Role-Playing Games (RPGs) are a genre of video games where players assume the roles of characters in a fictional world. These games emphasize story-driven gameplay, character development, and immersive world-building. Players often customize their characters’ abilities, skills, and appearance, and make choices that influence the game’s narrative and outcomes. RPGs feature elements like questing, exploration, and combat, with mechanics including leveling up, acquiring loot, and forming parties. The genre includes sub-genres such as action RPGs, turn-based RPGs, and massively multiplayer online RPGs (MMORPGs). Popular examples include franchises like “The Elder Scrolls,” “Final Fantasy,” “The Witcher,” and “Mass Effect.”
