Unicorn Overlord is a new JRPG that has won a lot of people over with its gameplay and aesthetics. As with any typical JRPG, there is a ton to explore, and there's always something new to unlock, or a quest to pick up as you adventure through each new area.
As you start to sink your teeth into the game, you might be wondering how much time you'll be spending in the four nations surrounding Cornia. Whether you're looking to just focus on the main story, or you'd like to complete all the game has to offer, here's how many hours you'll be spending in Unicorn Overlord.
Unicorn Overlord: 7 Beginner Mistakes To Avoid
Anyone who's jumping into Unicorn Overlord for the very first time should definitely take these tips on board to help out in those first few hours.
How Long to Beat the Main Story of Unicorn Overlord
Depending on your playstyle and how quickly you can get through each stage, the main story of Unicorn Overlord will most likely run about 45 to 50 hours. If you know how to level up quickly, and build some solid team compositions, then it should be a breeze for you.
However, you'll want to keep in mind that some side quests and overworld quests will be required for you to move on in the story, so taking part in a few optional events is unavoidable. Luckily, though, you can skip through cutscenes, so if you'd rather not watch through these side quests, you can keep the story moving.
How Long to Beat Main Story and Extras of Unicorn Overlord
If you're looking to add a bit of extra content to Unicorn Overlord without fully completing the game, you're going to be looking at around 70 hours of gameplay. This would include some of the side quests that aren't required to complete the main story, such as Palevia's Escaped Chickens, which gives you the chance to pick up the Gold Egg item and increase the money you receive from battles. The majority of players will most likely fall in this range of hours, allowing them to get a good chunk of the campaign completed.
