Project Windless Xbox Series X is an open-world action RPG from Krafton Montréal Studio. After several years in development, a glimpse into its world is finally here, showcasing the immense passion and attention to detail the creators have invested. The trailer itself hints at a dark atmosphere and a magnificent adventure.
Based on a Korean Saga
Project Windless Xbox Series X draws inspiration from the Korean fantasy saga The Bird That Drinks Tears, a series renowned for its originality. This isn't your typical Western fantasy; the story is stranger, rawer, and at times, tragic. It is this uniqueness that lends the entire universe its powerful emotion and humanity.
An Ancient Open World Full of Mysteries
Each race in the world of Project Windless Xbox Series X has its own history and perspective on reality, creating complex and ambiguous conflicts. Don't expect black-and-white heroes and villains, but rather an ancient, living world full of secrets. The game's open structure allows for exploration, free-roaming, and the gradual uncovering of stories hidden deep within.
LEGEND
A Story You Won't Find in the Books
The creators of Project Windless Xbox Series X chose not to retell a familiar story, but to delve deep into the universe's past. The plot unfolds more than a thousand years before the events of The Bird That Drinks Tears novel series, focusing on a pivotal period only briefly mentioned in the books. The land is divided, tensions are rising, and you step into the role of a mythical figure whose decisions will influence the birth of a new kingdom. This isn't just another chapter in a known world; it's about shaping it, during a time when legends are born.
CHOICES
Forge Your Own Path at Your Own Pace
From the initial concepts for Project Windless Xbox Series X, the goal was to create a world that belongs to the players. The open structure, free from mandatory paths, promotes freedom, discovery, and playing at your own pace. You can follow the main quest line, seek out hidden stories, or simply wander the landscape looking for opportunities. The world rarely forces you in one direction; instead, it reacts to your actions. Alliances, conflicts, and wars arise from your decisions, gradually shaping the legend you become.
THE NHAGA
Powerful, Yet Vulnerable
The Nhaga, a nomadic warrior race of humanoid birds, play a key role in the story of Project Windless Xbox Series X. Their imposing stature, strength, and long reach naturally support a dynamic combat style focused on one-versus-many encounters. However, they are not flawless heroes. The Nhaga are proud, solitary, and bound by their own convictions; they have weaknesses and fears, such as a fear of water. It is this combination of power and vulnerability that makes them a believable and memorable protagonist.
CHAOS
Fight Hordes of Enemies Alone
The combat system was designed to feel bigger, wilder, and less predictable than in typical action RPGs. As a Nhaga, you will face tens or even hundreds of enemies at once, and this isn't just a visual effect. Enemies react to your movements, surround you, and change tactics based on the situation. In addition to massive hordes, giant creatures will appear, dominating the battlefield and demanding a completely different approach. Each encounter thus forces you to quickly assess the situation, improvise, and adapt to the chaos of battle.
