Open world

In video games, an open world is a virtual world in which the player can approach objectives freely, as opposed to a world with more linear and structured gameplay. Notable games in this category include Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (2004), The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (2017), Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018), and Minecraft (2011).
