The data is messy and some facts can be argued, but here are some really damn big video game maps.

World of Warcraft was the first map where I was impressed by the size. When that thing first came out, it seemed mind-boggling that you could run from one end to the other and it would take hours to do. I'm replaying it now, and it's still pretty impressive
Falcon, no shade whatsoever but your narration has always been generally monotone, and I thought it was just a stylistic choice. This delivery is awesome, love hearing you get animated. More of this for sure, great stuff.
Where is Eve online? It is definitely one of the biggest maps
Everybody should know what 1 is.
I think we may need to differentiate between kinds of game maps. Like Vehicle maps, Foot maps, & Generated maps.
I'm playing Starfield, & I'm already running out of things to do. I'm not really a shooter fan, so there is a limit to the amount of guys in spacesuits I can shoot.
It still cracks me up that MS Flight Simulator used Bing! maps.
They might by Bing! maps’ only user.
lol… who else paused to check the comments if Elite was in this video. :'D
"It's not code that did it, but maybe it is, who knows?! OoOoOooOOohhHHhHH"
HAHAHAHA maybe we are all in a simulation inside of Todd Howard's head?
Dyson Sphere Programme
tasked with building a dyson sphere , it models a vast star cluster – all with real modelled stars , solar systems and planets to explore and strip of resources
red giants , down to neutron stars and black holes , and with "realistic" travel times , that include slower / faster than light travel methods
you should REALLY check it out
I bought Elite Dangerous but damn, I am too stupid for it. I Event not able to enter a Space Station.
If it would have the smooth Controls of No Man Sky, I absolutly would love it 😂
No mans sky?
Does starfield REALLY have a bigger explorable world considering 99% of the planets are barren and unexplorable?
isn't no man's sky bigger than starfield?
This is literally the coolest video ive watched in a while
Both Daggerfall and Starfield are highly procedurally generated; if they're in, No Man's Sky should also.
4:45 "instead of just a city or a country, the game would be the entire CONTINENTAL united states" 😂
Minecraft be like🤷♂️
if we are talking video games and maps , and NMS is a video game with a map then it certainly counts .
NoMan'sSky: am i a joke to you?!
You should include Star Citizen more, it’s a great game with a massive map
Probably can use the time takes from one end to the other, excluding fast travelling
I feel like day Z should've been number ten , because of its accuracy to scale and sheer size
You guys zoomed directly on to my town😂❤10:10 Wauseon grew up 2 towns over in swanton
WTF is a mile
“but the average size is gotta be going up overtime right?” 😔
PS4 hits 1080p and the PS4 Pro hits 2160p.
PS5 native games struggling to hold 720p.
Was the commentator drunk or something doing this? lol corny af
SOOOO FFXV is NOT one of the biggest maps ever then? Wtf gameranx lol And the US is not a continent either. It's a country lol
So wait starfield which is randomly generated outside of a handful of planets counts but nomansky doesn't count for the same reason what stupid reason is that
Microsoft Flight Simulator looks like absolute garbage in rural mountainout areas.
You forgot about minecraft, it's between msfs and the space games
This is why I absolutely love the Yakuza games (and the Judgement games). Their maps are small by today’s standards, but they’re absolutely packed full of content that put even GTA to shame. Yakuza 5 came before GTA V, but had 5 medium sized maps with tons of sub stories (side quests) and mini-games, and then just things to do for fun. Not to mention, that because of their compact size, by the time you’re done with the game, you learn almost every nook and cranny of each map. The game map that’s repeated throughout the series, Kamurocho, is like travelling to a place you know by heart.
And there goes my
Just Cause wow moment, far into the past
I’m sure no man’s sky is bigger than all of these
Nms should be counted
In NMS you can take hours to get to another planet

Once upon a time on the PS5 Edition, I fell through the world map after zapping myself in pond with a powerful spell. I was teleported into a forbidden chunk of the map, a low detail, mountainous horizon in the northwest. After wandering a while ascending towards potato plateau, I was sent to an infinitely idle loading screen. The screen attempted to load me into the city where the guy resembling Hugo from thr show Lost resided.
