Bethesda has revealed that upcoming stealth-action romp Dishonored will take ‘very direct players’ around 12-14 hours to complete.
However, those of you who are a little more thorough with the game will find their quest pushing the 25 hour mark.
Writing on the Bethesda Blog, co-creative directors Harvey Smith and Raphael Colantonio said, “Play-style matters a lot. Very direct players will probably get through the game in 12 or 14 hours. Explorers who eavesdrop will take twice as long.”
Elsewhere, the duo revealed that Dishonored packs six major powers and four enhancements, plus various gadgets and weapons including 40 bone charms, the latter of which grant supernatural perks.
“But no one can have all of these things in one playthrough,” said the pair.
As for the mana, the developers added: "A small portion of the mana bar regens; just enough to use powers like Blink and Dark Vision, making them basically free," the pair wrote. "Beyond that, for the expensive powers like Possession or Bend Time, the player must rely on Piero’s Spiritual Remedy (mana potions)."
Dishonored is scheduled for release on PlayStation 3, PC and Xbox 360 in October 2012.
