How long will it take to complete all trophies in Baldur’s Gate 3
Getting every single achievement in Baldur’s Gate 3 is going to take you around 150 hours, give or take 50. This is no small feat, considering just how large the game is and how many different paths you’ll have to take to get all the achievements and, if you’re on PS5, that Platinum Trophy.
If you know what you’re doing, you could get every single trophy in just a single playthrough, but you’re also required to finish the entire game on the hardest difficulty mode. So you’re in for a challenge.
It may be more feasible to aim for two playthroughs to claim every single BG3 trophy.
