Rumors about the unexpected union of the two universes appeared back in February, but only now have specific details begun to surface. And apparently, the collaboration will be much more serious than just a couple of skins.
Wendy Lee, the actress who gave voice to one of the key characters in the anime Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, accidentally (or not so much) revealed information ahead of time. In her post on X, she confirmed that Lucy and Rebecca will be added to Wuthering Waves. The tweet was quickly deleted, but the fans, of course, managed to take screenshots. The ones that are currently spreading across all gaming publications.
By the way, Wuthering Waves did not just attract the attention of major studios — in 2025, the game won the prestigious award of the players’ choice at The Game Awards. So the appearance of the guests from Night City looks like a logical step to retain the audience.

How Cyberpunk characters will fit into the world of Wuthering Waves — won’t they break the canon
Judging by the leaks from fan circles, the scenario with Lucy and Rebecca will be isolated. A separate thread that does not overlap with the main plot of the free role-playing game. The developers clearly don’t want to ruin the narrative, but at the same time give fans the opportunity to hang out with their favorite characters.
The main thing is still unclear: will Lucy and Rebecca become full-fledged playable characters or just appear as guest NPCs for the duration of the limited event. The first option looks greasier, but it will also require more work under the hood.
When to expect a crossover between Cyberpunk Edgerunners and Wuthering Waves
The target date is June 2026. The 3.4 update will be the entry point. The date is not final, but judging by the pace of development and leaks, there should be no delays.
Fans of both universes have a lot to look forward to. On the one hand, the iconic anime aesthetics of Night City, on the other, the dynamic gameplay of Wuthering Waves, which has already become popular with millions. The main thing is that technically everything is delivered without bugs.
