How long to get Platinum Trophy for Final Fantasy 16 estimate

While we don't know for sure as of writing, we estimate that it takes between 70 and 80 hours to get the Platinum Trophy in Final Fantasy 16. A Famitsu interview with the FF16 development team revealed that its story length is around 35 hours, but that completing all of the side content would double that completion time to around 70 hours.

As you need to complete the game at least twice (with one playthrough on the 'Final Fantasy' New Game Plus mode only unlocked after completing the game) and hunt for collectibles amongst a whole bunch of combat challenges, Final Fantasy 16 is one of the lengthier looking Platinum Trophies that we've seen.

Skipping cutscenes and only focusing on unlocking Trophies on your second playthrough can help speed along your Trophy hunt.

However, keep in mind that it could be an even longer journey to the FF16 Platinum if you decide to complete additional content that doesn't unlock Trophies across your two playthroughs.

Good luck earning the Platinum trophy in Final Fantasy 16!
