9/10

For a free-to-play game, Where Winds Meet is a stunning experience. Its monetization systems are well balanced, and in my playthrough I never felt the need to spend any real money. There’s a lot of content and plenty of top-tier stuff to chase, making the overall package feel like tremendous value.

One of the most interesting games of this year is free. You will enjoy it mainly in solo mode supplemented with online components. It will open up the rich world of Chinese martial arts for you.

Where Winds Meet applies the action and charm of the Wuxia-style to a massive ARPG experience that’s easy to get sucking into.

Where Winds Meet, the new free open-world action RPG on PC and PlayStation 5, is a gigantic but inaccessible game.

Where Winds Meet is a very ambitious project, which deserves all the attention it received since its launch date. The game has features and activities for every kind of player.

Where Winds Meet is a game that has absolutely everything – including both clothed and naked cats. And if someone could explain how to play it, that would be perfect. I invite you to review the title.

Where Winds Meet does a lot of great stuff that should be commended for its freedom of choice, characters interaction and fantastic combat. However, it also struggles with its Free-To-Play mechanics, resulting in a grindy and stalled progression system.

Some of Where Winds Meet's many minigames and stealth systems could use a polish, but it doesn't Suck-iro – this martial arts action-RPG is well worth your time. If future updates focus on its strengths and reign in the gimmicks, this joyous open world will be a pleasure to fight your way through.

There is a lot to love about Where Winds Meet. Its combat mechanics are stellar, its world is remarkable, and it offers several fun twists on tried-and-true RPG mechanics. You have to pass challenges to prove that you've progressed to continue leveling up, which means you can't cheese your way through. The sect system is an engaging and lore-rich take on the character backgrounds many games have, as you must abide by a sect's rules, and the in-game rewards and penalties that tie into them are much more complex than the usual system. But these gems can get amid everything else.

Marriage, sumo wrestling, becoming a doctor and healing other players, going to prison, player housing, multiplayer raids, and a single-player campaign are all things present in Where Winds Meet. In other words, Where Winds Meet has a lot of different gameplay elements crammed into it. It’s the most “let’s put everything in it” game I’ve ever played, and as ambitious and crazy as that sounds, it kind of works.

Where Winds Meet dazzles with its breathtaking landscapes and authentic wuxia feel, but struggles under technical hiccups and uneven combat. Fans of martial arts epics will find moments of true magic, yet the game’s pacing and bloated systems may test patience. A visually stunning adventure that excites as much as it frustrates.

Where Winds Meet has a great understanding of what makes wuxia such a compelling genre, but its attempt to shove so many different things into one game only ensures that none of those elements reach their full potential.
