Kuro Games has published its Version 3.8 content bulletin for Wuthering Waves, detailing Lily, a new story chapter and changes to character management. The update, titled Lilies in a Dying Dream, is part of the game’s November 12 rollout. The developer’s Steam announcement was posted at 04:00 Beijing time, during the scheduled maintenance window.

For mobile players, the immediate task is freeing space for the download. Kuro’s maintenance notice lists a 9 GB Android and iOS pre-download package and 13 GB of required free space. Those figures describe the update preparation, not the size of the entire installed game. The notice says temporary space used when merging resources is freed after maintenance. [2]
Lily and the Train of Souls
Lily, a five-star Spectro Resonator who uses pistols, is available through the Bloom of Yesterday’s Dreamsoil featured character Convene. Lullaby, a new five-star pistol, appears in a separate weapon Convene. The Train of Souls area is reached during Chapter IV Act V, A Bouquet for Tomorrow. [1]
The bulletin also lists Blitz Mode, an Overview tab in the Resonator Ascension Planner, changes to Rover's Resonance Conversion and Guidebook improvements. The short announcement names these features without explaining all their rules. [1]
For newcomers, Wuthering Waves is an open-world action RPG in which Rover travels with companions called Resonators while recovering lost memories. The publisher’s mobile description emphasizes exploration and character abilities alongside the story. New players can begin with the game’s introduction and follow the quest requirements to later chapters, without treating every feature in the update as an immediate goal. [3]
What the mobile download changes
Kuro scheduled maintenance for November 12 from 04:00 to 11:00 UTC+8, equivalent to November 11 at 20:00 through November 12 at 03:00 UTC. The in-game update prompt directs Android players; iPhone and iPad players update through the App Store. Kuro recommends Wi-Fi for the large download. The stated end time is a schedule, not confirmation that service has resumed. [2]
The US App Store page lists Wuthering Waves as free with in-app purchases, requiring iOS 14 or later on iPhone and iPadOS 14 or later on iPad. It shows a 3.4 GB app download. That figure differs from Kuro’s resource package, space is therefore needed for both the update process and the storefront download. [3]
The publisher describes combat built around evasion, counterattacks and Echo skills. On a phone, a short check of the controls and graphics settings after updating is worthwhile. It gives players time to adjust the setup before committing to a longer quest or difficult encounter. [3]
Check platform labels and event notices
Categorized resource downloads and resource cleanup remain a limited PC test. PSSR support applies to some console devices. Neither change applies to phones. [1]
The maintenance notice offers eligible accounts 300 Astrite and two Crystal Solvents. Players must have created a character and unlocked Mail before 04:00 UTC+8 on November 12. The claim window lasts until the next version update. Players should check the game’s Mail feature and current event notices at their next login. [2]
