Announcement on Game Experience Issues and Ongoing Optimization

Dear Drifters,

Since the launch of “Wuthering Waves”, we have received numerous feedback from players regarding game experience issues. We deeply apologize for not providing a better gaming experience. We will address these issues through upcoming updates to improve the game content. As a token of our apology, we will distribute additional compensation on May 25 at 10:00 (UTC+8):

✦ Compensation: 10 Radiant Tide
✦ Eligibility: Players who created a character before July 3 at 03:59 (UTC+8) and have a Union Level ≥2

In addition to ongoing performance optimizations, here are specific adjustments and future development priorities:

(1) Optimization of Skip Function

To address feedback regarding “limited skip options, unclear skip button display, and lengthy main storyline,” we will:

1. Modify the [Skip] button icon.
2. Significantly expand the skip range of the main storyline, including skipping the prologue and the first act.
3. Support skipping stationary dialogues.
4. Open Resonator [Yinlin]’s Companion Tasks soon.
   • Due to technical limitations, skipping cutscenes in the storyline is currently not feasible. We appreciate your understanding!

(2) Optimization of Combat Experience

To improve combat experience based on feedback about weak hit feedback, poor controller mode experience, and vision obstruction during battles, we will:

• Conduct specialized optimizations for various combat scenarios to enhance positive feedback during combat.
• Improve controller functions and address issues with delayed customization options.

(3) Thank You Gift: Selectable Permanent 5-Star Character

In response to feedback on the [New Player Summon Event], we apologize for the unsatisfactory experience. On May 26 at 10:00 (UTC+8), we will send a special item, [Tide Sound Thank You Ticket], to all players via mail. This can be used to obtain a selectable permanent 5-star character. The event is valid until May 22, 2025, at 11:59 (UTC+8). Please refer to the in-game announcement for detailed rules.

(4) Ongoing Development of More Optimizations and Version Content

We will continue to optimize game content and develop new features and events, such as:

1. Enhancing some NPC art resources.
2. Adding a layered map feature.
3. Introducing more Resonator transformation gameplay.

We are aware that “Wuthering Waves” still has many areas for improvement. We will continue to refine the game content and experience. Thank you again for all your attention and support!

Sincerely,
Wuthering Waves Operations Team
