Every area shoulf be accessible as it will be an open-world game. Each district harbours its own little neighbourhoods that can be explored.
While adventuring alone or with your party in Redfall's co-op mode, you will also find safehouses scattered throughout the map where you can stop to replenish supplies and pick up quests from locals.
