A free 5-star Resonator and one of anime's most beloved characters arriving in the same update. That's the headline from Wuthering Waves this week, as Kuro Games officially confirmed the long-teased crossover with Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is landing in Version 3.4, projected to go live on June 8, 2026.
The collab was first hinted at during the Version 2.3 anniversary livestream, and the wait has clearly built up serious anticipation. Kuro Games revealed both Lucy and Rebecca as playable collaboration-exclusive 5-star Resonators through official social media posts, each character introduced with lines pulled straight from their anime personalities.
Rebecca is free, and that's a big deal
Here's the thing about gacha collabs: getting a free limited 5-star is genuinely rare. Kuro Games confirmed that Rebecca will be obtainable at no cost for players who participate in the collaboration event, which puts her in a very different category from most crossover characters who sit exclusively behind premium banners.
Lucy, by contrast, appears to be headlining her own limited collaboration banner. Kuro Games teased her arrival with the quote, "Don't make a name for yourself by how you live... but by how you die," which is exactly the kind of energy Edgerunners fans will recognize immediately.
Rebecca's reveal leaned into her chaotic, shoot-first personality with the line "C'mon, need to hit somethin'!" which tells you roughly what her combat style might look like. The community reaction has been loud and positive, particularly from players who have been hoping Edgerunners characters would eventually make it into the game.
David Martinez spotted, but don't get your hopes up yet
Eagle-eyed fans watching the collaboration trailer caught a brief appearance by David Martinez, the anime's protagonist, wearing his iconic yellow jacket while apparently gazing toward Solaris. Predictably, speculation kicked off immediately.
The key here is that David did not appear alongside Lucy and Rebecca in the scenes set at Startorch Academy, which is where the two confirmed playable characters were featured together. That's a meaningful absence. Current indications suggest his role is likely limited to story content or event appearances rather than a playable banner slot, though Kuro Games hasn't ruled anything out explicitly.
What this means for Version 3.4
Kuro Games has built a track record of making crossover events feel like full content drops rather than simple character imports. Their previous collaborations, including tie-ins with Punishing: Gray Raven and Devil May Cry, came with dedicated story quests, limited weapons, and themed cosmetics alongside the playable characters.
Expect Version 3.4 to follow that same pattern. The aesthetic fit between Night City's neon-soaked brutality and Wuthering Waves' sci-fi post-apocalyptic world is stronger than most crossovers manage, and the early teasers already lean hard into Edgerunners' visual identity. Full gameplay details for Lucy and Rebecca haven't been released yet, but those reveals are expected in the weeks leading up to June 8.
