Since the beginning of last year, the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/alan-wake-2-reviews-round-up\/\">Alan Wake 2<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/resident-evil-4-remake-review\/\">Resident Evil 4 Remake<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/radiotimes.production.wcp.imdserve.com\/technology\/gaming\/dead-space-remake-review\/\">Dead Space Remake<\/a> all scared us witless. But the horror rollercoaster is still charging away as later this month, we have the return of a horror icon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Before the likes of Silent Hill and Resident Evil took the gaming world by storm, Alone in the Dark launched with (for the time) state of the art visuals. Borrowing from influences such as horror writer HP Lovecraft, the game went on to spawn six sequels to varying degrees of quality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Absent for almost a decade, Alone in the Dark is set to return in style on 20th March 2024, with the Hollywood talents of Jodie Comer and David Harbour as the lead roles in the game \u2013 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">and anyone with a nervous disposition that plans on playing Alone in the Dark will want to know how long it takes to beat so they can sleep soundly again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Read on to find out how long the game will take to complete.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How long is Alone in the Dark (2024)? How many hours needed to beat it\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When asked by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/gamingbolt.com\/alone-in-the-dark-each-campaign-is-6-10-hours-long\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">GamingBolt<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, Alone in the Dark\u2019s associate producer Andreas Schmiedecker said the game would take between <\/span><b>six and 10 hours to beat<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The game has two separate campaigns that are told from different perspectives \u2013 one being Comer\u2019s Emily, the other Harbour\u2019s Edward. Each story is set to feature different cutscenes and environments unique to it.<\/span><\/p> <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is a third-person survival horror that utilises an over-the-shoulder perspective for its action, not unlike recent games in the Resident Evil franchise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Schmiedecker added in the interview that for the full experience, he expects players to journey through the game twice, so realistically, we are looking at a run time of <\/span><b>12-20 hours<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> for a full completion.<\/span><\/p>\n<script src=\"https:\/\/cdn.greenvideo.io\/players\/gv.js\" data-license-key=\"f0cf5e3e9068d9a4affa36d5c8962eaf1a0662ba\"\/> <div style=\"width:50%;min-height:100vh;overflow:hidden;aspect-ratio:16\/9;position:relative;\"> <style><![CDATA[ .gvtext1, .gvtext2 { animation-duration: 5s; animation-iteration-count: infinite; animation-direction: alternate; width:100%; } .gvtext1 { animation-name: gvtext1; } .gvtext2 { animation-name: gvtext2; } @keyframes gvtext1 { 0% { opacity: 1 } 47% { opacity: 1 } 50% { opacity: 0 } 100% { opacity: 0 } } @keyframes gvtext2 { 0% { opacity: 0 } 50% { opacity: 0 } 53% { opacity: 1 } 100% { opacity: 1 } } ]]><\/style> <div style=\"font-family:arial;font-size:smaller;position:absolute;height:100%;width:100%;background:rgb(208, 208, 208);border-radius:30px;display:flex;text-align:center;align-items:center;\"> <div class=\"gvtext2\" style=\"position:absolute;\"> Green Video Post Element <br\/>Video ID: \"b5e2ff4e52aef139121f583f238b31cb776c12bb\" <br\/>Mix ID: \"\" <br\/>Player ID: \"Tw3-XowQ\" <\/div> <div class=\"gvtext1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"> If the player doesn't appear here within a few seconds, the Player ID or Licence Key (set via IM Green Video settings) might be invalid. <\/div> <\/div> <green-video embed-id=\"Tw3-XowQ\" content-id=\"b5e2ff4e52aef139121f583f238b31cb776c12bb\" mix-id=\"\"\/>\n<\/div> <p><strong>Listen to our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/technology\/gaming\/one-more-life-podcast\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">One More Life podcast<\/a> and subscribe to our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/gaming-newsletter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">gaming newsletter<\/a> for all the latest intel.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Looking for something to watch?
