Kuro Games’ open-world action RPG Wuthering Waves is in for a massive update 2.0, arriving on January 2nd. Are you ready for a new adventure, Rover? Set off on a journey to the archipelago, shrouded in the grace of the divine — the Land of Echoes.
On the eve of the impending Threnodian, Ragunna whispers of liberation from its afflictions. Is this a fleeting illusion meant to mask its restless undercurrents? Or does the city truly pulse with vibrant energy, as its people embrace the bittersweet dance of laughter and longing amidst a grand carnival? There’s no room for worry now. As you step onto this enchanted land, why not ride the soaring tides?
“Henceforth… the stage is set and curtains drawn. Ah, traveler from distant shores… What role will you play in this revelry?”
In January, the biggest update yet will also invite a whole new audience. Version 2.0 and PS5 Version is set for its grand debut on January 2, 2025. The new main quest, new characters and companion stories, fresh mechanics and more await, and it’s time to spread your wings.
Rinascita is a nation of independent city-states scattered across a vast archipelago, with no single administrative center. Legends speak of the founders, who fled their homeland and sailed to these islands to escape the Lament, and were guided by their Sentinel to settle on these islands.
Your journey will take you to Ragunna, a vibrant city-state famous for its carnivals and arts. The region is being watched over by powerful families to allow creativity to flourish. But is it all as bright and bustling as it seems? Check out the trailers above and below to find out!
“Ah, Rover. Navigate the storm and the depths, and journey into the “Land of Echoes.” There, a grand carnival awaits, along with a promise yet to be fulfilled…”
