This update marks the arrival of the game’s first Rinascita heroes, further enhancing the player experience with new explorations, events, and intriguing gameplay content.
Set to launch on January 2, 2025, Wuthering Waves is gearing up for its 2.0 update, a significant milestone for Kuro Games’ RPG. In less than a year since its debut, the game not only thrived throughout 2024 but also earned a nomination for Best Mobile Game at The Game Awards. Recently released trailers have teased players with glimpses of new storylines and adversaries associated with the Rinascita narrative. Notably, Carlotta and Roccia are confirmed as the initial Rinascita characters featured in this update, showcasing their abilities through various promotional materials.
According to information available on the official Wuthering Waves website, the character lineup for Version 2.0 is as follows:
Wuthering Waves Version 2.0 Character Lineup
Phase 1: January 2 to January 23
- Carlotta (5-Star): Ice, Pistols
- Zhezhi (5-Star): Ice, Rectifier
- Sanhua (4-Star): Glacio, Sword
- Chixia (4-Star): Fusion, Pistols
- Mortefi (4-Star): Fusion, Pistols
Phase 2: January 23 to February 12
- Rock (5-Star): Havoc, Gauntlet
- Jinhsi (5-Star): Spectro, Broadblade
- Danjin (4-Star): Havoc, Sword
- Youhu (4-Star): Ice, Gauntlet
- Yuanwu (4-Star): Electro, Gauntlet
Phase 1 primarily features Glacio and Fusion characters, while Phase 2 showcases a broader array of elemental types. Players may feel particularly drawn to the newly introduced Rinascita characters, yet it’s worthwhile to consider the featured Huanglong units as well. For instance, Zhezhi stands out as an excellent addition to teams due to her capability to deal off-field damage, and Jinhsi remains one of the top damage-per-second (DPS) characters available.
Looking ahead, the Rinascita arc is anticipated to enrich Wuthering Waves with even more Resonators in subsequent updates. As outlined by Kuro Games’ communications, potential new characters like Zani, Brant, and Phoebe are on the horizon. Furthermore, there is speculation that Phrolova, a central antagonist for Version 2.0, may also be introduced to the character roster during the update cycle.
