Nobody Saves the World is a new action-RPG from Drinkbox Studios, known for developing and publishing the Guacamelee and its sequel. Their new IP takes a break from the metroidvania platforming and features a top-down perspective with a focus on dungeon crawling.
Drinkbox Studios has made a deal with Xbox to put their new title on Game Pass, so there are a lot of subscribers curious about how long it takes to beat Nobody Saves the World, as well as those who purchased the title to keep.
How Long to Beat Nobody Saves the World
It takes 15-20 hours to complete Nobody Saves the World if players are only interested in completing the critical dungeons. Expect to take 25-30 hours to complete if exploring and completing side quests while progressing through the main story.
Whether rushing to the end, or trying to see everything available, players can team up with a friend and play all of Nobody Saves the World in online multiplayer if they wish. Although co-op partners should be aware that this will raise the difficulty of enemies as well.
Adjusting the enemy difficulty is a similar feature found in other dungeon crawlers, and is done to balance the gameplay in Nobody Saves the World. Depending on how good of a team players form, they could help each other complete the game sooner.
As players progress in Nobody Saves the World, they will come across different randomly generated dungeons. So as the character uses its magic wand to change form and class, so too will the environment when a new dungeon is entered. These dungeons have different properties, however, so if players are finding one particularly hard, that could add to the total time it takes to beat.
Although the action-RPG elements in Nobody Saves the World are different from the mechanics found in those familiar with the Guacamelee games, players shouldn't take too long to get to grips with the new system. One of the more unique aspects of the indie title, however, is its leveling system.
Instead of taking on hordes of enemies to level up, players must instead complete quests to gain skills. These can involve taking out enemies in a variety of ways, but there are also more story-driven missions. How good players are at completing these story and combat skill quests will also determine how long it takes them to beat Nobody Saves the World.
Nobody Saves the World is out now for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
