The main campaign of Sayonara Wild Hearts is incredibly short, with players able to play through the game’s 23 main stages in around sixty minutes, give or take. They’ll be able to unlock a few additional game modes by completing this popular Annapurna Interactive game once and getting all gold ranks, but there’s also a bit of side content in the form of Zodiac Riddles.
