Lords of the Fallen, is here and many fans will be wondering what kind of map is featured in the game, and if it will have an open world. Although Lords of the Fallen is set in the same world as last time, we are seeing the world over a thousand years later - plenty has changed since we were last here.

Action role-playing games (RPG) don’t often opt for an open world, but since Elden Ring, we now know that it can be done. So, let’s take a look at whether or not Lords of the Fallen has an open world too, or if the developer has opted for a more linear approach.

Is Lords of the Fallen linear or open world?

Lords of the Fallen hand in the world 

Lords of the Fallen is a semi-open world. You don’t have complete freedom to just do whatever you want from the moment the game begins, but there are plenty of opportunities to explore and hidden paths to follow.

The dual worlds help layer on even more opportunities for exploration because, although it is mirrored, the two worlds will have different paths for you to follow. From everything we have seen so far, this is the case. Some of the sections are much larger than others, and there are plenty of crossroads you will come across as you play. 

That is all there is to know about the world of Lords of the Fallen and if it will have an open world.
