Wuthering Waves 3.7 Livestream Date, Time & Expectations
The Wuthering Waves 3.7 livestream date and time have not been officially announced by Kuro Games as of this writing, but based on the game’s consistent six-week update cycle, the livestream is expected to air in late June 2025, roughly one to two days before the version 3.7 patch goes live. The stream typically runs for about 30–40 minutes and reveals the new Resonator, weapon, story quests, and event schedule for the upcoming version.
Background: How Wuthering Waves Livestreams Work
Kuro Games has followed a predictable pattern for every major update since the game’s launch. Each version (like 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, etc.) lasts exactly six weeks, and the livestream is held on the Friday or Saturday immediately before the patch releases. The stream is hosted on the official Wuthering Waves YouTube and Twitch channels, and it is also simulcast on Bilibili for Chinese viewers.
The livestream is not a casual Q&A session; it is a structured presentation that typically includes:
- A cinematic trailer for the new storyline and region
- Gameplay showcase of the new 5-star and 4-star Resonators
- Details on the new weapon and echo sets
- Overview of limited-time events and rewards
- Redemption codes that give 100–300 Astrite (the premium currency)
Kuro Games also uses the stream to announce quality-of-life improvements, system reworks, and occasionally a roadmap for the next few patches. The stream ends with a short teaser for the following version, which fans analyze for clues about future characters.
Predicted Date and Time for the 3.7 Livestream
To estimate the 3.7 livestream date, we can look at the known schedule of previous patches. Version 3.0 launched on January 2, 2025, which means each six-week cycle pushes the next version forward by exactly 42 days. That puts version 3.6 around May 15, 2025, and version 3.7 around June 26, 2025. The livestream for 3.6 was on May 13, 2025 (a Tuesday), which was two days before the patch. If the pattern holds, the 3.7 livestream would be on June 24, 2025 (a Tuesday), with the patch releasing on June 26, 2025 (a Thursday).
However, Kuro Games sometimes shifts the stream to a Friday or Saturday to maximize viewership. For example, the 3.0 livestream was on a Saturday, December 28, 2024, while the 3.1 stream was on a Friday, February 7, 2025. So the exact day of the week can vary, but the stream always happens within a week of the patch release.
As for the time, the livestreams have consistently started at 19:00 UTC+8 (Beijing time), which converts to:
- 11:00 UTC (universal time)
- 07:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time (EDT)
- 04:00 AM Pacific Daylight Time (PDT)
- 12:00 PM British Summer Time (BST)
- 08:00 PM Japan Standard Time (JST)
It is worth noting that Kuro Games has occasionally moved the time by an hour, but the 19:00 UTC+8 slot has been the standard for over a year. The stream typically lasts 30–40 minutes, followed by a short post-show where they sometimes drop additional codes.
What to Expect in Version 3.7
While Kuro Games has not officially confirmed the content of 3.7, the game’s roadmap and datamining community have provided strong hints. The most reliable expectation is the introduction of a new 5-star Resonator. Based on the story arc that began in 3.0, the next character is likely to be a Havoc or Spectro user, as those elements have not had a new 5-star since 2.4.
Version 3.7 is also expected to continue the main story quest, which has been building toward a confrontation in the Black Shores region. The livestream will likely show a new area within that region, possibly a dungeon or a new overworld zone with a unique mechanic, such as a time-loop puzzle or a gravity-defying platforming section.
In terms of events, 3.7 will likely feature:
- A flagship event that gives a free 4-star weapon or a free 4-star Resonator (like the previous “Tales of the Past” event)
- A double-drop event for Echo materials or Tacet Fields
- A co-op boss challenge with leaderboard rewards
- Return of the “Illusive Realm” roguelike mode, possibly with a new modifier
Players also expect a new Echo set, likely for the new Resonator’s element. The livestream will show the set bonuses and which bosses drop the new pieces.
How to Watch and Get Livestream Rewards
To watch the 3.7 livestream, you have two official options:
- YouTube: The official Wuthering Waves channel (search for “Wuthering Waves Official”)
- Twitch: The official Kuro Games channel
Both channels go live at the same time. If you miss the stream, the VOD is uploaded to YouTube within a few hours, but the redemption codes are only valid for 24 hours from the time they are shown on stream. The codes are typically 12 characters long, consisting of a mix of letters and numbers, and they are distributed in the chat and on screen during the stream.
To redeem the codes, go to the in-game menu, select “Settings,” then “Account,” and then “Redemption Code.” Enter the code exactly as shown, and you will receive the rewards via in-game mail within 15 minutes. Codes give a total of 300 Astrite (three codes of 100 each) in most recent streams, which is enough for about two pulls on the gacha banner.
Common Misconceptions About Livestream Dates
One frequent mistake is assuming that the livestream date is the same as the patch date. They are not the same; the stream is always 1–3 days before the patch. Another misconception is that the livestream will be delayed if there is a public holiday in China. In reality, Kuro Games has never delayed a stream for a holiday; they simply schedule it on a different weekday.
Some players also believe that the livestream will announce a new region (like a whole new map). In 3.7, that is unlikely, as major regions are reserved for X.0 versions (like 4.0). Instead, 3.7 will expand the existing map with a smaller area.
Finally, a common question is whether the livestream is available in English. Yes, the stream has simultaneous English interpretation (either live subtitles or a separate English audio track on a second channel). The English stream is hosted on the same YouTube channel, but sometimes the audio is delayed by a few seconds. If you prefer no delay, watch the original Chinese stream and read the live chat translations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the 3.7 livestream announce a new character?
Yes, almost certainly. Every major version livestream reveals at least one new 5-star Resonator and one new 4-star. The 3.7 stream will show gameplay, animations, and the character’s kit in detail.
How many Astrite will the codes give?
In the last few streams, the three codes gave a total of 300 Astrite (100 each). It is possible that 3.7 will give 400 if there is a special anniversary or collaboration, but 300 is the safe expectation.
Is there a way to watch the stream if I miss it?
Yes, the VOD is uploaded to YouTube within a few hours after the stream ends. However, the redemption codes expire after 24 hours, so you must redeem them before the next day.
Will the 3.7 patch be delayed?
No official delay has been announced. Kuro Games has maintained a six-week cycle since launch, and there is no indication that 3.7 will break that pattern.
Do I need to watch the stream to understand the story?
No, the stream only gives a summary and trailer. The full story is in the game itself, so you will not miss any lore by skipping the stream.
Can I earn the new character without spending money?
Yes, the game gives enough free Astrite through events and daily quests to guarantee a 5-star character every other patch, assuming you save. The 3.7 events will provide a significant amount of Astrite, so free-to-play players can still pull for the new character if they have saved up.
