We're very excited to announce Windstorm: The Legend of Khiimori, an epic open-world adventure game where players will explore breathtaking landscapes on horseback, featuring high-fidelity graphics and unparalleled realism in equine behavior and animation, developed on Unreal Engine 5.

Taking on the role as an ancient courier rider, players will complete difficult missions, cultivate their nomad camp, and train and care for majestic horses as they unravel the mystery of Khiimori, the mythical “wind horse” and the spirit of the earth and sky.

Windstorm: The Legend of Khiimori will launch in Early Access on Steam in September 2024.

In Windstorm: The Legend of Khiimori, players will embark on an epic adventure set in 13th century Mongolia, stepping into the role of a young courier rider. Horses will be essential to survival and safety as players breed horses, tame new ones and train them to aid them in their charting of the sprawling Mongolian landscape. As they immerse themselves into the game’s expansive open world full of wonders and intriguing tales, players will need to strategically plan their routes through different biomes of beautiful, yet harsh terrain, and master the challenges of the wilderness to complete their missions.

Building on the open world aspect the Windstorm games are known for, Windstorm: The Legend of Khiimori advances gameplay mechanics that are unique to the game’s core experience. As players explore the world and complete missions, they will cultivate their nomad camp along the way, building yurts, managing important items and resources, and training and caring for their horses. Throughout their journey, players will take on quests that test their capabilities and require riding mastery and thoughtful planning in order to build their legacy as one of the greatest ancient courier riders in 13th century Mongolia.

Windstorm: The Legend of Khiimori will launch in Early Access on Steam in September 2024, at a very early stage in its development, so the development team can iterate and develop gameplay based on community input. A roadmap of planned updates during the Early Access phase will be released in the coming months.
