Nels Anderson, who worked as a designer and programmer on Firewatch, told wccftech.com that "one playthrough should take you around five or six hours. Also, there seem to be no current plans to support VR devices like Oculus Rift, HTC Vive or PlayStation VR."
wccftech: How many hours of gameplay do you reckon players will get out of the game, on average?
Nels Anderson: Its pretty hard to say since theres actually quite a lot of off the beaten path areas in the game that players wont have to visit. On average, Id say maybe 5-6 hours ? When I play it, it feels comparable to the length of a trilogy of movies or a TV mini-series.
wccftech: Firewatch seems like a nice fit for VR. Are you considering support for devices like Oculus Rift, HTC Vive and PlayStation VR?
Nels Anderson: We certainly think VR is cool, but given our very small team size, we dont have anything specific planned for VR right now. Getting a game that wasnt built specifically for VR game to really feel good is actually quite challenging, so if we wanted to do something there, well definitely need to roll up our sleeves and dig in.
Firewatch will release on February 9th on PS4 and PC (Windows, Mac & Linux).
