Find out how many chapters are in Forspoken

If you've just started Square Enix's latest open-world adventure, you may be wondering to yourself, how many chapters are in Forspoken.

Warning: there are mild spoilers for the game's ending ahead, so make sure to read on with caution.

How many chapters does Forspoken have?

However, if you choose the good ending, you'll be presented with an epic final chapter to close out Frey's story. There's even a hint that we could see a second Forspoken game, although we're not sure if that's likely given the game's lukewarm reception.

How long does it take to beat the game?

If you mainline the main story of Forspoken, you should be looking at around 14.5 hours to finish what it has to offer. That's just over an hour per chapter.

However, if you want to complete all of the side quests in addition to the main story, your playthrough is likely to be closer to the 20-hour mark. Collectible hunters will be playing for around 26 hours to find everything. All-in-all, that's a relatively modest runtime for an open-world adventure these days.
