What Wikipedia says

2.5D (basic pronunciation two-and-a-half-dimensional and two-point-five-d) perspective refers to gameplay or movement in a video game or virtual reality environment that is restricted to a two-dimensional (2D) plane with little to no access to a third dimension in a space that otherwise appears to be three-dimensional and is often simulated and rendered in a 3D digital environment.
