Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot producer Hara Ryosuke in an interview with DualShockers revealed it will not be an open world game, however, it will contain several large areas to explore.
"I kind of want to mention I don’t think this is a true open world in the way we’ve kind of come to understand the definition of an open world today," said Ryosuke. "There are several very large and wide expansive areas or zones if you will where you can experience different sagas of the Goku story. They’ll be unlocked as you progress through the narrative.
"To kind of give you a visual sense of how this is going to work; when you played the demo you saw that one area that Goku was interacting and progressing the story in. If you continue to ascend you’ll zoom out into this world map interface. From which point you choose an area and dive into that. So that’s how the areas and zones are connected."
