Luckily for you, we have an answer to that question. Read on to find out whether this title sees you dive into an expansive singular setting or is split up into smaller areas.

Is Scarlet Nexus Open World? Answered

Scarlet Nexus is not an open-world title. Instead, its areas are divided into separate sections, which you’ll need to travel between via a fast travel method in order to explore.

This isn’t to say each area is small though. Most all of them are fairly large, containing a multitude of enemies to defeat, secrets to uncover, and collectibles to obtain for rewards from NPCs. Likewise, each area is diverse enough to keep the game feeling varied. Some are calm, peaceful settings that house friendly NPCs for you to interact with, while others are filled with enemies for you to take on with outlandish combos and attacks.

However, you’ll never be able to seamlessly travel from one area to another, exploring the world without ever having to return to a hub point.

That’s all there is to it, really. It might be a bummer if you’re a big fan of open-world experiences, but there’s still plenty of fun to be found if you’re willing to look past this part of the game.

Hopefully, this cleared up whether or not Scarlet Nexus is open world. For more on the game, check out our guide wiki. It has a plethora of other guides that will help you better understand the game’s mechanics, figure out how to beat bosses, and much more.
