Wuthering Waves Unveils Phoebe and Brant as Upcoming 5-Star Rinascita Characters
Version 2.1 of Wuthering Waves will introduce two new 5-Star Rinascita characters: Phoebe and Brant. While their specific weapon types and elements remain unconfirmed, lore suggests Phoebe will be a Spectro unit, and Brant a sword wielder. Both are expected to feature prominently in future updates.
Following the successful launch of Version 2.0, which included the 5-Star Glacio pistol-wielding Carlotta (currently featured in a banner alongside Zhezhi until January 23rd) and the upcoming Havoc unit Roccia, the reveal of Phoebe and Brant generates significant excitement. The phased rollout suggests Phoebe's banner will likely appear in Version 2.1's first phase, with Brant following in the second.
Developer Kuro Games' official announcements confirm these additions. Players have already encountered both characters within the game's narrative, hinting at their roles and potential abilities. Phoebe, an Acolyte of the Order of the Deep, is described as devout yet joyful. Brant, captain of the Fool's Troupe (a traveling Carnevale show), maintains a relaxed exterior while prioritizing his troupe's safety. Their inclusion further expands the Rinascita roster, with only Zani remaining to be added to the playable characters.
Version 2.0, slated to conclude around mid-February, also includes a premium skin for Jinhsi and a free Sanhua skin obtainable through an upcoming event starting January 23rd. Further unannounced characters are rumored for the 2.0 cycle.
