Unlike previous runs, there are only four Contested Zones in the 4.6 Windtrace. Every time you start a game, a random Contested Zone will be chosen as the round's battlefield!

Play Hide and Seek in Co-Op

Can You Play Windtrace with Friends?

Players can either have custom matches with their friends in Co-Op or play with random people. You can have up to 2 friends and 1 random match in a game and still collect coins!

If everyone in the round is four friends with no random match, you do not get coins.

Hunters and Rebels Team

Windtrace Event Roles
Hunter Guide	Rebel Guide

A match will have one player as the Hunter and up to three players as Rebels.

The Hunter wins if they capture all Rebels, or if the time runs out. The Rebels win if they evade capture and repair 4 Signaling Devices before the time runs out!

Rebels Can Escape Once After Being Caught

In Version 4.6, if a Rebel is caught for the first time, they will be Exiled for a short time and then Freed after time out. Their Rebel friends can also free you earlier! If they are caught a second time, they're permanently out of the round.

Recommended Characters

Character	Explanation
Xiao	・Reduced Stamina consumption while climbing allows you to reach elevated hiding spots faster.
Razor	・Reduced Stamina consumption while sprinting allows you to escape faster.
Kaeya	・Reduced Stamina consumption while sprinting allows you to escape faster.

Repair Signaling Devices as a Rebel

Six Signaling Devices are added in each round in Version 4.6. These devices prevent nearby Rebels from disguising. Rebels have to repair 4 devices to win the match!

Hunters need to prevent Rebels from repairing the devices before the timer ends or eliminate them all to win.

Devices Being Repaired Enter High-Speed Signaling State

When a Signaling Device is being repaired, it will emit a light visible to all players, meaning Hunters will be able to spot any Rebels near devices under repair!

Windtrace Windward Arts

Windtrace Event Skills

During the event, your combat abilities will be replaced by Windward Arts depending on your role and which Windward Art you equip. You can equip Windward Arts in the Windtrace event menu as well as the match lobby.
