(right?). However, this launch also comes alongside exciting news for martial-arts fans as NetEase brings on Yuen Woo-Ping as Where Winds Meet’s global action consultant.

Some of you might not know the name, but for movie fans, Yuen Woo-Ping is famous for his fight choreography. He’s worked on everything from classic martial arts films like Snake in the Eagle’s Shadow (which he also directed) and Kung Fu Hustle, to big Hollywood blockbusters like Kill Bill and The Matrix.

In addition to the game’s existing martial arts, the team behind Where Winds Meet is working with Yuen Woo-Ping and his renowned stunt group, the Yuen Clan, to add more realistic motion capture. This means players can expect even more impressive and exciting combat in future updates – the current palace battles are just a taste of what’s to come.
