Where Winds Meet has an Eastern martial arts theme and we attach great importance to the representation of martial arts (wuxia) elements in the game. Weapons are an important part of a player’s fighting ability. We try to restore many unique weapons in Wuxia martial arts in the game such as Spear, Sword, Fan, Dual Sword, Umbrella and Glaive.

In addition to weapons, the game also has a number of equally important fighting abilities, which are the inheritance and expansion of the traditional Chinese martial art, kung fu. It includes some real-life fighting moves and others that seem to defy the laws of physics, adding an element of romance and fantasy to the combat system.
