Where Winds Meet – Release Times & What to Know
Published on: 11/10/2025
If you’ve been waiting to dive into a sweeping Wuxia-style adventure across ancient China, then the upcoming action game Where Winds Meet might be for you. Here’s everything you need to know about when you’ll be able to play, how to prepare.
What to Expect
Where Winds Meet sends you into 10th-century China during the era of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. It blends an open-world action structure with optional online co-op components (dungeons, boss battles, raids, PVP).
In solo play you’ll explore the world, help NPCs, learn martial arts from unexpected sources (including animals), and progress through a Wuxia-style narrative. Combat and traversal bare resemblances to something like Elden Ring in tone, though arguably less grim. The multiplayer components promise a shared-world feel, positioning the game somewhere between a full MMORPG and a single-player open-world action RPG.
Release & Preload
According to the latest information, Where Winds Meet will release on Friday, November 14, 2025 at 10 pm GMT (which roughly corresponds to 5 pm ET / 2 pm PT) when it launches globally on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store. Ahead of that launch, the preload opens on Wednesday, November 12, 2025 at 10 pm UTC, giving you about 48 hours to download and get ready.
The game is expected to have a hefty footprint — the file size is listed at “upwards of 100 GB,” depending on optional extras such as full voice-acting and regional content. If this sounds like something you are interested in, get ready for that pre-download.
