If you’re stuck trying to figure out how to open the map in Where Winds Meet, you’re not alone. The control layout can be confusing at first, especially if you’re using a controller or playing through Steam Input. Here’s how to open and navigate the world map on every platform.
How to Open the Map on PC
The fastest way to access the full world map on PC is by pressing the M key. This instantly opens your current region view, showing quests, teleport points, and exploration progress.
If pressing M doesn’t work, check your control settings:
Open the pause menu
Go to Settings
Select Controls or Key Bindings
Look for the Map option and confirm it’s assigned to M
Some Steam setups may have custom bindings that block the map shortcut. In that case, disable Steam Input in your controller layout settings to restore default hotkeys.
How to Open the Map on PS5 Controller
If you’re using a DualSense controller, opening the map works a little differently.
Press the Touchpad button / left
Then press X to confirm the world map view
If nothing happens, plug the controller in with a cable and disable Steam Input from the game’s properties menu. Once that’s done, the touchpad and X combo should work normally, but it’s been having some issues.
Using the Map for Fast Travel
Once the world map opens, hover over any unlocked Teleport Point or region marker and press the on-screen confirm button to travel instantly. Some locations remain locked until you physically reach them first, so explore new regions early to unlock more travel points later.
Quick Tips for Navigation
Zoom in or out with your mouse wheel or right stick
Press Tab (PC) or Triangle (PS5) to toggle between regions
Hover over icons to check side quests and collectibles
Press M again to close the map instantly
Final Blurb
To open the world map in Where Winds Meet, press M on PC or use the Touchpad plus X on PS5. If your map doesn’t open, disable Steam Input and use a direct connection. Once fixed, you’ll be able to check quest paths, teleport fast, and explore the open world with ease.
