| Wuthering Waves Version 3.3 Reverbs From the End of Galaxies launches April 30, 2026, bringing new characters, areas, and six crossover collaborations to mark the game's second anniversary. |
Kuro Games has officially pulled back the curtain on its biggest update yet. Wuthering Waves Version 3.3, titled "Reverbs From the End of Galaxies," is launching on April 30, 2026, and it’s bringing more than just a few new characters. This is a full-blown celebration across iOS, Android, PC, and PS5, marking the game’s second anniversary with one of the most packed content drops in its history.
If you’ve been taking a break from Solaris-3, now might be the perfect time to dust off your terminal. Between a massive new underground zone, a motorbike that can now fly, and a lineup of crossovers that reads like a pop culture fever dream, Version 3.3 is shaping up to be an unmissable event.
Two New 5-Star Resonators Join the Roster
Let’s start with the stars of the show: the new characters. Version 3.3 introduces two brand-new 5-Star Resonators, each headlining their own phase of the update.
- Phase 1 (April 30): First up is Hiyuki, a fiery new DPS whose playstyle revolves around rapid, high-temperature strikes. According to details highlighted on the official PlayStation Blog, Hiyuki’s banner goes live on day one, accompanied by reruns for Mornye and Iuno. She also brings her signature weapon, the Frostburn—an ironic name for a blade that seems to melt everything it touches.
- Phase 2 (May 21): Following two weeks later is Denia, a more tactical resonator focused on area control and sustained damage. Denia’s arrival will be joined by reruns for Chisa and Phrolova. If you’re looking to complete her kit, you’ll want to pull her signature weapon, Forged Dwarf Star, from the weapon banner.
Dimmr Plains: A Vertical Underground Wonderland
Beyond the new faces, Version 3.3 significantly expands the world map with Dimmr Plains, an entirely underground section tucked beneath the Bjartr Woods. This isn't just another flat field of grass and enemies. Dimmr Plains is built entirely around vertical traversal, featuring floating platforms, bioluminescent forests, and deep chasms that require some serious parkour skills to navigate.
The area also introduces a new weekly boss and the Tactical Hologram: Sigillum combat challenge, which promises to test even the most hardened end-game teams.
To help you get around this treacherous terrain, Kuro Games is giving the Expedition Motorbike a major upgrade: a new Aerial Mode. Yes, you read that right. Your bike can now briefly take to the air, letting you glide between floating platforms and scout the caverns from above. It’s easily the coolest traversal tool added since the game’s launch.
Six Wild Crossovers (Yes, Including Angry Birds)
To celebrate the second anniversary, Kuro Games is going absolutely wild with collaborations. Six separate crossover events are planned for Version 3.3, covering everything from horror to volleyball to… bird-flinging physics.
The full list includes:
- Resident Evil
- Angry Birds
- Haikyuu!!
- Kaiju No. 8
- Pragmata (Capcom’s long-awaited sci-fi title)
- Riders Republic
Most of these collaborations are tied to Expedition Motorbike liveries and accessories, meaning you’ll be able to cruise around Dimmr Plains on a bike painted like a slingshot star or adorned with Kaiju No. 8’s defense force logos. It’s bizarre, unexpected, and exactly the kind of chaotic energy a second anniversary needs.

40 Free Pulls & Anniversary Login Rewards
Of course, what’s a gacha anniversary without some generous freebies? Kuro Games is offering 40 free pulls across the various Version 3.3 events, plus an exclusive title, outfit accessories, and special anniversary login rewards.
Here’s the breakdown:
- Immediately after the April 30 update: All players who log in will receive 20 Radiant Tides and 10 Crystal Solvents directly via in-game mail.
- May 23: A second wave of login rewards will go live, adding even more tides and materials to your inventory.
Limited-Time Codes (Expiring April 18!)
If you missed the Version 3.3 preview livestream on April 17, don’t worry—you still have a chance to grab the three codes released during the show. However, you need to act fast.
According to the developer, the following codes will remain active only until April 18:
FACEALEPH1
2NDANNIVERSARY
EVERSHINE
Redeem these immediately in the game’s settings menu for extra Astrites and other goodies before they expire.
What’s Next? Xbox Release & A World Tour
Looking beyond Version 3.3, Kuro Games has confirmed that Wuthering Waves is officially coming to Xbox Series X|S in July 2026. This marks the first time the game will be available on a Microsoft console, expanding its reach even further.
Additionally, the studio announced a world tour concert series called “To the New World,” which will visit Shanghai, Tokyo, Seoul, Taipei, Singapore, and Los Angeles later this year. Expect live orchestral performances of the game’s hauntingly beautiful soundtrack.
Final Verdict: Is It Time to Come Back?
Look, I’ll be honest. I took a long break from Wuthering Waves myself. The daily grind can wear on you, and other games start calling your name. But an anniversary update with 40 free pulls, a flying motorbike, and a Resident Evil crossover? That’s the kind of ridiculous, over-the-top content that pulls you back in.
Overall, Wuthering Waves is still a fantastic game and remains a surprisingly smooth experience on mobile. I had a great time with it on my Honor X9b, and after this long break, an update of this sheer scale might be exactly what it takes to pull me back into the Steam version. See you in Dimmr Plains.
