Wuthering Waves' release date is coming soon and with it a whole lot of rewards. In this guide, we will go over all of the free rewards players will get at the launch of Wuthering Waves.

Wuthering Waves – All Free Launch Rewards

As with most newly launched games, Wuthering Waves will be rewarding its players with various rewards to help them out as they start their journey. These rewards vary, from in-game gacha currency to Credits used for upgrades, and more.

These rewards are the result of various online campaigns, such as the Pre-Registration Milestones, as well as the Social Media Follower Milestones. Thanks to the players' hard work, everyone will be able to enjoy these rewards.

Wuthering Waves Pre-Registration Milestones

Before the game's release, players were able to pre-register for the game's launch. As the name implies, there were milestones for players to meet, with the last reward locked behind 30 Million pre-registrations. Thankfully, we were able to meet all of the milestones, so we will be receiving the following rewards:

  • Lustrous Tide x20
  • Astrite x200
  • Sigil: En Route
  • Advanced Resonance Potion x10
  • Shell Credit x80,000

For those not familiar, Lustrous Tides are used to draw from the Novice, Permanent Character, and Permanent Weapon Banners, or as the game calls them, Convenes. This means players will immediately get 20 draws in total. Additionally, Astrites can be converted into various Tides (160 Astrites per Tide).

Sigils are the player's name cards, giving players the ability to personalize their name cards. Advanced Resonance Potions are used to level up Resonators, and Shell Credits are the Universal Currency in the game.

All of these rewards are available for free, and can be claimed from the player's in-game mailbox starting on May 23, 2024, at 7:00 PM PDT.

Social Media Follower Milestones

As a reward for all of the Wuthering Waves social media pages reaching a total of 5 million followers, players will also be able to get a Weapon Box that contains a 4-Star Rangers' Series Weapon. Players can choose what weapon they want to select from the box.

Here are the player's options for the Weapon Box (Rank 1 effects shown):

  • Dauntless Evernight (Broadsword)
