WuWa Geshu Lin is Here! Kit, Gameplay & Release Date Prediction!

Her, Rovers! Big news for Geshu Lin fans! We finally get some info about this mysterious character in the game’s lore. After being gone since WuWa version 1.0, he’s officially making a comeback in the second half of WuWa 2.7 update. This blog will give a detailed analysis about Geshu Lin’s currently info leaks. Now, let’s dive into details.

*Please note that all info about Geshu Lin’s kit is from multiple sources, so take it with a grain of salt.

Geshu Lin in WuWa 2.7

The last time we saw Geshu Lin was during Jiyan’s story all the way back in the launch version. Since then—nothing. But that’s about to change.

In Version 2.7 Phase 2, starting October 30, a new quest called Afterstory: A Stranger in a Strange Land will feature Geshu Lin’s long-awaited reappearance.

Even better, the teaser shows a face-off between Geshu Lin and Qiuyuan, hinting at an intense cutscene or even a boss fight. It’s been over a year since we’ve seen him, so this marks his official return to the main storyline. And it’s since it’s finally happening, this might mean he’ll come back later on and become a playable character.

Geshu Lin Kit Predic

Rarity: 5-satr | Element: Havoc | Weapon: Broadblade

While official gameplay has not been revealed, early leaks and hints suggest that Geshu Lin will be a Havoc Broadblade main DPS character. His design has always carried that Havoc energy: dark aura, corrupted visual motifs, and a sense of restrained chaos. These traits make it easy to imagine him as a devastating on-field DPS who trades safety for power.

In simple terms, Geshu Lin seems to have a HP-scaling mechanics. Rovers may need to manage his HP carefully, balancing between dealing massive bursts of damage and keeping him alive.

He’s being compared to Danjin, another character known for HP-based mechanics where lowering health increases output. However, unlike Danjin’s pure glass-cannon setup, it’s rumored that Geshu Lin might have limited self-sustain tools, such as temporary shields, life-steal, or a passive that reduces damage taken when under low HP thresholds.

This would let him stay on-field longer without relying entirely on healers or shielders, reinforcing his role as a self-sufficient Havoc juggernaut.

Gameplay

From his brief appearance in the Jiyan trailer, Geshu Lin already made a lasting impression. The animation showed him channeling Havoc energy and unleashing purple-corrosive slashes that ripple across the battlefield.

If that visual language carries into his actual gameplay, we can expect heavy AOE patterns, slow but powerful swings, and explosive burst phases where he releases stored energy for massive damage.

His Havoc aura might even manifest as a lingering field effect, corroding enemies or amplifying his next attack chain. It’s the kind of “controlled chaos” design that fits perfectly with Wuthering Waves’ tone and combat style.

Possible Release Date

So, when will Geshu Lin be playable? Based on the current schedules and leaks, WuWa 2.8 Chisa and Buling debut, WuWa 3.0 Monin and Linnea debut. So Geshu Lin is expected to release in WuWa 3.1 or later.

Final Thoughts

After vanishing since 1.0, Geshu Lin’s return in 2.7 isn’t just a nostalgic callback—it’s the setup for something much bigger. Whether he ends up launching in 3.1 or later, one thing’s clear: Geshu Lin’s comeback is one of the biggest moments for Geshu Lin mains.

Stay tuned with LDShop’s WuWa hub for more updates once we get the official drip marketing, gameplay footage, and banner confirmation—because this time, Geshu Lin isn’t just returning to the story. He’s here to dominate it.
