Wuthering Waves 3.6 events are packed with free rewards that every Rover should clear before Version 3.6 ends on September 30, 2026. This version has six events covering combat, co-op, exploration, music, and daily login — and each one drops resources that go directly toward pulling Qingxiao or Jingran, leveling up your roster, and farming Echoes. This guide covers every event in detail: how it works, when it runs, what you get, and what to prioritize. If you are also deciding whether to spend your event Astrites on Qingxiao’s banner, check the Qingxiao worth pulling guide before committing.
Version 3.6 “Lamplight in Mirage, Sword’s Resolve in Heart” is live now. You can visit the official Wuthering Waves website for announcements or download the game on Google Play.
Wuthering Waves 3.6 Events – Quick Overview

- Resonance Sim Realm — Combat (Rover-only roguelike) | Astrites, Phantom Echo, Premium Tuner, Sealed Tube, exclusive title
- If Dreams Still Reverberate — Co-op Combat | Astrites, Forgery Premium Supply, Premium Enclosure Tank, Premium Tuner, Random Echo Item

Every event runs on a separate schedule. The ones with daily locks — Gifts of Drifting Mist and The Strings Remember — must be started immediately. Missing a day means missing that day’s reward permanently.
Event 1 – Resonance Sim Realm
What It Is
Resonance Sim Realm is the flagship combat event of Version 3.6 and the most unique mode in this patch. Instead of the standard third-person view, it uses a bird’s-eye tactical perspective where you use abilities from different Resonators during battle. Think of it as a top-down strategy combat event — a fresh angle compared to the usual endgame combat formats.
It is a Rover-only roguelike mode, meaning it specifically features Rover in a roguelike progression format. You pick up buffs, abilities, and upgrades as you progress through floors, making each run feel different depending on your choices.
Rewards
- Astrites
- Phantom: Myriad Snare: Rustfire Chassis — The new Phantom Echo for the 3.6 overworld boss, free from this event
- Premium Tuner
- Premium Sealed Tube
- Exclusive title: “Resonance! Best Combo”
The Phantom Echo is the standout reward here. If you want to run the Rustfire Chassis Echo without farming it, completing Resonance Sim Realm gets it to you for free. Do not skip this event.
Tips
Prioritize buffs that match your equipped Resonators’ elements during runs. Look for synergy between the abilities you pick up. Since it is roguelike, earlier floors are easier and give you room to experiment before the difficulty ramps. Complete the highest possible stage for maximum reward.
Event 2 – If Dreams Still Reverberate
What It Is
If Dreams Still Reverberate is the featured co-op combat event for Version 3.6. It is the only event in this patch that requires or benefits from playing alongside other Rovers. You team up with friends or matched partners and work through timed challenges together.
Dates
Runs from September 17 to September 29, 2026. This is a late-version event — it only becomes available in the second half of the patch, close to the end. Do not forget it is coming or you may miss it entirely.
Rewards
- Astrites
- Forgery Premium Supply – Lahai-Roi
- Premium Enclosure Tank – Land of Xuanfang
- Premium Tuner
- Random Echo Item
Tips
Find a co-op partner before September 17 so you can start immediately when the event opens. Random matchmaking is available if you do not have friends active, but having a coordinated partner makes the challenges faster and more reliable. Since this event only runs for 12 days, do not put it off — block out time in the last two weeks of the patch.
Event 3 – Gifts of Drifting Mist (Login Event)
What It Is
Gifts of Drifting Mist is the returning 7-day login event. It is the simplest event in the patch — just log in every day for seven days to claim that day’s reward from the event page. You do not need to battle or complete quests. Simply open the game, go to the event page, and collect.
Dates
Runs from the Version 3.6 update launch (August 20) through September 29, 2026. The full window is long, but you only get rewards for seven days of logins. Miss a day and that day’s reward is gone.
