Wuthering Waves is a free-to-play ARPG game developed and published by the game company Kuro Games. It was released on May 23 for various platforms, including Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. A gacha game with an open world aspect, it has been compared to other titles such as Genshin Impact.
Wuthering Waves Was Released On Multiplatforms
One of the most popular phenomena in the gaming world in recent years is Genshin Impact, the title by HoYoverse that revolutionized the gacha universe. This free-to-play game brought a huge number of new people to this peculiar genre, and since then many other studios have been trying to replicate that same success. Wuthering Waves, a game from Kuro Games, was released and, after some closed tests, will attempt to crown itself as the next big gacha.
Originally announced in 2022, Wuthering Waves is a third-person action RPG, just like its main competitor Genshin Impact. This title will feature teams of three characters and will allow us to choose the gender of our main character at the start of the adventure.
Genshin Impact Rival
Similar to the HoYoverse title, Kuro Games’ game will have a large open world map, with some particular elements to facilitate exploration, such as grappling hooks or even the ability to run on walls. However, Wuthering Waves promises to place the greatest emphasis on its combat.
While characters will have certain elemental affinities, the mechanics do not revolve around combining these elements as in the HoYoverse title. Instead, the strength of assembling different teams will lie in each character having unique abilities when entering and exiting combat.
This means that the different characters, available through the game’s gacha system, will be able to interact with each other regardless of their elements.
The other major differentiator of Wuthering Waves is the ability to use the enemies we defeat in combat. In Kuro Games’ game, we can obtain different Echoes, which function as abilities that allow us to summon certain enemies.
These Echoes can even be used when switching characters, meaning we can summon an enemy to attack while bringing one of our other characters into the battlefield without interrupting the attack. The Echoes will also offer different bonuses to our stats.
