Library Of Ruina Certified By Guinness As Longest Video Game Story At 113 Hours
ProjectMoon announced on October 27 that Library Of Ruina holds a Guinness World Records title for the video game with the longest campaign or story.
Reporting from 1 source: Automaton.
Why it matters
The record rests on a clear-time figure whose method Guinness does not specify, and HowLongToBeat's 113-hour Main Story entry for Library Of Ruina matches it, so the title measures reported playtime rather than a verified standard.
Key Facts
- ProjectMoon announced on October 27 that Library Of Ruina holds a Guinness World Records title for the video game with the longest campaign or story.
- Guinness certified a playtime of about 113 hours for Library Of Ruina.
- The certified figure is 12 hours more than Persona 5 The Royal, which the record previously treated as the longest.
- Library Of Ruina is available on PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One.
- About 94% of roughly 41,000 Steam user reviews for Library Of Ruina are positive.
The certified playtime is about 113 hours, which the record puts 12 hours above Persona 5 The Royal. The game is available on PC via Steam, Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One.
Guinness does not publish how it calculated the 113 hours. The figure lines up with HowLongToBeat's Main Story average for Library Of Ruina, and the 101-hour Persona 5 The Royal entry matches the 12-hour gap the record describes.
That comparison has limits. HowLongToBeat lists idle games such as NGU Idle at 1591 hours and Melvor Idle at 1394 hours, and the Football Manager series also runs past 113 hours. ProjectMoon's earlier Lobotomy Corporation sits at 58.5 hours on the same site. About 94% of roughly 41,000 Steam user reviews for Library Of Ruina are positive.
