Rough day at school or work? There’s only one way to unwind: switch on your console and escape to a world – an open world – full of wonder and excitement. Whether it’s ancient ruins, dense cities or uncharted star systems, video games allow us to dive headlong into all of them.
The concept of open-world games is simple: you can do what you want (mostly) when you want (mostly). They don’t have trad level structures, and the gameplay isn’t linear or structured in the same way a platformer is (though there are storylines to follow, of course). You decide what’s mostare bound by rules, because that’s just the way life is.
