How long to beat Silent Hill f

Games in the Silent Hill series aren’t known for their lengthy runtimes, with most games in the series lasting between 8 and 12 hours. Silent Hill f, the first new game in the series in over a decade, is no different — but it has a few extra wrinkles that will extend your playtime well beyond your first viewing of the credits. 

We’ll break down how long it takes to complete Silent Hill f, including how long it takes for a first playthrough of the game and how long you can expect to take to see everything the game has to offer. 

How long is Silent Hill f? 

Your first playthrough of Silent Hill f will likely take between 10 and 12 hours. This time could be a bit faster if you’re very good at solving puzzles, have action and puzzle difficulty settings set to lower options — or it could be slower if you struggle with the puzzles, explore every single nook and cranny, and have the difficulty settings set to higher options. 

That said, you will likely play through Silent Hill f more than once, thanks to a clever New Game+ setting that sees major changes to the game and its story on subsequent playthroughs. Thankfully, there are plenty of additions in subsequent playthroughs that speed up your time through the story, which can cut subsequent runs through the game down to 8-10 hours, depending on the difficulty. 

How long does it take to 100% Silent Hill f? 

With all of the above in mind, and the multiple endings and scenarios accounted for, we expect that a 100% playthrough of Silent Hill f would take approximately 40-50 hours. This includes seeing every cutscene, fighting every boss and enemy, and getting every alternate ending for the game. It also includes playing through the game on each of the three difficulty settings for both puzzles and action — though these can obviously be knocked out simultaneously.
