New Playable Characters

Two new 5-star Resonators will make an appearance: Iuno and Augusta.

Iuno is bound by the Moon element, fights with Gauntlets, and functions primarily in a support healer role.
Augusta is bound by the Sun; she electrodamages with a Broadsword, and also has the ability to summon a Griffin to participate in combats with powerful bursts.

Story and Location Expansion

The city of Septimont, introduced in version 2.4, is receiving more content currently. The update introduces more lore sections, new sidequests, and has a closer connection with the gladiator culture of the location.

Previously, we could experience the story of WuWa Lupa, as she is a gladiator herself. The new character, Augusta, enjoys arena battles as well. To continue adventures around Septimont, WuWa 2.6 gets new TDs, locations, and quests connected to this city.

New Enemies and Rewards

Tacet Discords (TDs), new kinds of powerful enemies that reward substantial materials and rewards upon defeat, will be encountered by players.
