Resident Evil 3: How Long To Beat?
The original Resident Evil 3 isn't a long game and neither is the remake. Here's how long it takes to beat.
Resident Evil 3 Remake is out, offering another dose of zombie survival-horror in the style of last year's Resident Evil 2 Remake. This time the focus turns to Nemesis, the ever-present danger stalking the streets of Raccoon City to take down surviving STARS officers. The original Resident Evil 3 was not a long game by today's standards--based on an average playthrough, even the Resident Evil 2 Remake isn't that much longer. So how long can you expect to be on the run from Nemesis this time around?
How Long To Beat Resident Evil 3?
- 6 hours (standard run)
- 11 hours (completionist run)
A standard critical path run through RE3 will take you about six hours, while taking your time to gather all the collectibles will last roughly 11-plus hours. That means getting all of the weapon upgrades and secrets, opening all of the locks, and finding all of the bobbleheads.
Resident Evil 3 ships alongside Resident Evil Resistance, a standalone multiplayer mode that pits four survivors against one mastermind controlling the output of zombie hordes.
