Version 3.5 of Wuthering Waves runs a full slate of events built around the new Mengzhou region and the land of Xuanfang. The lineup mixes fresh exploration content with returning combat and photography modes, and almost every event pays out Astrites alongside upgrade materials, exclusive sigils, titles, and avatars.
Quick answer: Version 3.5 has eight tracked events. Exploration events (A Glimpse of Xuanfang, Shape of Yesterday) and combat events (Lament Recon: Tacet Crisis, Virtual Crisis: Quadrant Trials, Recaptured: Action Highlights) give Astrites plus tuners and supply materials, while Gifts of Aftertune and Lollo Campaign: New Journey are login-based and hand out Tides and consumables. Clear each event before Version 3.5 ends to collect everything.

Exploration events in Mengzhou and Xuanfang
Two events send you out into the new map. A Glimpse of Xuanfang is the standard area exploration event, where you clear objectives across the region to unlock the Xuanfang Wonder sigil, Astrites, a Premium Resonance Potion, and several supply boxes. It is the most efficient stop if you want a cosmetic sigil plus solid material returns in one pass.
Shape of Yesterday is a photo collection event. You travel to specific spots in Mengzhou and snap photographs that match the requirements. Completing it returns Astrites along with Advanced Resonance Potion, Advanced Energy Core, and Advanced Sealed Tube, the higher-tier supply materials used for leveling characters and weapons.
Combat and photography events
Lament Recon: Tacet Crisis returns with the same core loop as before. You need quick reflexes to reposition your team and dodge enemy attacks, and you can buy new weapons and items during the run to deal with tougher foes. Clearing it grants Astrites, the Space and Blake Bloom Medal exclusive sigil, a matching exclusive avatar, a Modifier, and a Premium Tuner.
Virtual Crisis: Quadrant Trials is a straightforward combat event focused on defeating strong enemies across stages. It pays out Astrite, a Premium Tuner, Advanced Resonance Potion, and the Virtual Beacon exclusive title.
Recaptured: Action Highlights is the returning combat photography event. You perform specific actions with a designated character and capture them on camera to match each task’s conditions. Finishing every requirement gives Astrites, Premium Resonance Potion, Premium Energy Core, and Premium Sealed Tube.
Login and daily-task events for free Tides
Gifts of Aftertune is the recurring seven-day login event. Logging in across its run lets you claim five Radiant Tides and five Lustrous Tides, the materials that count toward pity on the limited and standard banners. You do not need to do anything beyond opening the game on those days.
Lollo Campaign: New Journey is back as a daily-task event. Each day you complete a set of objectives to gradually unlock its full reward pool, which spans Astrite, Lustrous Tide, Supply Packs, Shell Credits, Premium Tuner, Premium Resonance Potion, and Crystal Solvent. Spreading the tasks out over the event window is the only requirement to collect everything.
In Search of Lost Jades web event
In Search of Lost Jades is the version’s web event, handled in the browser rather than in the client. Completing its tasks delivers Astrites plus Advanced Resonance Potion, Advanced Energy Core, and Advanced Sealed Tube straight to your in-game mailbox. Because it sits outside the main game, it is easy to overlook, so check it once it goes live.
Version 3.5 livestream codes for extra rewards
Alongside the events, Version 3.5 brings a fresh batch of redemption codes tied to the preview livestream. These deliver bonus currency and consumables on top of event rewards. Codes expire quickly, so redeem them as soon as you can.
- MECHANISMCITY
- INTOTHEFOG
- REUNION
To redeem, you must first reach Union Level 2.
How to know you have collected everything
Each event lives in the in-game Events menu with its own claim panel. When an event’s reward tiers show as claimed and its timer reaches zero, there is nothing left to collect from it. Login events such as Gifts of Aftertune only fully complete after you have logged in on the required number of days, so a partially filled progress bar means you still have claims pending.
Note: Most limited-time events close at the end of the version. Anything you have not claimed by the time Version 3.5 ends is forfeited, so sweep the Events menu before the patch rotates over.
Between the eight events and the livestream codes, Version 3.5 stacks Astrites with a steady supply of tuners, Tides, and supply materials, plus a handful of exclusive sigils, an avatar, and the Virtual Beacon title for collectors. Prioritize the exploration and combat events for the bulk of the Astrites, keep up with the daily and login events for free Tides, and clear the web event for extra advanced materials before the version closes.
