  1. Chisa, the new 5-star Havoc/Broadblade resonator in Wuthering Waves 2.8 patch notes, brings support and also heavy damage. Her scissor-to-chainsaw weapon can mark enemies, build up Havoc Bane stacks, and enable the team to hit harder. She can give a flexible mix of offence, defence, and utility with her healing capabilities and Kumokiri Broadblade, making her useful in events and normal gameplay too.
  2. Buling joins the ranks, too-She is a 4-star Electro/Rectifier resonator. Her skills will support, heal, and boost the damage of her teammates. She is characterised as a reserved personality with feng shui knowledge. Buling will be present in "Requiem Without End" and "Neptune's Lullaby." After the events, she will remain in the Featured and Standard Resonator Convenes and the Afterglow Coral Store.

New Weapon: Kumokiri

A new 5-star Broadblade called Kumokiri has been added. It comes with unique lore and strong combat abilities. Players can obtain it via the "Absolute Pulsation - Kumokiri" Featured Weapon Convene. Its design follows the game's theme related to time and structure, offering more options to experienced players.

Expanded Area: Chronorift Metropolis

Chronorift Metropolis was added in Wuthering Waves 2.8 and represents a city that has been overgrown by plants, partly submerged underwater. The once busy metropolis feels frozen in time, with phantom-like inhabitants repeating their routines. It can be explored in main quests and events as players discover its secrets and traverse flooded streets, overgrown towers, and hidden spots like Chisa's café base.

New Echoes, Storylines, and Sonata Effects Added new Echoes, including Nightmare variants: Roseshroom, Tick Tack, and Dwarf Cassowary. Thread of Severed Fate: A new Sonata effect that gives extra Havoc Bane and Resonance Liberation damage in a 3-piece set. Added story content: Main quests "Stagnant Dawn on Wastelands" and "Flowing Starlight in the Iris" are permanently available. These quests focus on character development, especially Chisa.
