Video Game Role-Playing Games, often abbreviated as RPGs, are a genre of video games where players assume the roles of characters in a fictional world. Players typically create or choose a character, each with unique abilities and traits, and embark on quests or missions. The gameplay often involves exploration, combat, and interaction with non-player characters (NPCs) to advance the story.
RPGs can be divided into various sub-genres, including turn-based and action RPGs. Many RPGs feature a leveling system, allowing characters to gain experience points and improve their skills over time. Popular examples of RPGs include Final Fantasy, The Elder Scrolls, and The Witcher.
