Everstone Studio’s open-world action RPG, Where Winds Meet, has surpassed 15 million players across PC, PlayStation 5, iOS, and Android since its launch. The game reached this milestone after the mobile versions were released on December 12, 2025. To celebrate this achievement, the studio announced support for Brazilian Portuguese, demonstrating their commitment to global communities. Where Winds Meet became one of the most-played games worldwide on mobile devices within its first month on PlayStation 5 and PC.

In addition, players can participate in a New Year’s celebration event in-game between December 31, 2025, and January 1, 2026.
