FTS: Where Winds Meet 1.3 Version “Spring’s Bliss” Available On February 6th



GUANGZHOU, China – (Feb 4th, 2026) – Everstone Studio today announced that its beloved open-world Wuxia ARPG Where Winds Meet will release the 1.3 Version - “Spring’s Bliss” on February 6th. In this update, the game is introducing a new Sect, a unique mystic skill, World Bosses, the brand new Guild War league, and special Spring Festival events to the Jianghu.


 

New Sect: The Masked Troupe

The all-new Sect “The Masked Troupe” will be available in the game on February 13. The Sect is a deep integration of traditional opera culture and Chinese martial arts, shaping a distinctive combat style where ‘opera’ is the essence and “martial arts” is the foundation. 

 

With movements as graceful as stage performances and footwork that cuts through the wind, The Masked Troupe is known for its skills originating from the singing, acting, and combat of the traditional Chinese opera. They command the battlefield with rhythm and cadence, weaving tales of joy and sorrow through offense and defense, transforming the myriad facets of life on stage into lethal techniques that conceal sharp edges.

 

New Mystic Skill: Contortion

 

In the 1.3 Version, the all-new mystic skill “ Contortion” will be available. Upon casting this skill, players can temporarily shrink their body, making it possible for them to reach previously inaccessible spaces or launch surprise attacks at critical moments to avert crises. Player can explore the application of this new skill in the new Spring Festival activity “Tiny Adventure”.

 

New World Bosses: Drunk Martial Artist and Coffin Master

 

Following the Spring Festival update, the Jianghu will welcome brand-new world boss challenges as the “Drunk Martial Artist” and “Coffin Master” join the vast wilderness. These two bosses embody contrasting styles—one unrestrained and wild, the other sinister and brooding—each testing challengers with unique combat techniques and rhythms. Players may encounter and challenge these formidable foes during wilderness exploration.


 

The All-new Guild War League

 

Following the February 6 update, the all-new Guild War league will debut with a phased competition format, delivering a long-term, continuous competitive experience. Players will begin with placement matches to determine their groups, then advance to the regular season to compete in group-ranking battles. The Guild War offers rich rewards, including Echo Jade, Hero Titles, and more. We invite all players to join, test your strength and tactics, and enjoy the thrill of fighting shoulder to shoulder with your guildmates!
