Server Selection & Daily Reset Guide

Wuthering Waves offers five different servers; the game will suggest one depending on where you are. While players are able to switch servers from the main menu, their progress is not saved when they switch servers.

When deciding on a server, keep in mind the following details:

  • The daily and weekly reset times will be impacted by the server’s time zone. You might find that the one that works best with your current setup is also the best option for you. At 7 AM UTC (12 AM PST) on all Punishing: Grey Raven servers, it is now.
  • While server ping can affect cooperative modes, it’s important to remember that Wuthering Waves’ main focus is on single-player content, which is client-side and thus will not encounter any lag.
  • On coop mode, it’s possible that your friends would prefer to play on the same server.
  • Depending on the server you choose, the Echo Summon web event offers different rewards. Although you have the option to begin anew on a different server, it is highly unlikely that your event prizes will be carried over.

Here we will examine the details of each server provided in this manual.
