Where to watch the 3.6 broadcast
The special program streams on the official Wuthering Waves channels. Watching live is the fastest way to catch each code, since they flash on screen as the presenters move through the segments.
3.6 livestream codes and what they give
Three redemption codes drop during the broadcast, each worth 100 Astrite, for a combined 300 Astrite. They typically come bundled with secondary materials such as Premium Resonance Potions, Shell Credits, and Echo upgrade items. The exact code strings are only revealed once the stream is airing, so keep a note handy.
Note: livestream codes expire quickly, usually within 24 to 48 hours of the broadcast. Redeem them as soon as they appear rather than waiting until later in the day.
How to redeem the codes
Redemption unlocks once your account reaches Union Level 2, which most players pass shortly after finishing the opening chapter. Follow these steps in order.
If a code is rejected, the usual reasons are a typo, wrong letter casing, an account below Union Level 2, or a code that has already expired.
What the 3.6 broadcast covers
Version 3.6 follows the release of the sister pair, Yangyang: Xuanling and Suisui, and introduces two new limited five-star Resonators. Qingxiao is an Aero Sword character, and Jingran wields Fusion. Expect full kit breakdowns and combat showcases for both, along with the banner order and the confirmed 3.6 release date.
With Version 3.5 running through August 19, the 3.6 update is expected to follow soon after on the standard six-week cycle. The broadcast itself is where that exact date becomes official, so it is the moment to watch if you are planning your pulls for Qingxiao and Jingran.
