It features a main character and an overworld to explore, but as you play the game and pull on banners, you will get new characters added to your roster. As we’ve seen from trailers, combat is fast and fluid, showing off characters with flashy moves and the ability to switch between them in combat.
It appears there are a lot of systems present in Wuthring Waves that could be seen as similar to Genshin, especially when it comes to pulling on character and weapon banners, both of which have a fixed drop rate. You need a special currency and you can do one pull or a ten pull. There is a pity system in Wuthering Waves that will guarantee you a five-star, and so on. While Wuthering Waves may look more or less identical to the likes of Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail, it will be interesting to see if it can bring something new and fresh to the gacha scene.
