Incisor of the strings of annihilation: Chisa

Rarity: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐| Element: Havoc | Weapon: Broadblade

This new Resonator embodies a classic anime-style schoolgirl design—long black hair, striking crimson eyes, a traditional black JK uniform, and sleek black leg garters. As Wuthering Waves' first JK-inspired character, she blends Japanese aesthetics with the game's post-apocalyptic flair. LDShop also noticed that Chisa's uniform shows deliberate wear and tear: a tattered cape, a frayed skirt, bandages wrapped around her fingers and thighs—all hinting at her combat-ready nature. This girl clearly means business!

Her weapon is a unique Broadblade, designed to look like a calibrated sewing scissor-blade with sharp edges and intricate markings. Wielding this impressive blade, Chisa is confirmed to be a Havoc-attribute Resonator, fitting her fierce combat-ready appearance.

To get a head start on empowering this formidable new character, be sure to check out our complete guide on Chisa's materials prefarm.

Now we got Chisa's model in game from Stepleaks.

Based on current banner schedules, Versions 2.5-2.6 will focus on the Spetimont's storyline, while 2.7 bridges Spetimont and the New Federation arc. This positions Chisa as the likely New Federation debut in Version 2.8. Stay tuned for more leaks!

 

New 4-star Resonator: Buling

Rarity: ⭐⭐⭐⭐| Element: Electro | Weapon: Rectifier

Buling is a 4-star Electro Resonator focused on sustain and team utility. Her Heavy Attack and Outro Skill restore HP, keeping aggressive rotations safe, while her kit buffs allies’ Resonance Skills to smooth burst windows and raise overall consistency. As another new 4-star in Version 2.8, she slots cleanly into skill-centric and Electro comps, delivering low-commitment heals and flexible buffs without breaking tempo.

Possible Wuwa 2.8 Rerun Characters

Phoebe

Rarity: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐| Element: Spectro | Weapon: Rectifier

Phoebe is a versatile Spectro unit who uses the Spectro Frazzle debuff to boost team damage. Her Outro Skill lowers enemies' Spectro resistance, while her Resonance Skill provides crowd control. She switches between two modes: Confession (support/sub-DPS) to apply Frazzle, and Absolution (main DPS) to deal amplified damage to afflicted enemies. Though adaptable, her power relies heavily on maintaining Spectro Frazzle, making her somewhat situational.

Phrolova

Rarity: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐| Element: Havoc | Weapon: Rectifier

Phrolova is a 5-star Havoc Resonator who excels as both a damage dealer and support. By generating Volatile Notes, she powers her ultimate to unleash wide AoE Havoc damage while summoning Hecate to amplify attacks. Her Outro Skill boosts allies' Havoc and Heavy Attack damage, giving her strong synergy in Havoc teams. Though powerful, she requires precise note management and coordination to perform at her best.

Cantarella

Rarity: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐| Element: Havoc | Weapon: Rectifier

Cantarella is a Havoc Rectifier who serves as an off-field sub-DPS and healer. Using her Mirage State from Trance, she delivers steady damage and continuous healing. Her Resonance Liberation deals coordinated strikes over time, letting main DPS stay active. By building Shiver stacks, she triggers finishers that heal allies and enhance Havoc damage. Though timing-dependent, she offers strong sustain and utility with minimal field time.

 

New Federation Speculation

Remember the Wuthering Waves × Cyberpunk: Edgerunners collaboration announced during the 2.3 livestream? It’s expected to launch in 2026—and interestingly, recent characters like Qiuyuan and our Chisa, all share a distinct modern-tech aesthetic.

While Wuthering Waves hasn’t fully revealed the New Federation’s lore yet, the designs of these new Resonators (think urban combat gear + battle-worn details) hint at a faction theme centered around "post-war city reconstruction." This could seamlessly tie into the Edgerunners crossover, blending Night City’s cyberpunk chaos with WuWa’s apocalyptic resilience.

Of course, this is just LDShop’s speculation—official updates may prove otherwise!

 

Conclusion

The moment Chisa's character art dropped, the internet went wild! Every detail—from her JK uniform and combat bandages to her long black hair, crimson eyes, and tattered cape—screams both unique charm and formidable power. Whether you're a design enthusiast or a meta chaser, this new Resonator is absolutely worth the hype!
