The geese from Where Winds Meet are seen by some as the ultimate evil and by others as a funny meme, which even reflects the strength of all characters. Part of the community will soon be able to transform into a goose to drive other players into sheer madness.
What kind of mode is this? To celebrate the 1st anniversary, the Chinese version of Where Winds Meet will soon receive a new limited-time mode called “The Phantom Thief Goose.” In this mode, the goal is to quack and peck like a goose to instill pure fear in all who cross your path while stealing various possessions.
Imagine an adult version of “Untitled Goose Game” (which you can find on Steam, it’s a lot of fun in co-op with the kids). Anyone who has ever angered a goose in Where Winds Meet knows what can happen when players control a kind of quacking death demon.
Something big is coming to Where Winds Meet at the end of 2026:
“They are letting you transform into one of those demons!?”
When is the mode coming to us? Where Winds Meet is celebrating its 1st anniversary in the West around November 14, 2026. You can expect a similar event then. What is already specifically planned for the local version of the role-playing game can be found here: Where Winds Meet roadmap and upcoming content.
How is the community reacting to the event? The geese from Where Winds Meet have become a popular meme. They are not only tough opponents but also striking mounts, reliable companions, or linked to a useful martial arts skill. Accordingly, the comments are quite humorous.

Since an update in November, Where Winds Meet rates the strength of your character with a new metric that resembles the horsepower of cars, just in a funny way. The higher the goose value your fighter has, the harder he hits.
