In a recent 20-minute broadcast, developer and publisher Kuro Game announced that the open-world action RPG Wuthering Waves will launch globally on May 22nd for iOS, Android, and PC via the Epic Games Store and direct download through their official website, where pre-orders are live now. Sadly, PlayStation 5 and 4 players will have to wait further for its console release.

Check out the most recent trailer, which features gorgeous scenery and buttery smooth combat.

In case you haven’t heard of it yet, Wuthering Waves is a free-to-play open-world action RPG with gacha mechanics, similar to HoYoverse’s Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail.

Wuthering Waves Overview

Welcome aboard, roving voyager.

Upon the shores lay the silent embers of a world during the Ebb Tide.

But they strike back, strong enough to penetrate the silence.

Humanity has risen anew from the ashes of the apocalypse.

And you, Rover, are poised for an adventure of Awakening.

Companions to meet, enemies to conquer, new powers to gain, hidden truths to unveil, and unseen spectacles to behold… A vast world of endless possibilities awaits. The choice rests in your hands. Be the answer, be the leader, and follow the sounds to arrive at a new future.

As Wuthering Waves echo endlessly, mankind set sail on a new journey.

Rise and embark on your odyssey, Rover.
