops IIII is revealed as the quickest game to complete taking 14 hours and 48 minutes on average, this works out as just over half a day (0.6 days) of solid gaming. The original Call Of Duty: Black Ops comes in second place taking just over two hours longer to complete on average at 16 hours 55 minutes, or 0.7 days. Roblox, Spiderman and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege all make the top 10 with the average completionist taking just over one day.
