Wuthering Waves 3.6: two resonators and a real technical overhaul

Update 3.6 of Wuthering Waves, titled "Lamplight in Mirage, Sword's Resolve in Heart", doesn't just add two heads to the roster (even though that's already quite something). It touches the game's engine itself, and that's what should really interest PC players.

On the playable content front, Qingxiao and Jingran arrive via dedicated banners, accompanied by two signature weapons (Glint of Clouds, Thousandfold Deliverance) and their respective cosmetic accessories. Nothing new in the gacha formula, but the combat content follows suit: a new Echo Calamity Effigy, a new Phantom Echo and a new Tactical Hologram "Myriad Snare: Rustfire Chassis" add complexity to fights for players looking to optimize their builds.

The real structural change lies elsewhere. Kuro Games announces a switch to NVIDIA DLSS 4.5 Frame Generation on PC, meant to improve framerate while reducing visual artifacts and ghosting - an issue regularly pointed out since the game's launch. At the same time, the studio has changed the programming language used internally to improve performance across all supported platforms, a rather rare piece of groundwork to see mentioned so directly in patch notes.

On the quality-of-life side, Echo management gains in precision (equipment recommendations, previews, build suggestions based on the chosen plan), and the mailbox is bumped up to 200 messages with a collect-all function to avoid accidental deletions. A small detail, but the kind of detail that's been annoying players for months when it's missing.
