If you are curious about how long it takes to beat the Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty expansion, we have you covered. Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty is the highly anticipated expansion to one of the biggest RPGs of recent years.

The time to beat Phantom Liberty depends on how quickly you get through the main quest, and how many side missions you do. Here is how long it takes to beat Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty.

How long would it take to beat the main quest in Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty?

If you fly through Phantom Liberty and focus on the main quest, you can beat the expansion's main story in 10-12 hours. This is based on our own experience with the expansion, meaning that your mileage may vary.

Considering that this is the time it takes to power through the main story and nothing else, is a good indictment of the amount of content contained in Phantom Liberty. That is to say, we finished the main story and found that there was still plenty more to do afterward.

By our estimations, it should take you around 4-6 hours to complete all of the side jobs added to the game with Phantom Liberty. The expansion adds a new area and many new characters and factions, meaning there is much to see and explore.

Furthermore, the new location of Dogtown adds plenty to see and do, including new open-world events like cyberpsychos, courier missions, and airdrops.

If you want to go through and complete all of the side missions tied to Phantom Liberty on top of the main story at a reasonable pace, you are likely to spend 15-20 hours in Dogtown.

Completionists will have their hands full, as not only is Phantom Liberty chock full of new content, but the 2.0 update and the fact that Phantom Liberty adds a new ending to the base game means there is a lot more to do to get that 100% completion.

That is it for our breakdown of how long it takes to beat Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty. For more, head to our Cyberpunk homepage, for guides like Cyberpunk 2077 cross-progression and Cyberpunk 2077 vehicle list.
