open-world

Open-world refers to a type of video game design where players have the freedom to explore a large, continuous environment with minimal limitations. Unlike linear games that follow a set path, open-world games allow players to roam freely, undertake various missions, and interact with their surroundings at their own pace. This design creates a more immersive experience, encouraging exploration and discovery. Popular examples include titles like "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" and "Grand Theft Auto." The open-world concept enhances player engagement by offering vast, dynamic environments that can be experienced in multiple ways.
