The narrative centers on Rover, an amnesiac character awakening from a deep slumber. As Rover embarks on their journey, they traverse vast landscapes and encounter a new world brimming with unfamiliar wonders and advanced technologies.”
Wuthering Waves unfolds within an expansive open-world setting. Players take command of the protagonist, Rover, along with recruited units known as Resonators, categorized into 4-star and 5-star rarities. The game’s endgame content offers diverse modes presenting combat challenges for characters.
Its gacha system introduces banners referred to as Convenes, providing opportunities to acquire Resonators and weapons. Convenes are classified into three types: novice, event, and standard. Additionally, a pity system ensures that 5-star items are obtained after a predetermined number of pulls.
