Hidden Mountain Region
The Hidden Mountain is a massive Eastern Steampunk-vibe playground with undersea depths, underground kingdoms, floating sky cities, and towering peaks.
This unusual style comes from the mountain's secret Mohist sect. They turned the mountain into a huge mechanism with hundreds of sophisticated mechanical devices, as ancient engineering masters.
Here's what you can do in the new map:
- Use Lightness Skill, gliding, climbing, and new mechanical vehicles to cross large elevation differences. Every cliff, cave, and secret hideout behind a rushing waterfall is explorable.
- Custom vehicle assembly and DIY mechanical crafting are added in the expansion. Build mechanical contraptions and vehicles to solve puzzles and pave new paths by putting together complex components.
Where Winds Meet 2.0 Era
The Hidden Mountain expansion is introducing significant visual and auditory improvements to the game in order to optimize player immersion.
Improved rock textures effectively reflect wind, water, and time's natural traces, while optimized wind dynamics provide layered sounds as gales rush across mountain gorges.
Moreover, a new ray-tracing and light rendering system accurately replicates the mountain's intricate, delicate lighting, thereby immersing players in the world.
New Sect, Weapons, Combat
Mohist Hill Sect: This new sect is specifically designed for players who enjoy crafting and construction, and it is concealed deep within the sea of clouds. The architectural and mechanical crafting abilities of its disciples are enhanced in a manner that is unparalleled, as they are the first building-specialized sect in Where Winds Meet.
Gauntlet Discipline: Witness martial monk "fist-to-flesh" combat. Perform lightning-fast combos, ultra-close-quarters fighting, and instant-burst damage to destroy enemy defenses with the new Gauntlet Discipline.
Steampunk-themed Bosses: Play against new bosses with clockwork and mechanical horrors. Some require you to solve contextual mechanism puzzles during combat, while others challenge your skills with unrelenting attacks or venomous swords.
