**Wuthering Waves employs a 3-unit combat system with a design focus on swapping between them at beneficial times ** during battle to maximize their synergies. It’s not ground-breaking, but the implementation is excellent – slowly building up a charge bar while using abilities and properly timing dodges allows players to then swap into a new unit that has an immediate effect upon entering the battlefield. We didn’t get a chance to really examine what those abilities are, but they seem to range from doing damage to setting up better positioning for a new skill in
Jianxin: Jianxin is a character that gives the good description of jack of all trades, master of none, being a hybrid character who balances support and damage roles, offering diverse team benefits. She excels in sustain, making her quite useful in overworld content combined with her AoE attacks that are excellent for defeating weaker groups of enemies. However, her versatility is both a strength and a weakness. Jianxin requires a lot of field time, making her not the best teammate for most of the existing primary DPS characters. She is prone to interruptions, struggles with high energy costs, and lacks the damage output needed for endgame content. Generally, for players who are interested in completing the story, exploring the world, and farm in overworld, over tackling end game content as of now, she is an excellent pick. Priority:
The last innovation in combat is Wuthering Waves ‘ echo system, which is sort of a blend between traditional equipment-based abilities and a creature collecting game. Players can collect the Echoes of enemies they defeat in the game and then equip them to a character (one per unit), which in turn provides stat bonuses and the ability to transform into that echo during a battle to briefly call upon their abilities. We defeated a boss, equipped their Echo, and then used it in the next battle to great effect; it was also pretty cool to occupy the body of an enemy that was fun to fight just minutes bef
While the environment and scenery are visually fairly indistinct from what we saw, they were interesting enough, with materials to gather, enemies to defeat, and puzzles to solve. We played through a brief logic puzzle that was just above the boss fight demo, and it was a Tetris block-style conundrum that was a fun distraction. Obviously, one puzzle isn’t enough to judge an entire SLG game heroes‘s worth of open world content so it’s mostly speculation at this point, but based on other closed beta impressions/streams it **looks like the world of Wuthering Waves will have more than enough on offer to keep people interested in its early days
While attending the Game Developers Conference 2024, Screen Rant was able to participate in a hands-on demonstration of a newer build of Wuthering Waves . Following a brief demonstration of mechanics from a member of the Kuro Games team, we were able to play through a brief combat section against a boss, an open-world puzzle, and some exploration of one of the game’s settlements. Make no mistake: this game is unabashedly attempting to capitalize on the space Genshin Impact carved out for the genre years ago. But it does it well enough that it feels like it has its own identity,

While combat was a showcase of improvements and innovations, the brief amount of open world traversal/hub navigation available in the hands-on indicates that Wuthering Waves exploration will be a solid bedrock of what already works in the genre. Grappling hooks, gliders, and sprinting were all options, and each was implemented smoothly. There’s also a parkour system that lets characters run up walls/cliffsides, which is a nice touch and an improvement on the slow climb other titles tend to h
