RELATED: JRPGS That Desperately Need A Reboot

The tactical RPG is currently available on Steam with the possibility of a Switch and Xbox Live port sometime in the future. Symphony of War: The Nephilim Saga should last the average player around 30-40 hours for one playthrough. However, that does not consider that the game is non-linear, offering a different experience every time.

How Long Is Symphony Of War?

According to data compiled by How Long To Beat, Symphony of War: The Nephilim Saga appears to take most players around 34 1/2 hours to complete. The information listed supposedly covers both the main story, the extra content, and a completist’s playthrough.

However, for now, the information doesn’t go into the replayable content and optional Gaiden Quests. Like Tactics Ogre and Ogre Battle, the non-linear nature of Symphony of War will mean that completists will want to play the game at least twice as it offers vastly different experiences. Symphony of War can potentially provide many players with at least 70 hours of gameplay.

The Optional Gaiden Chapters

In addition to the main campaign, Symphony of War: The Nephilim Saga has optional side quest chapters called Gaiden Chapters. These side battles will become available from Chapter 20 onwards. The Gaiden missions are skippable, but one would be missing out on valuable resources, unlockable characters, and more story content.

Chapter A: Unrelenting Ambition Chapter B: Dragon’s Haven Chapter C: No Mercy for the Merciful Chapter D: Clockwork City Chapter E: Ishtar’s Lament

Symphony of War: The Nephilim Saga is a deep tactical RPG that plays like a spiritual successor to Ogre Battle and Langrisser. It is the perfect time-sink for fans waiting for the Tactics Ogre remaster or a potential remaster of Final Fantasy Tactics.

Symphony of War: The Nephilim Saga is available now for the PC via Steam.
