While specific details surrounding the characters and mechanics of this collaboration remain scarce, it has been confirmed that iconic characters from Night City will make an appearance in the world of Solaris. This opens the door for fan-favorite Edgerunners characters to become playable in Wuthering Waves in the future.
Among the most popular characters, Lucy is expected to play a pivotal role in the collaboration. Additionally, due to their popularity and relevance, David and Rebecca are likely to be included in the Wuwa character lineup as well. Given their participation in the Cyberpunk: Edgerunners event, it’s reasonable to anticipate they will be introduced as 5-star characters, adding an extra layer of excitement for fans eager to explore their abilities designed for the Solaris universe.
As of now, the only confirmed detail about this collaboration event is its launch set for 2026. Interestingly, the New Federation, known for its advanced technology, is a significant nation within Wuthering Waves. It is one of the few nations alongside Huanglong and Rinascita, with features expected to release soon. Given that both Cyberpunk: Edgerunners and Wuthering Waves share futuristic themes, the collaboration could potentially follow the launch of the New Federation.
