Where Winds Meet 1.8 adds Spring Splendor, Verdant Vow, new weapon skins, and companion cosmetics, with some outfit names still awaiting full official confirmation.
Where Winds Meet 1.8 adds two named player outfits — Spring Splendor and the Battle Pass set Verdant Vow — plus new weapon skins and companion/pet cosmetics, but a full official name-by-name list of every 1.8 skin is not yet verified.
Version 1.8 of Where Winds Meet, themed around homestead life, companions and pets, brings a focused wave of cosmetics rather than a giant armor drop. Two outfits arrive with confirmed in-game names, and a handful of other items are confirmed only by category — weapon types, companion gear, a few “new male and female” sets — without the exact labels attached yet. The update is expected to go live around June 25, 2026, which is when these become available to check for yourself.

Confirmed cosmetics versus the unnamed extras
Only two 1.8 cosmetics currently have exact, verified names: Spring Splendor and the Battle Pass outfit Verdant Vow. Everything else that has surfaced is real but only partly pinned down — new weapon skins for three weapon types, companion and pet outfits, emotes and interactions, plus some additional male and female fashion sets that are described but not named.
Every 1.8 cosmetic at a glance
| Cosmetic | Type | What is confirmed | How to get it | What is still unknown |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring Splendor | Player outfit | Pink, floral, maiden-style look; female version described as the stronger of the two | Cosmetic shop or event channel (not pinned down) | Exact shop tab, price, rarity, release duration |
| Verdant Vow | Player outfit (Battle Pass) | Outfit set plus hairstyle and ornaments; tied to the 1.8 Battle Pass | Battle Pass progression | Exact tier, pass price, availability window |
| Hangblade skin | Weapon skin | Weapon type receives a new 1.8 skin | Not confirmed | Skin name, animations, effects, cost |
| Mo Blade skin | Weapon skin | Weapon type receives a new 1.8 skin | Not confirmed | Skin name, animations, effects, cost |
| Rope Dart skin | Weapon skin | Weapon type receives a new 1.8 skin | Not confirmed | Skin name, animations, effects, cost |
| Companion / pet outfits | Companion cosmetic | New pet and companion outfits tied to the companion systems | Bond progression and the Companion Shop | Exact reward names and which pets they fit |
| Companion emotes / interactions | Companion cosmetic | Custom emotes and interactive pet behaviors unlock through bonding | Bond progression / Companion Shop | Official labels; one “Cute-” themed reward is unverified |
| Additional male / female sets | Player fashion | Update “features new outfits” beyond the two named ones | Likely shop/event (unconfirmed) | Names, count, prices — all unverified |
Treat the top two rows as the solid part of the answer and the rest as confirmed-but-incomplete. The wording in each “still unknown” column is deliberately cautious because the in-game names and prices simply have not been verified yet.
Spring Splendor, the pink maiden outfit
Spring Splendor is the more traditional of the two named outfits — a pink-themed, maiden-style set decorated with floral detailing and intricate hair ornaments. The soft palette and the accessory work are what carry it, and the female version is highlighted as the visually stronger of the pair. The male version isn’t ignored; it leans on a stylish hairstyle, but the outfit itself reads as more modest by comparison.
Verdant Vow, the 1.8 Battle Pass set
Verdant Vow is the Version 1.8 Battle Pass outfit, and it comes as a full package: an outfit set, a matching hairstyle, and ornaments. As with Spring Splendor, the female version is the standout, mostly thanks to the hairstyle and hair ornaments, while the male version is described as solid but a step below some earlier Battle Pass cosmetics.
The one firm fact is that it’s Battle Pass-linked rather than a straight shop purchase. The exact tier it sits at, the premium pass price, and how long the pass runs are not confirmed, so plan to earn it through Battle Pass progression and check the reward track once 1.8 is live.