Rewards
- 5x Radiant Tides — For limited character banners (Qingxiao, Jingran)
- 5x Lustrous Tides — For the permanent Standard Convene banner
- Daily upgrade and recovery materials across the 7-day track
The 10 Tides combined (5 Radiant + 5 Lustrous) are among the most directly useful free pull resources in the patch. These go straight toward your Qingxiao or Jingran pity with no strings attached.
Tips
Log in on day one of the patch and every day afterward until you have claimed all seven rewards. Set a daily reminder if needed. The window is long but you still need seven individual login days — and doing all seven in the last week of the patch risks forgetting. Front-load this event by starting it immediately.
Event 4 – The Strings Remember
What It Is
The Strings Remember is a leisure rhythm event built around the new Guqin instrument system introduced in Version 3.6. Qingxiao’s guqin is central to her character design, and this event is the in-game celebration of that mechanic.
One of seven daily tasks unlocks each day during the event window. Each day reveals a new melody, and you follow Qingxiao’s guidance to play the qin according to that day’s task. The event unfolds gradually — you cannot rush it or complete all seven tasks in a single sitting. One melody per day is the hard limit.
Dates
Runs from September 10 to September 29, 2026. This lines up with Phase 2 of the version, which is when Jingran debuts and Mornye reruns. The event starts at the midpoint of the patch and runs through the end.
Rewards
- Astrites
- Character upgrade materials
- Daily melody unlocks tied to Qingxiao’s guqin story
Tips
This is the second daily-gated event in Version 3.6 alongside Gifts of Drifting Mist. Start it on September 10 the moment it unlocks and check in every day through September 29. Missing even one day means permanently losing that day’s melody unlock and reward. You have 19 days for 7 tasks, but the tasks are locked to specific calendar days — plan ahead rather than relying on catching up later.
Even if you are not a fan of rhythm minigames, the event requires only light engagement and the Astrite reward makes it worth the few minutes daily.
Event 5 – Second Coming of Solaris: Coded Deception
What It Is
Second Coming of Solaris: Coded Deception is a returning leisure event — a rerun of the exploration puzzle format from Version 2.6. If you played the original Second Coming of Solaris during its first run, you already know how this works.
The format is exploration-based: you visit different locations across the game world, identify anomalies at each location, and photograph or interact with them to fix a visual or world glitch. It is low-pressure, lore-flavored content that plays out more like a puzzle trail than a combat challenge.
Rewards
- Astrites
- Character upgrade materials
Tips
This event does not have a daily lock, so you can complete it at your own pace. However, do not let it pile up until the final days of the version — the anomaly locations can take time to track down if you are unfamiliar with the format. Work through it steadily across the middle of the patch when you have cleared the time-gated events. Use the in-game event map markers to track each anomaly location without missing any.
Event 6 – Wuthering Exploration: Fogveil Pagoda
What It Is
Wuthering Exploration: Fogveil Pagoda is the featured exploration event for Version 3.6. It sends you into designated areas — specifically the Fogveil Pagoda location in the new Ren Realm region — where you complete exploration objectives to earn rewards. It combines open-world traversal, puzzle-solving, and light combat into a structured exploration challenge tied to the new Version 3.6 content area.
Rewards
- Astrites
- Premium Sealed Tube
- Modifier
- Premium Tuner
Tips
Complete the Version 3.6 main story quests first. The Ren Realm becomes accessible as you progress through Chapter IV Act III, and most of the Fogveil Pagoda exploration is gated behind story completion. Getting the main quest done in the first week opens all the exploration content quickly. This event also does not have a daily lock — clear it whenever you are ready after the story.
3.6 Event Priority Order – What to Do First
With six events running across 42 days, here is the smartest order to tackle them:
- Day 1 – Immediately: Start claiming Gifts of Drifting Mist daily. Open the event page on login day one and do not stop until all 7 days are claimed.
- Day 1 to Day 21 – First priority: Clear Resonance Sim Realm. No daily lock, but do it early to get the free Phantom Echo before you need it for Echo farming.
- Day 1 to whenever story is done: Complete Wuthering Exploration: Fogveil Pagoda after unlocking Ren Realm through the main quest. No rush but gets done faster when you are fresh in the new area.
