Wuthering Waves Announces Version 1.3

Wuthering Waves has unveiled version 1.3, which arrives for all players on September 29. The announcement was made by Kuro Games during the official broadcast on September 20, revealing the next Wuthering Waves major update and showing players what to expect from the action RPG in the coming days.

On August 15, version 1.2 “In the Turquoise Moonglow” was released, with Wuthering Waves introducing Zhezhi and Xiangli Yao as new five-star characters, accompanied by their weapons Rime-Drapped Sprouts (Zhezhi) and Verity’s Handle (Xiangli Yao). The update brought new events such as “Do Echoids Dream of Electric Sheep?,” Gifts of Lunar Radiance, installment 1.2 of Depths of Illusive Realm, Zhezhi’s companion quest and Vigil of Endless Night, and the new Echo Phantom Dreamless.

Now, Kuro Games has announced Wuthering Waves version 1.3, which arrives on Sunday, September 29. One of the highlights is the debut of the new character The Shorekeeper, a five-star Spectro Rectifier who can transform into a butterfly, and Youhu, a four-star Glacio Gauntlet Resonator who can change her moveset and battle effects. The game will add The Shorekeeper’s signature weapon, Stellar Symphony, and the Deep Sky Blazer. A new area will be introduced, with the Black Shores archipelago becoming available for players to explore its stories and mysteries.

As players prepare to explore the contents of version 1.3 over the next few days, new information already hints at what to expect in the future. Leaks teases that Wuthering Waves version 1.4 characters will be Camellya and Dengdeng, respectively a Havoc sword and a broadblade user. Another leak suggests that Jinshi and Sanhua should get new skins, and that version 1.4 will be the last before update 2.0. But as usual, leaks need to be taken with a pinch of salt, as information is always subject to change.
