Wuthering Waves Announces Crossover with Cyberpunk: Edgerunners

It’s not uncommon for gacha games to team up with popular franchises to launch limited playable characters. Players might remember how Genshin Impact partnered with Sony’s Horizon series to bring Aloy into the game. Similarly, Honkai: Star Rail is collaborating with Fate/Stay Night, with multiple leaks suggesting the playable debuts of Archer and Saber in HoYoverse’s RPG. It seems now it will be Wuthering Waves‘ turn to join forces with Netflix’s hit series next. Both Kuro Games and Cyberpunk: Edgerunners producers have assured fans that more details about the collaboration are on their way.

The reveal of Wuthering Waves and Cyberpunk: Edgerunners‘ crossover comes amidst recent reports about Cyberpunk 2077‘s sequel, Project Orion, and its potential multiplayer features. Fans of the spin-off anime have been wondering whether the sequel could connect with Lucy and David’s story. However, with a collaboration with Kuro Games on the table, it seems CD Projekt Red might take a different approach. Regardless, Wuthering Waves players can look forward to Version 2.3 on April 29, which coincides with the game’s debut on Steam as well.
