Moon Studio's Ori and the Will of the Wicks is a gripping adventure, a Metroidvania with a gripping tale of Ori and their journey to find Ku, after their flight through a new forest. It is safe to say that if you liked the story that saw the light of day with the first game then you are sure to have a lot of fun with the Will of the Wisps.
The Blind Forest, the first game in Ori's saga, was a great adventure that spanned from three hours for those looking to speed up the game, to around 10 hours to complete all of the main game content as well as the news. zones introduced in the definitive edition of the game.
Released exactly five years after the release of The Blind Forest, Ori and the Will of the Wicks saw a lot of development time, including a delay from the original release date in 2019. That means the game has a lot of content, no? What is the exact duration of the game?
The length of the experience will always be affected by a number of factors. How quickly players try to get into the game, how difficult the player chooses to play, how much exploration you want to do, and individual skill level will all play a role in how long the game lasts. The game is longer this time around, with the time for the first game on normal difficulty being around 12 to 14 hours.
The game can be completed much faster than that, as indicated by the "Watch the Time" achievement, which requires the game to be completed in under four hours to be completed. However, we wouldn't recommend trying this in the first playthrough for the simple reason that you'll need to know where you're going in order to try and get this achievement. We also recommend that you do it easily to help you progress.
