How long is Little Nightmares 2?

Compared to the first installment in the series, Little Nightmares 2 takes a bit more time. Players can expect to be immersed in the heart-stopping world of nightmares for between five and six hours their first time around.

For those out there that want to discover all of the secrets and collectibles out there, you'll likely find yourself in Little Nightmares 2 for around eight to nine hours. These collectibles are some glitched remains and some wearable hats.

Locating all of the collectibles will net you a total of eight achievements/trophies, so players going for those will end up with that longer playtime. In addition, collecting all of the glitched remains will let you see the true ending, so even those not swayed by sweet, sweet achievements may want to spend some extra time searching every nook and cranny.

For reference, the world record for fastest completion of Little Nightmares 2 is under 70 minutes long, and the fastest 100 percent completion is under two hours. These times result from dozens of hours of learning the game, practice, and routing, so a first-time player can't expect to possibly get close to these playtimes. But, theoretically, these are the minimum possible lengths of the game.
