Wuthering Waves Launches Version 2.6 Update

Kuro Games has unveiled a preview of Wuthering Waves Version 2.6 during their special broadcast. Titled By Sun's Scourge, By Moon's Revelation, the update launches globally on August 28th.

The new version advances the main storyline with two fresh chapters: Chapter II Act VIII - By Sun's Burning Hand and Chapter II Act IX - By Moon's Fated Light. Players can also claim 10 Radiant Tide and 10 Forging Tide through the Gifts of the Moon Roamer login event.

Exploration Takes Center Stage in Version 2.6

The update introduces Sanguis Plateaus, a new region serving as the backdrop for both main quests and special events. Players can experience various activities including area exploration in Hunt of Ash and Steel, photo collection in Prints of Plateaus, and a tower defense challenge called Tidal Defense Simulator.

Additional limited-time events will run throughout Version 2.6, including: Sanguis Plateaus Travel Atlas, Gifts of the Hunt, Second Coming of Solaris (Ultra), Marks of the Wild, Moonlit Revelation, Beyond the Waves: Rinascita, and Back to Solaris.

New Echoes join the roster like The False Sovereign, Lady of the Sea, and Corrosaurus, along with Nightmare variants including Gulpuff, Chirpuff, and predator-types with elemental affinities. Phantom Echoes Fallacy of No Return and Kerasaur also debut.

New Combat Challenges Arrive

Tactical Hologram: Lady of the Sea offers focused combat trials, while two banner phases introduce new Resonators. Phase I features Augusta, Carlotta, and The Shorekeeper, with Phase II adding Iuno and Ciaccona.

Signature weapons will be available through separate banners, including Thunderflare Dominion (Augusta), The Last Dance (Carlotta), and Moongazer's Sigil (Iuno). Players can also obtain the Hunter's Growl Series through the Pioneer Podcast's Insider Channel.
