Kuro Game announced on social media that every Wuthering Waves player can get the five-star Resonator Xiangli Yao for free, provided they participate in a new event. He’ll be able to earn starting on September 7, 2024.
Here’s how the promotion will work. The By Moon’s Grace event will appear after the Wuthering Waves update, and if we play through it we earn the Resonator Xiangli Yao as a bonus. Like similar events in other gacha games, you get Popularity. When you hit a certain tier, which Kuro didn’t disclose yet, you get to claim the character.
In addition to being free, people will be able to pull for Xiangli Yao on one of the new banners in Wuthering Waves 1.2. He’s an Electro element character who uses Gauntlets to attack enemies. His reveal also noted he’s an investigator at Huaxu Academy. It seems he’ll be a part of the second banner in the update. The other new five-star this update will be Zhezhi.
The latest trailer for the 1.2 update showed off some Xiangli Yao gameplay. If you skip ahead to the 1:20 mark, you can see how he’ll work in a fight.
Wuthering Waves is available on PCs and mobile devices, and the 1.2 update arrives on August 15, 2024. A PS5 version is in development.
