How Long to Beat Echoes of Wisdom?

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is a remarkable achievement for Nintendo and Grezzo. With this game, they have managed to recreate the feel of many of the "classic" Legend of Zelda games, but with the modern art-style fans will recognize from their previous collaboration, the Link's Awakening remake. On top of that, players are getting to experience a fully playable Zelda for the first time. After more than 40 hours of playtime, it's safe to say Echoes of Wisdom is a complete Zelda experience.

Like all games, players will get varying playtimes based on several variables. Here are the average playtimes for the three major goals in Echoes of Wisdom:

Goal	Average Playtime
Just Main Story	15–20 Hours
All Quests (Main & Side)	20–25 Hours
100% Completion	30+ Hours

Because this is only an average, your playtime may differ drastically from other players. Players who use the higher difficulty setting will likely find themselves on the high end of these averages. And some players will take the time to soak in every detail in Echoes of Wisdom, and their playtimes will be longer still.

How Many Dungeons are in Echoes of Wisdom?

After a noticeable absence from Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, fans will be happy to know that the "classic" Zelda dungeon returns in full force in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. There are seven dungeons in Echoes of Wisdom, with a special dungeon at the end of the game, and three unique mini-dungeons that players will explore through side quests.

Players will find that simply listing the number of dungeons will not accurately paint the whole picture when it comes to content in Echoes of Wisdom. Each dungeon also has at least one pre-dungeon within the game's rifts. Some areas have several. Together, all of these locations add up to a considerable amount of content for players to explore.
