Rovers in Wuthering Waves

Wuthering Waves features a huge and expansive world that players can explore as they unlock new Resonators, raise their Union Level, and participate in seasonal events.

Kuro Games planned a short main campaign to tell the story behind Huanglong, but they’ve confirmed that there will be more quests added as versions go by.

If you want to know how long it will take you to beat Wuthering Waves, you’ve come to the right place. Here’s a full list of the game’s main quests, including all side quests, tutorial tasks, and companion stories that have appeared in version 1.0.