- Ongoing: Clear Second Coming of Solaris: Coded Deception at a steady pace. Find anomalies across the patch window — no daily lock so treat it as a background task.
- September 10 – Start immediately: Begin The Strings Remember on its first day and check in daily through September 29. Missing a day costs a melody permanently.
- September 17 to 29 – Late patch: Coordinate If Dreams Still Reverberate with a co-op partner. Schedule this ahead of time so you are not scrambling in the final days.
How Much Astrite Can You Get From 3.6 Events?
The exact total Astrite count varies by how many event objectives you fully complete, but across all six events you can expect:
- Resonance Sim Realm: Several hundred Astrites from full completion
- If Dreams Still Reverberate: Astrites from co-op challenge clears
- Gifts of Drifting Mist: 5 Radiant Tides + 5 Lustrous Tides (equivalent to 10 pulls) plus additional materials
- The Strings Remember: Astrites across all 7 daily unlocks
- Second Coming of Solaris: Coded Deception: Astrites from location clears
- Wuthering Exploration: Fogveil Pagoda: Astrites from exploration objectives
A typical Wuthering Waves patch delivers 600–2,400 total Astrites from events depending on full completion. Combined with daily missions, weekly content, exploration chests in the new Ren Realm area, and the main story quest rewards, Version 3.6 gives enough resources for several pulls if you are consistent across the full 42-day window.
Version 3.6 Redeem Codes
Three codes were revealed during the Version 3.6 Special Broadcast on August 7, 2026. Those broadcast codes have now expired. The currently active permanent code is:
- WUTHERINGGIFT — 50x Astrites, 2x Premium Resonance Potions, 2x Medium Energy Bag, 2x Medium Revival Inhaler, 10,000 Shell Credits. One-time redemption per account. Rolled out at global launch and remains active — redeem it if you haven’t already.
To redeem any code: launch the game → open the pause menu (top-right icon or ESC on PC) → Settings → Other Settings → Redemption Code → enter code → confirm. Rewards arrive in your in-game mailbox.
Keep an eye on official Wuthering Waves social media for any new codes Kuro Games drops during Version 3.6 community events and milestones. New codes are usually distributed during character milestones, maintenance compensation, and community anniversaries.
Other 3.6 Free Rewards to Grab
Beyond the six events, Version 3.6 has several other free reward sources worth collecting:
- Main Quest completion rewards: Finishing Chapter IV Act III (Song of the Heart Sword) unlocks the Cloud Voyage motorbike livery and the Jadie the Mightiest Autopuppet livery.
- Ren Realm exploration chests: The new area is packed with supply chests that give Astrites, upgrade materials, and other resources.
- New world quest rewards: Ren Realm world quests add more Astrites and items outside the named event structure.
- Tactical Hologram: Myriad Snare: Rustfire Chassis: The new Sparring challenge for the 3.6 boss gives Echo materials and Drill Data Sets on first-time clears.
- Maintenance compensation: After the 7-hour maintenance window, check your mailbox for Kuro’s standard downtime compensation package.
What to Spend Your 3.6 Event Rewards On
Here is the smart way to use the resources you collect across 3.6 events:
- Radiant Tides: Use on Qingxiao’s Wind of Transcendence banner (Phase 1) or Jingran’s banner (Phase 2) depending on your pull priority.
- Lustrous Tides: Use on the permanent Standard Convene. Standard pulls still contribute to your overall roster through Verina, Calcharo, and other standard 5-stars.
- Astrites: Convert to Radiant Tides for limited banner pulls only. Never spend Astrites on anything else during an active limited character window.
- Premium Tuners and Echo materials: Use immediately to level up the Heart of Evil’s Purge Echoes you have been farming for Qingxiao, or hold for the 3.7 character coming next version.
- Forgery Premium Supplies: Use in Mengzhou Forgery Challenges to farm Wing Polarizers for Qingxiao’s Forte upgrades without spending Waveplates.
