How long does Splatoon 3’s Return of the Mammalians single player take to beat?

In general, Splatoon 3: Return of the Mammalians should take you somewhere between five and six hours to beat. It is not a particularly long campaign to beat and the game allows you to skip levels with the right number of Power Eggs. If you are rushing and skipping through the game, you could potentially finish it closer to the four-hour mark.
