Wuthering Waves hack: Players unlock secret character early

May 24, 2024 11:15 AM

Wuthering Waves players have discovered a bug where they can access an unreleased five-star character, Yinlin, by changing the date on their devices. This unexpected loophole allows players to experience Yinlin’s character trail ahead of its official release. While this exploit doesn’t seem to affect other game content, it raises questions about potential future exploits and the integrity of the game’s client-side operations. Kuro Games is expected to address this bug soon to maintain game balance and fairness.

Can you get banned for using the Wuthering Waves date-change exploit?

There is a risk of getting banned if you use this exploit. It’s best to avoid trying it, as it would be easy for the developers to track and penalize those who exploit it based on completion stats.

For some context, Wuthering Waves is an open-world action gacha game from Kuro Games. Since its recent launch, players have been exploring its vast world and complex mechanics. However, the game has had a rocky start with various bugs and performance issues, which the developers are actively working to fix.

It’s always tempting to try out unreleased content early, but exploiting bugs like this can undermine the game's integrity and lead to bans. Best to steer clear and wait for Yinlin’s official release to keep the community fair and balanced.

It's crazy how players always find these sneaky tricks, but exploiting bugs like this can really mess up the game's balance and ruin the fun for everyone. Better to play it safe and wait for Yinlin's official release—Kuro Games will likely patch it up soon anyway.

It’s pretty wild how players found a way to get an unreleased character early, but using the date-change exploit could definitely land you in hot water with Kuro Games. Best to enjoy Wuthering Waves as intended and let the devs patch things up to keep everything fair and square.
