Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is just one of many RPGs in the Super Mario series, and is the fourth Mario RPG overall. As such, you can expect to spend a lot of time with this flat version of the plumber.
In this guide, we’ll go over how long Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door will take you to beat, and how long it’ll take you to achieve full 100% completion.
How long is Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door?
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is one of the longer Mario RPGs and Paper Mario games in general.
A standard playthrough of the game should take you somewhere around 30-35 hours to complete. There’s a prologue plus eight total chapters, so there’s plenty of content here to keep you occupied.
How long does it take to 100% Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door?
If you’re a true completionist and want to see all of the content this game has to offer, then the full experience will take you a little while longer.
More specifically, taking on all of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door’s challenges could take you more than 40 hours. There’s a fair bit of side content available in the game, including the Pianta Parlor, the Trouble Center, and the Pit of 100 Trials which will eat up those extra hours.
How long is the Nintendo Switch remake?
The Nintendo Switch remake is basically the same length — whether you're going for 100% or just want to complete the main story, our playtime was very similar (if a bit shorter) compared to on GameCube.
A couple of shortcuts and a revamped warp pipe room help with that, but there are a couple of post-game bosses that help extend the experience just a bit more.
