Wuthering Waves 2.8 Update: New Characters and Events

Kuro Games already mentioned they’ll be doing a special broadcast soon, talking about the next update, that’s the Wuthering Waves 2.8 livestream. It’s planned for November 14, 2025, around 7 PM (UTC+8). At that time, the devs are said to share all sorts of things about version 2.8, maybe new characters, a few weapons, banners, story bits, and other stuff too.

Wuthering Waves 2.8 livestream expected announcements

Wuthering Waves Version 2.8 will probably bring two new characters. The first one is a 5-star Havoc unit called Chisa. The other one is a 4-star Electro unit called Buling. Players will probably see their gameplay and abilities during the Wuthering Waves 2.8 livestream, including expected announcements.

Chisa seems to be an important character in the story and fighting, while Buling could add some new Electro strategies for Rovers to try. People are expecting the livestream to show moves, combos, and maybe some interactions with other characters.

Chisa’s Signature Weapon

Because Chisa is a 5-star, she will get her own signature weapon. The developers already said she uses a Broadblade. Beta leaks hint that the big scissor in her splash art might be her weapon in-game, too. This weapon will probably be both stylish and useful for fighting, giving new combos and abilities. During the Wuthering Waves 2.8 livestream expected announcements, we might see how this weapon works in battle, how it fits with team setup, and maybe some new skills.

Banner Lineup Expected

According to leaks, 2.8 banners might come in two phases:

1. Phase I

• Chisa (5-star)
• Phoebe (5-star)
• Taoqi (4-star)
• Yuanwu (4-star)
• Aalto (4-star)

2. Phase II

• Phrolova (5-star)
• Cantarella (5-star)
• Buling (4-star)
• Danjin (4-star)
• Chixia (4-star)

Wuthering Waves Version 2.8 New Area: Honami City

One of the things that got people really waiting is the new area, Honami City. The Wuthering Waves 2.8 livestream is supposed to show off a few visuals, some landmarks, maybe even bits of what players can do inside it. The place might bring some new exploration zones, extra story lines, or a bit of puzzle stuff, too. With that, two new main quests are also said to come. Leaks have been telling these could explain more about Chisa, maybe what role she truly plays around the world. Players might see those cinematic scenes, a few dialogues, and some lore that ties into older things.

Much like the Wuthering Waves Lollo Campaign Ice Savior Event, which offered story-driven gameplay and special rewards, this new update might expand the narrative further while giving players more to explore and enjoy.

Zani’s New Outfit

Version 2.8 might also bring a new outfit for Zani. It will be in the in-game shop, and its rarity could affect how easy it is to get. The livestream will probably show its design, effects, and maybe animations, so players can see before deciding to get it.

Upcoming Events

Rovers can expect some events in 2.8. One is likely the 7-day login event giving Lustrous Tides and Radiant Tides. Also, Tactical Simulacra, a previous popular combat event, may return. These events are supposed to give rewards, challenges, and ways to stay active in-game. The Wuthering Waves 2.8 livestream expected announcements might talk about clarifying schedules, rewards, and how to do them efficiently.

The Wuthering Waves 2.8 livestream expected announcements are an important event for Rovers, showing what the next update will bring. From Chisa’s Broadblade weapon to exploring Honami City, there is much to look forward to. Fans probably want to watch the livestream to get all the details, plan for banners, and prepare for events. With so many new features, story quests, characters, and events, version 2.8 is expected to add more excitement and strategies for players. The broadcast will likely clarify most leaks and give Rovers a chance to see everything firsthand before the update release.
