WuWa 3.3 Anniversary Banner: Hiyuki & Denia Drip Marketing

 

Hello, Rovers! As Wuthering Waves approaches what many expect to be the Version 3.3 (2nd Anniversary) patch, a new wave of leaks/rumors is suggesting we could get one of the most stacked banner lineups in the game’s history.

This post summarizes what the video claims about 3.3 banners, including two new 5-star characters and a possible anniversary-style rerun banner featuring up to 10 returning 5-stars.

*Note: This Article is based on information currently available from online sources. Please treat everything here as tentative and refer to the official Wuthering Waves announcements.

 

Wuthering Waves 3.3 Release Date

Following the general update pattern of Wuthering Waves, Version 3.3 is expected to meet Rovers on April 29, 2026.

 

Wuthering Waves 3.3 Banners Overview

The banner schedule for Version 3.3 is now largely clear: the version will be divided into two phases, each featuring a brand-new limited 5★ character and their corresponding exclusive weapon banner.

Phase I
New!	Rerun	Rerun
Hiyuki  Glacio, Sword	Mornye  Fusion, Broadblade	Iuno  Aero, Gauntlets
Phase II
New!	Rerun	Rerun
Denia    Fusion, Rectifier	Phrolova  Havoc, Rectifier	Chisa  Havoc, Broadblade

 

Wuthering Waves 3.3 New Characters

Phase 1: Hiyuki

Beyond the hype around new characters, Version 3.3’s story is also shaping up to be a must-watch. There are growing hints that the 3.X narrative arc may shift into a more serious—possibly heart-wrenching—direction. The game’s voice director previously shared thoughts that strongly implied they had recorded for an emotionally impactful story segment, and the timing conveniently lines up with the production window for Version 3.3’s headline characters.

That tonal shift would fit perfectly with the Lahai-Roi region’s harsh setting, where social stratification and survival struggles are baked into the worldbuilding. If the developers are indeed building toward a heavier, more profound storyline, Hiyuki could be positioned not just as the First Half anniversary unit—but also as a key character tied to the emotional core of the patch.

Hiyuki is rumored to be a 5-star Glacio Sword charcter.

 

Phase 2: Denia

 

Another name has recently entered the Version 3.3 banner discussion: Denia. 

We don't know what Denia excatly looks now, the above gif image seems like her.

Players discovered her through Mornye’s voice lines, where she is mentioned directly despite never appearing in any official previews.

Looking back at Version 3.0, NPC dialogue around Startorch Academy already hinted at her existence, suggesting Kuro had been laying groundwork quietly.

From what we know so far, Denia is a third-year Startorch Academy student, a member of the Roya race, and an extremely energetic character who joined nearly every club on campus.

Leaks suggest she may be a small-bodied unit and potentially a Fusion Burst sub-DPS, possibly designed to support Aemeath teams.

 

Possible Rerun 

Based on the 1st anniversary reruns, some Rovers guess that this year we will have 10 reruns too, but now we have no exact characters info.

Conclusion

That's all the information on the Wuthering Waves Version 3.3 banners!

If even part of this rumored lineup is accurate, Wuthering Waves 3.3 could be one of the most pull-heavy patches we’ve seen—especially for players missing multiple limited 5★ Resonators.
