How Long Will it Take You to Beat Poppy Playtime Chapter 4?

Poppy Playtime Kissy Missy (4)

Poppy Playtime Chapter 4 takes a more linear approach to progression compared to the more open-ended gameplay of Chapter 3. The linear progression can also help some players complete Chapter 4 quicker, while more exploration-savvy players will find themselves back-tracking to previous areas, which will add more hours to their completion time.

Here's a look at all the locations players will be exploring in Poppy Playtime Chapter 4 (in order).

  1. Lift Control Room
  2. Toy Graveyard
  3. Prison Cell Blocks
  4. Containment Zone - Yarnby
  5. Prison Utility Zone
  6. Save Haven
  7. Sewers
  8. Waste Water Plant
  9. No Man's Land
  10. Doctor's Domain
  11. Doctor's Headquarters
  12. Foundation
  13. Doey's Boss Pit
  14. Lab's Entrance

All the areas above include some form of puzzle that can be easier for some players, and harder for others. The No Man's Land location in general has Yarnby chasing players around the area, preventing them from completing the puzzles. This area alone can have a great impact on the total runtime of Poppy Playtime Chapter 4, especially considering how Yarnby can bug out and soft-lock progression for some players.

Mob Entertainment has released some major bug fixes post-release which are aimed at fixing Yarnby's overly aggressive/buggy behavior, which can improve players' experience with the game.

In addition to the 20+ puzzles, there are also a lot of collectibles for players to find, which include lore documents, videotapes, and hidden items. This can add some more hours to your total completion time. So, after considering everything above, it will take players anywhere from 3 to 4 hours to beat Poppy Playtime Chapter 4 on average.

For completionists looking to explore every nook and cranny of the game, and find every collectible there is, it can add another 1–2 hours, bringing the total completion time to ~5 hours. Compared to previous chapters, Poppy Playtime Chapter 4 is as long as Chapter 3.
