Rockstar says Grand Theft Auto VI can take players up to around 80 hours to complete. In comments reported by outlets, Rockstar North co–studio head Rob Nelson describes a recent playthrough that lasted roughly 80 hours and included the full campaign plus some optional content.
TechRadar frames the figure as reflecting a large scope, describing up to 80 hours to beat, with the implication that this is mainly for the main story duration. Vice similarly reports the ~80-hour estimate, emphasizing that Nelson’s playthrough covers the entire campaign and also contains optional activities. Both sources present the same core timeframe while differing slightly in how they characterize what the 80 hours includes—campaign only versus campaign plus extras.
