While the main idea is to promote new in-game characters through the Gacha System, there’s a list of free characters in Wuthering Waves as well. For now, 7 free characters are waiting for you to claim them. They are scattered at certain points in the game where you have to do some tasks and unlock them for good. It is possible that you miss out on these characters and that’s why here’s a guide to help you unlock them.
How to Unlock All Free Characters in WuWa
Below you can find all the free characters along with the tasks that you must accomplish to unlock them:
