Kuro Games announced the next version update for Wuthering Waves. Wuthering Waves Version 2.3, titled Fiery Arpeggio of Summer Reunion, will be released for Android, iOS, and PC via Windows and Epic Games Store, and on PlayStation 5 on April 29, 2025 (UTC+8). The previously announced Steam version of the game will also be releasing on that same day.
Wuthering Waves Version 2.3 Resonators
Two new 5-Star Resonators will make their debut in Version 2.3. The first is Zani, the staff member of the Montelli Family’s Averardo Bank in Ragunna, and the one who the Rover meets upon their arrival in Rinascita. She is a Spectro Resonator who uses gauntlet-based weapons, and a giant shield in combat. When she unleashes her Resonance Liberation, Zani’s stance changes, delivering a powerful blow to all enemies.
The next 5-Star resonator is Ciaccona. Born into a family that cherished poetry and music, Ciaccona is able to play a variety of instruments, believing that each of them have their own story. She is an Aero resonator who wields pistol-based weapons. Her Resonance Ability has her summon sigils that assist allies in battle, making her a powerful support unit.
Zani will be available during the first half of banners of Version 2.3, while Ciaccona will make her debut in the second half of the update.
