Hey Rovers! The moon's calling us back to Rinascita, and I'm absolutely buzzing about Phase 2 of Wuthering Waves 2.6 dropping on September 17, 2025! As a day-one Rover who's seen every update unfold, this phase feels like Kuro Games handed us a treasure map where every 'X' marks an actual spot loaded with goodies. The air in Rinascita is about to get a lot more... breezy, if you catch my drift with the new banners! Let me break down everything you need to know to make the most of this lunar-infused update.

📖 Main Story: Chapter II, Act IX - By Moon's Fated Light
The narrative thickens! We're diving back into the main quest in Rinascita. No specific spoilers here, but if the title is any indication, we're in for some fateful, moonlit revelations. The story in Wuthering Waves never fails to hook me deeper than an anchor in the ocean's abyss.

💎 Final Thoughts & Tips for 2026 Rovers
As we look ahead in 2026, Phase 2 of 2.6 sets a fantastic precedent for content density. Here's my personal game plan:
-
Pull Strategy: I'm going all-in for Ciaccona with my saved Astrite. The 4-star lineup is also fantastic for constellations.
-
Resource Priority: The daily login and Moonlit Revelation events are non-negotiable. The free pulls and exclusive icon are must-haves.
-
Farming Focus: I'll use the first week for story and events, then save my stamina for the Echo Double Drop week in October. Efficiency is key!
This phase isn't just an update; it's a carefully wrapped gift to the community. The blend of new characters, story progression, and generous events feels as satisfying as solving a complex puzzle where every piece clicks perfectly into place. See you all under Rinascita's fated moonlight, Rovers! 🌙✨
