Wuthering Waves has confirmed that the game will launch on Steam on April 29, and players can already add it to their Wishlist. In its first year, Wuthering Waves has progressively extended its availability on different platforms while increasing in popularity.

Kuro Games' hit open-world RPG Wuthering Waves was first launched in May 2024 for PC and mobile devices. Although its mobile debut faced some serious performance issues, the game quickly became popular among fans because of its fast-paced gameplay and high-quality graphics. Later, in January 2025, Wuthering Waves officially landed on PS5 consoles with the release of Version 2.0. Now, Wuthering Waves is preparing for Version 2.2, and the developers have confirmed its debut on yet another platform.

Why Wuthering Waves Fans Should Try Zenless Zone Zero

Wuthering Waves' futuristic and post-apocalyptic setting and immersive combat is definitely reminiscent of Zenless Zone Zero.

As confirmed by Kuro Games, Wuthering Waves is landing on Steam on April 29, during the second phase of its upcoming 2.2 update. The RPG is already listed on Steam and players can add it to their Wishlist now. The developer stated that Wuthering Waves' Steam version will support "seamless data-sharing across PS5, PC, and mobile devices". However, per the game's Steam page, players will be required to have a Kuro Games account to play. Fans can link their Steam account to their Kuro Games one as well. The RPG is already available for PC through its official website or the Epic Games Store, but a Steam debut could attract both new and veteran players. Moreover, the launch could also help Wuthering Waves set itself apart from its rival Genshin Impact, which has never been added to Steam.

Wuthering Waves hasn't confirmed if it will support Steam Achievements yet, but its Steam page will likely be updated in the coming weeks. Version 2.2 is scheduled to launch on March 27, and with it will come a new main quest, explorable areas, and characters. Wuthering Waves has also confirmed Cantarella's release for the update's first phase. Cantarella is a 5-star Rectifier unit with a Havoc attribute, and she is rumored to be a solid sub-DPS. Along with Cantarella, Aero Rover is also debuting in the game, with their kit potentially obtainable by progressing through the story.

While Wuthering Waves Version 2.2 is expected to add a ton of content, players are already looking forward to the game's 2.3 update, as it will coincide with the game's first anniversary. Fans are also wondering when Wuthering Waves will release Zani and other Rinascita characters like Cartethyia and Ciaccona.
