Developer Kuro Games has recently revealed in a developer post the upcoming details for Wuthering Waves 1.2 “In the Turquoise Moonglow”. The release date is still officially unknown, but with the ending of “Thaw of Eons” being on August 15, it can be expected to be released around that time.
A Free 5-Star Resonator
Great news for those who haven’t received a 5-star yet! Everyone will receive the 5-Star Resonator Xiangli Yao for free during the second half of Version 1.2. The character was revealed previously as “Huaxu Academy’s Principal Investigator. [He] is known to display exceptional expertise in various research fields despite his young age. He is a gentle yet rational soul, embracing unique insights and commitment to the research of Automata Mechanics.”

Lack a Pistol-weapon character or don’t have time to switch to one for challenges like the Photonvault? In Version 1.2, you’ll be able to use the new Hoverdroid: Shooter Utility.

A new feature to store excess Waveplates will be introduced in Version 1.2. Once you reach the Waveplate cap, you will receive Waveplate Crystals instead. These Crystals can be exchanged for Waveplates of equivalent value. You will regenerate 1 Waveplate Crystal every 12 minutes, up to 480 Waveplate Crystals. Once this limit is reached, you will not gain additional Waveplate Crystals.
Custom Lock-on
Version 1.1 introduced several quality-of-life improvements to the auto lock-on system, including optimizations for Resonators and some Echo skills. With Wuthering Waves 1.2, you’ll gain access to the new Custom Lock-On feature under Settings – Control. This option allows you to set the auto lock-on priorities for enemies based on your combat preferences.
New Resonator Showcase Feature
You can now view and display the Convene scenes of unlocked Resonators with the Resonator Showcase feature. Simply tap the avatar on the Terminal screen to open the Resonator Showcase. You can display up to 3 selected Resonators here.
120 FPS Option
PC players, you’re in luck! The 120 FPS option will be available on select PC devices in Version 1.2.
Kuro Games ended their developers note by saying, “We’re well aware that many aspects of Wuthering Waves still have room for improvement, and we’re committed to listening to your feedback to continually optimize and enhance the game.
