Hey there, Rovers! I’m thrilled to bring you some exciting news about the latest updates coming to Wuthering Waves, thanks to the entire development team. This cross-platform open-world ARPG has been available on PS5, allowing for smooth data sharing across PS5, PC, and mobile devices. With the upcoming release of version 2.2, titled Tangled Truth in Inverted Tower, set for March 26, you can look forward to new characters, maps, gameplay features, and more. Plus, there’s a special treat for players: complete the Main Quest, and you’ll receive a complimentary 5-Star weapon.
Now, let’s dive into the main quest updates. Prepare to explore Avinoleum in pursuit of uncovering the secrets of Cartethyia and Sentinel. Reflecting on the storyline from version 2.0, where the mysterious Cartethyia and the missing Imperator hold secrets yearning to be uncovered, version 2.2 introduces fresh Main Quests: The Maiden, The Defier, and The Death Crier. Your journey begins at Beohr Waters, nestled behind Porto-Veno Castle, and takes you to Avinoleum, an inverted region suspended in mid-air, offering a glimpse into a hidden history. While unraveling the tales of Rinascita and discovering the truth about Sentinel, players can bag the 5-Star Sword Bloodpact’s Pledge, free of charge.
In the realm of Resonators, get ready to meet Cantarella—the new 5-Star Resonator and the 36th Lead of the Fisalia family. Debuting in version 2.2, she stands as a Havoc Resonator, wielding a Rectifier. Her combat style, inspired by the deep-sea and laced with her family’s poisonous legacy, shines through her unique attack using an umbrella and toxic jellyfish. These attacks allow her to collect Trance energy, and when Prance energy is harnessed, heavy ground attacks induce the Mirage state, evoking an underwater illusion. With her deft skills, Cantarella can heal her entire team and immobilize enemies with her Resonance Skill. When Resonance Liberation is activated, expect coordinated attacks for prolonged periods, while her Outro Skill ramps up damage for Havoc and Resonance Skills for future Resonators.
On the attribute front, Aero is the new highlight. Available after Spectro and Havoc, Rover introduces Rover: Aero. This attribute arms Rover with a one-handed sword, enabling swift aerial maneuvers and powerful strikes. When specific conditions are met, Rover’s aerial skills can rejuvenate the team. Aero Rover’s talents include executing Resonance Skills mid-air and transforming enemy Negative Status effects into Aero Erosion Effects. The Outro Skill further enhances the Aero Erosion Effect’s capacity. As Rover accumulates battle energy, they can call forth a colossal sword from the sky, wreaking havoc on foes. Post-Resonance Liberation, expect Aero Damage unleashed on adversaries, complemented by team healing.
Version 2.2 also marks the launch of Cantarella’s Companion Story, A Fleeting Night’s Dream. A mysterious letter from the Ghost Girl sends Rover to the Night of Remembrance celebration in Egla Town. Here, amidst festivities, a girl in a red hat will shed light on the secrets hidden within Porto-Veno Castle. Join Cantarella on a journey through the Sea of Ghosts, peeling back layers of forgotten lore waiting for discovery.
As the saga develops, Rover will venture into uncharted territory—Avinoleum. Once a grand seminary in Ragunna, this region now ascends to the skies, alongside Sentinel. However, it bears the haunting memories of the Dark Tide outbreak with Tacet Discords still lurking. To combat these threats, and to curb the looming Dark Tide, gravity has flipped, with the region’s dome now facing downward.
Players can expect new challenges with Gravity Adjustment, as they delve into the depths of Avinoleum. The land is peppered with Gravity Calibrators, and activating them provides players the power to control gravity’s direction.
Since debuting in 2024, Wuthering Waves hit 30 million downloads globally within its first month, clinching accolades like the PS Blog’s Players’ Choice. And this is just the start.
Post-launch on the PS5, we’re tirelessly working to deliver exhilarating content to players globally. Set for release on March 26, version 2.2 invites Rovers to embark on an epic journey into the inverted tower with Cartethyia and Cantarella, revealing hidden truths and Rinascita’s concealed past. Ready yourselves, adventurers!
