NetEase Games and Everstone Studio announced that pre-downloads for Where Winds Meet will start November 12th at 2 PM Pacific Time, 5 PM Eastern Time, 10 PM GMT, or 11 PM Central European Time.

Don’t be intimidated by technical terms like “open-source engine reimplementation”! Using OpenMW is actually very easy – you just download it and launch it (you do need to have the original Morrowind game installed first). I highly recommend checking it out – the developers have just released version 0.50, and it’s a significant update.
Daniel Vávra, the director of both Kingdom Come: Deliverance games, seems to agree with Fraser’s assessment. In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Vávra gave Obsidian’s newest game a solid, but not spectacular, 7 out of 10. However, he expressed disappointment, stating that despite fifteen years and significant resources from Microsoft, the team behind his favorite games (Fallout and New Vegas) hasn’t been able to innovate beyond the established formula with any new gameplay mechanics.
Launching on November 14th, Where Winds Meet will appeal to all kinds of players, with options for both a solo story experience and cooperative multiplayer fun.
Although Japanese patent application JP 2024-031879 isn’t central to the Palworld lawsuit, it’s connected to the patents Nintendo claims are being violated.

After a successful launch in China last year, the free-to-play game Where Winds Meet is now expanding globally. Millions of players have already pre-registered to receive rewards when it becomes available worldwide.
Avowed didn’t invent the idea of having clickable words in conversations that explain important details – things like characters, places, or story terms – without forcing you to open a separate menu. Obsidian, the game’s developer, even used a similar system in their previous game, Pillars of Eternity 2. That’s why I was surprised to find this feature missing from The Outer Worlds 2.
The development team was completely caught off guard when players discovered a way to become invisible using the game’s physics. They hadn’t even thought to test for this possibility, and the community cleverly found a loophole they hadn’t considered.
You can now earn three new types of tickets by completing quests. These tickets are used to craft the main event armor sets, armor for your Palico companions, and smaller items like aviator sunglasses, a Gelidron Mask, and a backpack. Here’s a guide to obtaining each ticket type, along with a complete list of all the armor sets, detailing their skills and the materials needed to craft them.
Where Winds Meet has already garnered over 5 million pre-registrations globally across all platforms. If you’re interested, you can add it to your wishlist on PS5 and Steam. You can also pre-register directly on the official website.
