Glossary Entry: Fast Travel

Definition

Fast Travel refers to a game's method of instantly teleporting a player to a known location. This allows players to skip the tedious process of actually travelling from place to place, which can be very useful in games with large worlds.

Most games also place restrictions on when and where a player may fast travel. For example, players are usually only able to travel to locations they've personally visited.
