This was revealed by Saber Interactive, who also talks about the three main modes players will be able to dive into at launch.

• In Campaign mode, lasting approximately 12 hours, you embody Lieutenant Titus, right after the events of the first opus. Titus fights alongside his Battle-Brothers Chairon and Gadriel against swarms of Tyranids and Chaos.
• In Operations mode, you can either play with 2 mates or solo in endlessly replayable PvE action. Face swarms of Tyranids on 6 different maps to defend the Imperium.
• Last but not least, in Eternal War, fight in heated 6v6 matches in 3 different classic game modes: Annihilation, Seize Ground and Capture & Control).

Great. Perfect length for a good weekend. I am kind of tired of 100s of hours of leveling up and finding things.

Edit- To be clear I like my RPGs and long games. But in between some shorter good campaigns are perfect palate cleaners.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

Sounds perfect to me, I just hope it's good!

 

[StueyDuck]

for a linear 3rd person action shooter.

This is perfect.

[amigastar]

Is this a Gears Of War kinda game?

 

[Lagspike_exe]

Is this a Gears Of War kinda game?

Gears of Warhammer.

Does this have co-op?

 

[Dazraell]

Seems like a good length for a campaign in an action game. Still not a fan of the game being 70 dollars at launch though, I will most likely wait when it will get cheaper

 

[The_hunter]

Gears of Warhammer.

Does this have co-op?

Campaign co-op with 3 people, and a separate horde mode.

 

[LegendOfKage]

That seems like a good length.

 

[FinalBossWithTheMostPower]

 

[R6Rider]

I accept.

 

[Skifi28]

Sounds fine, my only worry is if there's too much shooting at endless hordes.

 

[Mobilemofo]

I accept.

I also accept.

 

[Punished Miku]

Gears of Warhammer.

Does this have co-op?

Kinda. Based on World War Z gameplay I think. TPS with an emphasis on lots of enemies on screen at once.

 

[Saber]

Seems fine, I would guess theres optional things to do to extend the gameplay during the campaign if the player wish to.

 

[Esppiral]

Perfect length for (any) game, I am not 15 anymore and can't waste hundreds of hours in a game.

 

[Hrk69]

Way to short for a 59,99 game

 

[Men_in_Boxes]

And the people waited for a sale!

 

[Bartski]

Perfect length. I just hope it’s ready for launch

 

[Chuck Berry]

Works for me. 12 hours in Chuck Time is 15-20 hours easily.

 

[simpatico]

12-16 is really the sweet spot for a nice linear action game. I hope the co-op is tacked on and not what they built the game around (I have no gaming friends).

 

[chromhound]

That seems like a good length.

That's what she said

Please stop with this nonsense lol. This mentality is why the industry is in such dire shape

So if a guy came to entertain your kids for 12 fucking hours at a party, you’d be like “lol 60 bucks is too much, not paying that”

Got it

 

[Roberts]

Knowing me, it will take me at least 15 hours to finish it and it seems to be like a perfect length for this kind of game.

 

[Hrk69]

So if a guy came to entertain your kids for 12 fucking hours at a party, you’d be like “lol 60 bucks is too much, not paying that”

Got it

Correct. I would rather pay 60 bucks to the guy who does it for 100+ hours.

 

[adamsapple]

I was ok with Hellblade 2's ~9 hour length, I am OK with this as well.

Not every game needs to be 50+ hours.

 

[Represent.]

Correct. I would rather pay 60 bucks to the guy who does it for 100+ hours.

So you’re just cheap got it

 

[Hrk69]

So you’re just cheap got it

So I'm cheap because I rather pay 60 bucks for 100+ hours instead of 12.

 

[Represent.]

Yes

If somebody works 12 hours straight for you and you cant pay them 60 bucks theres no other way to put it. Point blank

 

[Hrk69]

Yes

If somebody works 12 hours straight for you and you cant pay them 60 bucks theres no other way to put it. Point blank

Who said I can't pay them 60 bucks? I wrote that I'd rather pay $60 to the guy who works 100 hours. It's obviously the best option from a financial perspective. But I guess you are going to pick the guy who works 12 hours so people can't call you cheap.

12 hours of labor for $60 or 100 hours of labor for $60

Paying for labor and paying for a game are two completely different things and not remotely comparable. But you brought it up.

 

[Agent_4Seven]

Not that I care how long it is, but I think it's a perfect campaign size for a game like this and I'll replay it a ton just like the first game.

 

[MiguelItUp]

Sounds good to me! Especially with co-op and multiplayer.

 

[Polygonal_Sprite]

I was going to play the original before this but they took it off PSN…

 

[GymWolf]

Perfect for the genre if the gameplay is fun and not repetitive.

 

[FinalBossWithTheMostPower]

Honestly, between life and parenting, this is the perfect length.

It will still take me several weeks since I don't have the luxury of cramming 12 hours for a gaming session.

 

[Genesis Knight]

I forgot that Tim Willits is Chief Creative Officer @ Sabre, until he showed up in a Behind the Scenes video:



He's kind of a weird guy (maybe a liar? According to Romero and Carmack...) but he's certainly got experience and he worked on a lot of games I love. He also attended Quakecon religiously for like 20 years.

Seems like a good sign.

 

[BlackTron]

Way to short for a 59,99 game

I agree, it should have way more padding.

 

[Mattdaddy]

Damn I cannot wait for this game!! It looks so damn good.

I dont mind the length if its high quality. I was hoping for 15hrs-ish, so its close.

Plus the multiplayer looks fun, PVP and PVE. I loved the multi from the original. If they stick the landing with it there's going to be a ton of replayability.

 

[Mossybrew]

Seems a bit on the short side to me, but if the other modes are fun that should make up for it.
