"Where Winds Meet" has finally broken the silence, opening the gates of ancient China during the chaotic "Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms" era to the world. This ambitious title, a fusion of Action RPG, Wuxia martial arts, and unparalleled freedom, claims to define new standards for open-world games.
