A Quiet Place The Road Ahead is another addition to the scary lineup of games this season and players are wondering how long it will take to beat it. The game itself follows a straightforward story with our protagonist, Alex Taylor, as she navigates her way through several locations while evading alien monstrosities.

A Quiet Place The Road Ahead will make players reach the ending relatively quickly compared to other horror games recently released. But if you're wondering how short exactly the game is, let's take a deep dive.

A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead’s Signature Feature Could Change the Horror Genre

A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead is an upcoming first-person survival horror game that adapts the eerie and tense atmosphere of the A Quiet Place film franchise. Set in the same post-apocalyptic world as the films, players navigate a landscape where noise attracts deadly alien creatures known as Death Angels. What makes The Road Ahead stand out is its innovative microphone detection mechanic. Players can opt to connect their microphones, and any noise they make in real life will translate into the game, potentially attracting the lethal Death Angels.

Intense stealth horror in A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead - Checking abandoned tunnel

There are 10 distinct locations in The Quiet Place The Road Ahead that are split across the game, like chapters. Each new location has distinct mechanics with some puzzles to make the journey to reach the National Guard a little more interesting. Here's a breakdown of all the locations players will gradually visit in their playthrough of A Quiet Place The Road Ahead.

  1. The Ranch
  2. Hospital
  3. Forest
  4. Lake House
  5. Campsite
  6. Trainwreck
  7. The Chase (more of a gameplay sequence than a location)
  8. Pump Station
  9. Harbor
  10. Fire Station

For players wondering how long will it take to beat A Quiet Place The Road Ahead, it'll be just under 6–8 hours. The game doesn't let players deviate from the path much and is a pretty linear experience through and through. However, the stealth mechanics, which make it important to travel through map sections without making a sound, can be a bit challenging. Players can definitely spot some Alien: Isolation inspiration at play here.

On top of the base game length, the overall completion time also heavily depends on how much you die to the enemies or explore each location. There are various collectibles to acquire, like documents, toys, and mixtapes which extend A Quiet Place The Road Ahead's length to more than 10 hours.
