Jan 9, 2025Version 2.0 is a momentous occasion for Kuro Games' open-world action RPG, and it's worth jumping back in for the new story and content.

Jan 8, 2025Wuthering Waves is launching on the PS5 at the perfect time, as its new quests are action packed and its improvements over the likes of Genshin Impact are obvious to appreciate. Its story is unfortunately infested with the worst of gacha game writing, so you’ll need a strong stomach to get through the abundance of proper nouns. But stick with it and you’ll find a beautiful, anime-inspired experience with quality combat, rewarding team building, and hundreds of hours of excellent exploration.

Jun 3, 2024By wanting to compete with Genshin Impact, Kuro Games took everything that made the HoYoverse title successful... sometimes even too much. Whether in its structure, its content and even its interface, everything is reminiscent of the king of gacha. However, it tries to stand out on certain points such as its more advanced action gameplay than its rivals, but also its elegant artistic direction which could turn some people over. Unfortunately, it's difficult to enjoy the experience properly because of this failed French translation. In summary, Wuthering Waves has some arguments to convince those disappointed with Genshin Impact, but it remains to be seen whether it will succeed in demonstrating a follow-up as exemplary as that of HoYoverse productions.

Jan 8, 2025Both for the care with which the game world is created and for the quantity of content, Wuthering Waves struggles to compete with the market giants it tries to imitate. Net of some qualitative oscillations, however, the possibility of completely skipping the story and enjoying a very fun combat system within a darker context than that of Genshin Impact could be more than valid reasons to at least give it a chance.
