How long roughly are the nee Archon Quests?

I wanna do it all in one sitting (peak degeneracy at it's highest) but I want to know how long it is in case it's too long for me and I have to do it across multiple days. Does anyone know the length?

Please no spoilers though, I already have gotten ruined slightly (even though i predicted a similar outcome) and don't wanna get ruined anymore

For the latest ones...? I started around 3:30pm and finished it up around 11pm last night. So about 7 'n half hours. You should be able to finish it in one sitting if you don't have any plans for a day. :3

Youtube says a little over 6 hrs for both acts.

It was 7+ hours for me

Good luck

I'd also estimate between 7 and 8.

Honestly I would recommend taking it in at least two chunks because that's a lot to sit through in one go. Fair warning it keeps going automatically when it switches to the second half of the story rather then how it used to stop and the quest would continue after a few game days. There are auto-save points, so just keep an eye out for the icon top left that lets you leave the quest.

To clarify, the whole thing is inside instance maps rather than the open world version. They separated the entire questline from the normal playable world to avoid any story points that might cause you to not be able to do normal daily activities. So you do have to manually exit the quest if you want a break.

So like after the stab stab scene

I'm so tired of the yapping, i want to sleep. I'm so pissed off at this at this point. Just take me back to the time it took place in open world and I was allowed to leave whenever and not redo half the shit involved and when the dialogues weren't endless with forced auto-start. Gonna do the whole "talk to sand" thing again oh my god, i don't even know how to put my annoyance into words. What a shit way to handle this, even HSR let's you just **LEAVE** while following a character POV.

6-8 hours I would say, took me 7 but I wasnt super fast, also not extra slow, I didnt read all extra bits from books.

For me it took almost 6 hours

DaSpood2026-01-15 12:07

Took me about 4 hours while getting slightly distracted here and there, if you read fast (or don't read) and stay focused it can probably take 3h30 I guess. The quest is great but it's a visual novel, lot of dialogue and not much actual gameplay even for genshin standards.

I have no clue how people get 6 to 8 hours out of these quests unless they read really slowly. It's not that long, and I don't skip dialogues.

Well I take little breaks to get food and then come back sit down. So maybe that added a few minutes all together?? But I don’t skip dialogue so maybe that’s why it took me like 8 hrs

I guess I'll have to spread it over 2 days. Thanks everyone! Man, guess I gotta avoid spoilers for a whole another day

I did it pretty thoroughly, doing stuff not explicitly needed (like reading ALL of the documents on a table, rather than stopping after finding the one I needed, or exploring around areas that expect you to just follow the quest indicators), and it took me about eight or nine hours.

The game's a LITTLE more clear about when breakpoints are available, though; I noticed a "saving" indicator periodically, which I took to mean that I could exit out if I wanted. I did do it in one sitting, though.

you can google the playthrough on youtube and get the time gauge that way - the first part is 3h and the second part is 3h20m i think. i did them over 2 days by closing genshin after the first part ended - it then logged me in out of the quest and i could resume from the beginning of the second part - otherwise there is no proper break until you have 1h left of everything

The first one took me around 4 hours, I was hoping that someone could tell me roughly how long the second one is. Reading the comments, it’s about the same
