Where Winds Meet has officially confirmed its global release on November 14, 2025, for PC and PlayStation 5. Developed by NetEase-owned Everstone Studio, this open-world action-adventure RPG was first revealed in 2022 and has been eagerly anticipated ever since.
A Wuxia Adventure in Ancient China
Similar to Black Myth: Wukong, one of last year’s biggest hits, Where Winds Meet brings players into a rich wuxia world. The story follows the perilous journey of a young swordsman in 10th-century China. The game is Everstone Studio’s debut project and took five years in development, including multiple closed beta tests and worldwide playtests throughout 2025, the latest occurring in July.
Release Date and Pre-Order Rewards
In a recent announcement, Everstone Studio revealed the November 14 launch for both PC and PS5. Pre-ordering the game provides players with exclusive in-game items: one of three cosmetic packs, 10,000 coins worth of in-game currency, a Lingering Melody draw item, and an Astral Trail Name Card background. The announcement also coincided with a new trailer highlighting the game’s high-fidelity world, fast-paced combat, and brutal boss battles.
Why Fans Should Watch This Title
Fans of Black Myth: Wukong and Wuchang: Fallen Feathers will likely find Where Winds Meet an exciting addition to the wuxia RPG scene. Its release also comes at a strong period for Chinese game developers, reinforcing the region as an emerging powerhouse in AAA gaming. How Where Winds Meet performs could be pivotal for maintaining this momentum.
Mark your calendars for November 14, 2025, and prepare to embark on an unforgettable journey through Ancient China.
