How to create a new character in Where Winds Meet

One of the biggest limitations of Where Winds Meet is related to the way character creation works.

Initially, it seemed like you needed a separate Steam account to create another character. But there’s a workaround – you can actually create a new character without deleting your existing one and facing a 14-day waiting period.

If you’re playing Where Winds Meet on PC, you can create a new character, though the process isn’t straightforward and takes a bit of effort.

Make sure you have cleared the tutorial of Where Winds Meet, as you’ll need access to the Settings.
Go to the Other tab.

Select Bind Account (second option from the top). Do note that your account is already bound to Steam. We will now bind it to a NetEase account so that we can create a new character.
Click on the Link button next to NetEase Games from the following pop-up.
A browser will take you to NetEase’s website, where you’ll either need to create a new account or log in to your existing one.
Once done, your account is now bound with NetEase.

Press V to open Customer Service (located at the bottom-right corner of the screen).
Choose Unbind from the options.
Select the Steam account, and type Confirm.
Restart Where Winds Meet once the process is complete.

If you restart the game, you’ll be able to create a new character. We’ve included a NetEase account requirement because you need two accounts to disconnect them. When you begin playing Where Winds Meet, Steam will recognize it as a completely new installation.

Hopefully, we will get an easier way to create new characters in the game in a future update.
