Player versus environment

Often shortened to PvE, and can also be referred to as "Player versus everything". This is a game type where you fight computer-controlled opponents, known as NPCs, or non-playable characters. Most frequently used in multiplayer online games where you cooperate with other players to defeat opponents. Mobs, typically referred in MMORPGS, are examples of PvE enemies.
