Sunlight dances on rippling water. Luscious green is draped from here to the horizon under the protection of rocky cliff faces. My stroll turns to a jog before I suddenly take flight, tearing through the sky with grandiose martial artistry, whipping and soaring like an angel with a point to prove. There's no doubt about it: Where Winds Meet is stunning.
Where Winds Meet is an open-world, Wuxia RPG set in 10th Century China. You play a young sword master who can scale and run along walls, as well as burst into flight at a moment's notice, meaning exploration is fluid and exciting. Early into my hands-on sessions I was eager to test the limits of traversal, and I'm delighted to say at no point did I encounter any frustrating limitations.
