Wuthering Waves announces Phoebe and Brant as the next 5-Star Rinascita characters for Version 2.1. Early speculation, based on in-game lore, suggests Phoebe may be a Spectro unit and Brant a sword-wielding character. Both are expected to feature prominently in future updates. Additional characters, including Zani, are also anticipated.
The highly anticipated Version 2.0 update introduced significant content, including a new story chapter, the Rinascita system, and new explorable areas. The 5-Star Glacio unit Carlotta (Pistol wielder) is currently featured alongside Zhezhi until January 23rd, followed by Roccia (Havoc unit). While Version 2.0 is still ongoing, developer Kuro Games has confirmed Phoebe and Brant's arrival in Version 2.1 via official Twitter announcements. Phoebe is likely to debut in Phase 1, with Brant following in Phase 2. While their weapon types and elements remain unconfirmed, their roles in the storyline provide strong hints.
Confirmed Upcoming Characters:
- Phoebe: 5-Star, likely Spectro
- Brant: 5-Star, likely sword wielder
According to Wuthering Waves' backstory, Phoebe is a dedicated Acolyte of the Order of the Deep within Rinascita, while Brant leads the Fool's Troupe, a traveling Carnevale show. Both are anticipated to play crucial roles in subsequent updates. Zani remains the only unannounced Rinascita character. Rumors of further additions exist, but official confirmation is pending.
Version 2.0 is slated to conclude around mid-February. In addition to new characters, this update includes a premium skin for Jinhsi and a free Sanhua skin obtainable through an event starting January 23rd.
