How long is the Destiny 2: Lightfall campaign?

While gamers are always keen to play new content, there are still only 24 hours in a day, and that begs the question - how many evenings are we going to need to give up to get through all of the new content that Destiny 2: Lightfall has to offer?

Lightfall campaign length

In total, there are eight new main missions in the campaign. If you're curious, here is the full Destiny 2: Lightfall campaign mission list.

Of course, there are more than just main missions to enjoy in the newest Destiny 2 expansion. During your journey, you will have the opportunity to complete side quests and take on additional activities with your Fireteam.

However, if it's just the main missions that you'd like to smash through at the start of your playthrough, you'll have eight of them to complete.

How long would it take to beat Lightfall?

In total, you can expect to spend around 5-8 hours playing the campaign. However, this will differ dramatically depending on the difficulty you choose to play on.

In a throwback to the old Halo days, Legendary difficulty makes a return with Destiny 2: Lightfall. This gruelling way to play will likely take you much longer to conquer, so be sure to set around a good 12 hours to bash out the campaign if you prefer harder difficulties.
