The scientific expedition has been ongoing for some time now in Expeditions: A MudRunner Game, but players continue to ask questions about the game. One of the most commonly asked questions is about the game’s maps, with potential convoy leaders wondering if Expeditions: A MudRunner Game is open world.
Traversing the wilderness
Expeditions: A MudRunner Game boasts a truly diverse landscape. Ranging from luscious forests to arid deserts and even rocky mountains, the game challenges you to lead a scientific research convoy to their destinations.

Every yard of the expedition presents its own challenge, with you fording rivers, climbing rocks, and delivering precious cargo to keep the expedition rolling. Luckily, you have a range of all-terrain vehicles at your disposal.
You also have access to a series of gadgets to aid in every mission. Your drone provides a valuable bird’s eye view, while the echo-sounding scanner prevents you from venturing too deep into the water.
With plenty of missions to complete and vehicles to drive, players have been asking what sort of world they can go driving in. In particular, if there’s an open world in Expeditions: A MudRunner Game.
Is Expeditions: A MudRunner Game open world?
For fans of open-world driving, Expeditions: A MudRunner Game is perfect for you. The game features three distinct maps, each boasting a wide open world for players to explore.

Each map is littered with air drops to find, each providing vital resources for the expedition. Along with the air drops, other trading spots can also be discovered.
You'll also come across river fords and rocky climbs, creating safe passage across vast bodies of water or through dramatic elevation changes on every journey. These are crucial to keeping the wheels turning, as going too far off-track could result in you becoming stranded.
However, while each mission is set in an open map, you need to complete certain missions to unlock free roam if you want to freely explore each envionment.