New weapon skins for Hangblade, Mo Blade and Rope Dart
| Weapon type | Skin name | Animation/effects | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hangblade | Not verified | Not verified | Not verified |
| Mo Blade | Not verified | Not verified | Not verified |
| Rope Dart | Not verified | Not verified | Not verified |
Version 1.8 also adds weapon skins, but here the detail thins out fast. Three weapon types are confirmed to receive new skins — Hangblade, Mo Blade and Rope Dart — and that’s the verified part. The actual skin names, any unique animations or particle effects, and the cost to acquire them are not confirmed from the available material.
If newer in-game evidence fills these in after launch, that’s where to slot the names and prices — for now, the weapon type is the only confirmed piece per row.
Companion and pet cosmetics
Because 1.8 is built around homestead life, companions and pets, a real chunk of its cosmetic value lives in that system rather than in player fashion. The new Companion Shop is the core of cosmetic progression for pets and companions, and raising bond with these animals is what unlocks custom companion outfits, specialized emotes, and interactive actions such as unique pet behaviors.
One reward is described as an exclusive “Cute-” themed interaction or cosmetic, but the full label is cut off in the available wording, so the exact in-game name is uncertain. A separate Pet Battle feature is mentioned alongside skins and emotes, which hints that some pet cosmetics may be tied to pet combat or ranking rather than a flat purchase — though that link isn’t spelled out in detail.
CN previews, older skins and price claims to ignore
A lot of the “new 1.8 skins” floating around come from Chinese (CN) preview footage, and those are not guaranteed to land in global Version 1.8 — or in the same order. A skin shown running on a CN account might arrive globally months later, get reworked, or stay CN-side for a while, so treat any CN-only showcase as a wishlist preview, not a 1.8 release list.
Watch the version numbers too. Cosmetics like Empyrean Regalia, Martial Destiny, Tiger Spring Reverie and Cloudborne Missive belong to Version 1.6, not 1.8, and shouldn’t be mixed into a 1.8 roundup. And on pricing: a circulating “28K skin” has no verified name, currency type, or confirmed link to 1.8, while a 1280 Echo Beads Outfit Pack advertised at $14.72 (down from $19.98) is a third-party top-up offer, not an in-game skin price. None of those numbers should be read as what a cosmetic actually costs inside the game.
Don’t pre-spend based on CN previews or third-party top-up prices — only Spring Splendor and Verdant Vow have confirmed names, and no 1.8 skin has a verified in-game cost yet, so wait until the update is live to confirm what’s real.
Where to look once 1.8 goes live
When the update lands, four places hold the answers. Check the Battle Pass reward track for Verdant Vow, the cosmetic shop and draw pages for Spring Splendor and the unnamed fashion sets, the weapon appearance menus for the Hangblade, Mo Blade and Rope Dart skins, and the Companion Shop plus bond rewards for pet and companion cosmetics.
That’s also where the currently-unknown details — prices, tiers, skin names, animations — will finally be confirmed, so the in-game pages are the source to trust over any pre-launch preview.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Spring Splendor and Verdant Vow the only confirmed named 1.8 outfits?
Yes — they are the only two 1.8 cosmetics with exact, verified in-game names right now. Other additions are confirmed by category (weapon skins, companion gear, extra male and female sets) but don’t have official names attached yet.
Is Verdant Vow free or part of the Battle Pass?
Verdant Vow is the Version 1.8 Battle Pass outfit, so it’s earned through pass progression rather than handed out free. The exact tier, the premium pass price, and how long it stays available are not yet confirmed.
Are the Hangblade, Mo Blade and Rope Dart skins confirmed by name?
No. Only the three weapon types are confirmed to be getting new 1.8 skins. The skin names themselves, along with any animations, effects and costs, are not verified yet.
Are CN preview outfits guaranteed for global 1.8?
No. Skins seen on Chinese accounts are previews, not a global release list. They may arrive later, get changed, or release in a different order, so they shouldn’t be counted as confirmed global 1.8 cosmetics.
Are pet and companion cosmetics separate from player outfits?
Yes. Companion outfits, emotes and interactions are their own category, unlocked mainly through bond progression and the Companion Shop, and they appear to be tied to specific companion types rather than shared across every pet.
