Wuthering Waves reveals new character Cartethyia for version 2.4

Kuro Games finally confirmed on May 6 that Cartethyia will become a playable character in Wuthering Waves. She’s a 5-star character and will be released in the upcoming version 2.4 update.

Unfortunately for fans of the game, the developer did not share any details about Cartethyia’s Attribute and weapon type. That said, we do have an idea of what they’ll be thanks to recent leaks.

Cartethyia will release in WuWa 2.4

Kuro Games finally drip-marketed Cartethyia, also known as Fleurdelys, on Wuthering Waves’ official social media accounts, confirming how the Blessed Maiden will be released in version 2.4. Furthermore, the post reveals that she is a 5-star unit, which shouldn’t be surprising considering her role in the story.

“The powers of the Sentinel and Threnodian clash and unite within her, propelling her into an uncertain future,” the announcement reads. “Whether the future is bright or dim, she will hold the blade firmly and confront all that comes her way.”

Cartethyia’s splash art also shows her adult self (Fleurdelys), so we can look forward to playing her in both forms in WuWa. That said, it’s unclear if the second form will be locked behind Resonance Liberation or if she can transform by charging her Forte and using the Skill.

Given Cartethyia’s connections with the Sentinel Imperator, the Threnodian Leviathan, and the Dark Tide, it’s safe to say she’ll be one of the strongest characters in the game, similar to Jinhsi from Huanglong.

Expected Attribute and weapon

Kuro Games has not announced Fleurdelys’ Attribute and weapon type. Based on the recent leaks, though, it’s speculated she could be an Aero unit. Furthermore, Cartethyia is seen using a Sword in the game, so it will likely be her weapon of choice.

Luckily, the developers usually reveal the element and weapon type soon after the character drip marketing, so you won’t have to wait long for official confirmation.

Since Cartethyia is the first character to be revealed for the Wuthering Waves 2.4 update, she will likely be in the first phase. Thus, you can expect her banner to be released on or around June 12.
