Where Winds Meet Coming to PlayStation
A Wuxia-Inspired Open World Action-Adventure Game
Where Winds Meet was just revealed at PlayStation’s State of Play May 2024! It’s an epic Wuxia open world action-adventure game where you’ll be able to perform martial arts at the highest, mystical levels often seen in classic Wuxia films! Everstone Studio’s producer Beralt Lyu mentions the classic films "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" or "House of The Flying Daggers" as perfect examples of what Wuxia is, and that players can expect such iconic elements from Chinese cinema into Where Winds Meet.
Players will be able to play as a young swordsman or swordswoman and go on a journey of self discovery to master all sorts of magical Chinese martial arts; from channeling QingGong to climb up cliffs or across water, or using the inner energy of Chi to targe and stun foes from far away. You will meet all sorts of characters from ancient Chinese history, where you could either befriend or fight with!
A release date has not been mentioned, but they are eager to present more news and information at a later date!

The game will be primarily set in a period of the "Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms," where the studio sees a fresh take into tackling ancient Chinese history. Lyu describes it as "a time of great turbulence and change and represents the perfect setting for our young hero to carve their path and discover their destiny."
Lyu shares his excitement in the seamless open world they’ve crafted, filled with different regions populated with breathtaking landscapes rich with ancient Chinese history and culture. Lastly, the combat will of course be inspired by Chinese martial arts and the fantastical elements of Wuxia, so expect some grounded battles mixed with exaggerated law-defying moves!
