Wuthering Waves Iuno Release Date Confirm, Banner Coming September 17

Players of Wuthering Waves, who were waiting very long for Iuno, now finally get the official confirmation of her coming. Developer Kuro Games has already shown the full schedule for Version 2.6's second half, where this much-anticipated five-star Resonator is going to appear on September 17, 2025. She is called the Priestess of Septimont, and many communities already consider her one of the most awaited characters in recent updates, not only because of her ability to fight but also her importance in the growing story.

Together with her release, the update also brings her own exclusive weapon, Moongazer’s Sigil, a gauntlet made to fit exactly her play style and push her strength higher. Like other banners, Iuno does not come at the same time for all players worldwide. Instead, event roll-out depends on the regional server clock, so players in Asia, Europe, and America each see the banner open at 10:00 a.m. local server time according to their zone.

This kind of staggered release helps every region to experience the launch more smoothly and avoid overload on the server, but it also means global players cannot start at the same time. For this reason, the countdown is already available inside the game client, showing clearly how many days and hours remain until the Iuno banner starts on each server. Once the banner is finally live, the event will stay active for around three weeks, giving players a limited but fair chance to summon Iuno and also pull her signature weapon before the banner ends and closes again.

Wuthering Waves Iuno Release Date & Time For All Servers

The developer of Wuthering Waves has already listed the release timing carefully for each server region. Iuno banner starts at 10:00 a.m. server time, but since servers have different time zones, the release feels a little different for every player.

• Asia and SEA servers (UTC+8): Here, Iuno comes first, September 17 at 10:00 a.m.
• European servers (UTC+1): Same day, but later on their own server clock, 10:00 a.m. also.
• American servers (UTC-5): They will get the banner last, still at 10:00 a.m. server time.

The countdown option inside the game client shows the exact wait time, so nobody is confused. After release, the banner will stay active until October 8, 2025, 11:59 a.m. server time, meaning three weeks total chance to summon both Iuno and her gear.

This way of updating is not new, because Kuro Games usually divides one version into two parts. The second half often keeps the bigger and important characters, so Iuno follows the same path.

Wuthering Waves Iuno Banner Details

In the second half of Version 2.6, not only does Iuno appear. Her banner also carries three four-star Resonators. Player can pull:

• Aalto (Aero, Pistols)
• Baizhi (Glacio, Rectifier)
• Taoqi (Havoc, Broadblade)

Community is already talking about these choices. Baizhi is considered a nice support healer, good especially if the player does not own a stronger unit like Shorekeeper. Aalto is more like sub-DPS, okay, but not the best investment for the long run. Taoqi, however, is often viewed as one of the weakest characters, so many are not happy to see her in the banner again.

Same time, a weapon event will run. It focuses on Iuno’s five-star gauntlet, Moongazer’s Sigil, which is clearly her best weapon. The other four-star weapons that rotate in the banner include:

• Celestial Spirit (Gauntlet)
• Relativistic Jet (Pistol)
• Fusion Accretion (Rectifier)

So, players can either aim for the exclusive gauntlet or try to fill the gap in the arsenal with other pieces. Hype around the Iuno banner is already high. Because she is Priestess of Septimont, her story's importance also attracts attention, not only her battle ability. Many see her as the next main figure in the narrative arc, so demand for her will be strong.

For strategy, players need to decide if they should spend resources now or save for the future. An event lasting three weeks allows enough thinking time. Some recommend pulling if the team needs strong support with hybrid skills, others suggest waiting for Version 2.7 reveal before spending premium currency.

The focus of Version 2.6's second half is no doubt Iuno and her arrival. Still, part of the community is already curious about what Kuro Games brings in Version 2.7, since the pattern of continuous Resonator release is likely to continue. For now, the countdown is going on. On September 17, 2025, Iuno will enter the roster, and players can try to obtain both her and her weapon until October 8. After that, the banner closes, and the chance is gone until maybe rerun later.
