What to Expect from Storm Waves
The gameplay of Wuthering Waves is said to be similar to Tower of Fantasy and Genshin Impact, both of which are open world games. However, the former has the disadvantage of having loot box-like mechanics that can be farmed or purchased with premium currency. On the other hand, Genshin Impact monetizes its beauty store heavily. It remains to be seen whether the new game will boast similar features.
Wuthering Waves stands out for its heavy focus on movement mechanics such as wall running, sliding, grappling, and grappling. They add a varied element to open world exploration.
The game's standout feature is the Echo system, where defeating monsters will result in them dropping collectibles known as Echoes that offer special abilities. They can be used to power up your character, or "Resonators" as they're called in the game.
