A game that keeps on giving! I play many characters in this and have been lucky 
enough to be asked back to do many more.

_**Wuthering Waves**_ is a free-to-play open-world action role-playing game developed
and published by [Kuro Games](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuro_Games). It was 
released on May 22, 2024.

Being an open-world _gacha_ game, _Wuthering Waves_ has been compared to other titles
of the genre such as _Genshin Impact_, but aims to place greater emphasis on its
combat system compared to its predecessors.

## Synopsis

_Wuthering Waves_ is set in a futuristic, post-apocalyptic world after a catastrophe
called the Lament wiped out most of humanity and caused unknown beings and monsters,
called Tacet Discords, to appear. Humanity adapted to the threat and over time rebuilt
civilization. The story follows the amnesiac Rover, who has awakened from a deep
slumber and sets out to explore this new world.
