No A AAA open-world game requires a large studio, a proprietary game engine, massive art, audio, and content pipelines, and years of production. Vibe coding can't substitute for that team and tooling.
What it would actually take: A real version needs a custom or licensed 3D engine, a team of level designers, artists, writers, animators, and audio engineers, and a multiplayer/online backend if applicable. It also needs console certification, QA at scale, and a publishing budget in the tens to hundreds of millions of dollars.
