Run-and-gun playthrough in 25 hours, strategic players will easily log more than 36 hours.
Deus Ex: Human Revolution is now playable from start to finish and getting worked over by a swarm of play testers. And according to the game's producer, it's taking testers a robust 25 hours, minimum, to complete.
In an interview with PC Gamer UK, Human Revolution Producer David Anfossi said he's pleased with the initial reaction to the depth and length of the game. He added that because of the game's various gameplay options -- including stealth, combat, and tech -- the average playthrough is easily extended for more strategic players.

"So far with them playing about six hours every day, most of them don't complete the game," Anfossi told PC Gamer, noting that the testing team logs six day weeks.
"The ones that are more casual gamers, who are used to more 'corridor, cut-scene, corridor, cut-scene' type of gameplay - they play it that way for a while. Then suddenly, there's this new world that opens to them, and they start getting a bit more creative."
In December publisher Square Enix bumped Human Revolution from a March 8 release to sometime in fiscal 2011 for "further polish." The delay now slots the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC release somewhere between April 2011 and March 2012.
