- A new report suggests that GTA 6 will offer a 50-hour story with around 100 missions.
- This is significantly more than GTA 5, but almost similar to Red Dead 2’s nearly 50 hours.
- But since side activities are the major part of the series, it will provide much more playtime.
Rockstar Games has gone all out with GTA 6, and it is set to be their biggest scope yet. We know for a fact that the state of Leonida is by far their biggest map yet. However, there have been various reports on how long the game will be.
A new report suggests that the GTA 6 main story will take about 50 hours to complete, with around 100 missions. This story completion time is almost the same as Red Dead 2, and nearly 20 hours more than GTA 5.
Why it matters: Despite the main story being quite long, the franchise is known mostly for exploration and a humongous number of side activities, so fans will easily be spending hundreds of hours on average.

Insider Gaming states that they’ve talked to people who have played the game, and we are looking at around 50 hours to complete the main story. They also state that 100% could take 200 hours, but that’s just an estimate.
In GTA 5, there were a total of around 70 main story missions spanning nearly 35 hours, and the sequel will offer nearly 30 more missions, also adding around 20 hours of playtime, and fans think this justifies its $80 price.
Anyhow, all the speculation is about to turn into fact, as GTA 6 is now just 4 days away. Fans have waited for the moment for years, and nearly 12.5 million US people are planning to take the day off on November 19.
