As you can see, there are 50 chapters in Final Fantasy 16 overall, so you will have quite a few to work your way through. However, some of the MSQs will be separated into subsections of an overarching main quest, so it can seem like you're doing a few more than you might expect.

If you think there are a lot of main quests in Final Fantasy 16, then the side quests are sure to take you by surprise too. The sheer quantity on offer here is amazing, and the side quests will appear as you progress through the main story.

The side quests are marked by having either a green circle with a lighter exclamation mark or by having a plus in them. The plus sign signals that you can expect some kind of upgrade at the end of the mission.

How long is Final Fantasy 16?

For those wondering how long it takes to beat Final Fantasy 16, the main story should take you roughly 35-40 hours. Our playtime clocked in at around 41 hours, and we did all of the 'plus symbol' side quests, a few hunts, and a handful of standard side quests. So, you can expect your playtime to be longer or slightly shorter depending on how much additional content you take part in.

This is roughly around the average completion time for a game within the Final Fantasy series, as most of the entries outside of maybe Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy XIII will take you between 35 and 45 hours to complete.

So, that should clear up any questions you might have about the length of Final Fantasy 16, giving you a full list of the MSQs so you can see how far away from the finish line you are too.
