Wuthering Waves è un gioco di ruolo d'azione gratuito in mondo aperto sviluppato da Kuro Games, studio con sede a Guangzhou, in Cina, già autore di Punishing: Gray Raven. Il gioco è diretto da Solon Lee.

Tra le ispirazioni iniziali c'era Death Stranding: l'idea era un mondo post-apocalittico in cui si incontrano civiltà antiche e nuove. Dal precedente Punishing: Gray Raven arrivano invece molte idee per il sistema di combattimento. Dopo il primo test chiuso, i giocatori trovarono la storia poco convincente, e il team la riscrisse in gran parte.

Wuthering Waves è uscito a maggio 2024 su PC, iOS e Android e nel corso dello sviluppo è passato da Unreal Engine 4 a Unreal Engine 5. In seguito è arrivato su PlayStation 5 a gennaio 2025, su Steam ad aprile 2025 e su Xbox Series X/S a luglio 2026.
