Where Winds Meet Shows Gameplay

NetEase Games and Everstone Studio released a new trailer for their free-to-play open world action RPG Where Winds Meet. The two-minute-and-a-half video, available to view below, introduces the game’s setting while showing snippets of gameplay. The game will launch for PC (via Steam and the Epic Games Store) and PlayStation 5 on November 14, 2025.

Where Winds Meet is set in the years leading to the start of the Northern Song Dynasty in China (second half of the 9th century CE). Players take on the role of a wandering swordsman, who must choose whether to uphold their moral code or live for themselves in a time ravaged by fighting. The game features fast-paced Wuxia-style combat, and implements many aspects of Chinese martial arts.

Where Winds Meet will launch with two regions: Qinghe and Kaifeng. Each region contains its own story arc and contributes towards the game’s storyline and the reveal of the player character’s past. Following its launch, the game will have a seasonal update model, with each season lasting around three months. The seasonal updates differ in focus, with some adding new regions and characters to advance the plot, while others will include new gameplay elements, time-limited activities, or upgraded social features and character progression.
