Team Up in Ancient China: Where Winds Meet Co-op Made Easy

Want to conquer 10th-century China with your squad? Where Winds Meet’s multiplayer system might seem confusing at first, but unlocking co-op is simpler than you think. Whether you’re battling world bosses or solving puzzles together, this guide gets you teamed up fast.

Where Winds Meet Unlocking Co-op: The Requirements

Co-op unlocks through main story progression, typically during the Still Shore Evercare Clinic questline. After completing this section, head west to find the General Shrine teleport stone and activate it—the “Social” option should appear in your main menu, signaling multiplayer is ready.

If it doesn’t unlock immediately, focus on increasing your character level and World Level, as these can trigger the Fellowship feature.
