Kuro Games has confirmed that Jinhsi and Changli will be released in the upcoming Wuthering Waves 1.1 update. Both are 5-star Resonators but their release order hasn't been officially announced. However, the banner schedule has already been leaked, courtesy of @PalitoGodd on X:

Phase I (June 28, 2024)

• Jinhsi (5-star Spectro)
• Danjin (4-star Havoc)
• Sanhua (4-star Glacio)
• Yangyang (4-star Aero)

Phase II (July 18, 2024)

• Changli (5-star Fusion)
• Baizhi (4-star Glacio)
• Mortefi (4-star Fusion)
• Taoqi (4-star Havoc)

Both phases are expected to last three weeks. However, Kuro Games changed the version timings for Wuthering Waves 1.1, so it is likely that they might change version 1.1 timings as well, so the phase-two date is subject to change.

Version 1.1 will release a new area called Mt. Firmament. According to the beta leaks, it is located east of Whining Aix's Mire. A popular and reliable leaker, Mero, has also leaked some images of Mt. Firmament and the new location looks amazing. One can see that this region has a lot of snow, unlike other parts of Huanglong.

Needless to say, Rovers can expect a lot of Supply Chests, Tidal Heritages, and open-world challenges while exploring the new map.

Data Bank level increase

The Data Bank is also expected to be increased to Level 21. This will increase the chances of getting a 5-star Echo to 100%. The Wuthering Waves 1.1 update will introduce many new Echoes, including Jue and several other smaller mobs, so Rovers will be able to level up their Data Bank and obtain rewards.

Furthermore, the developers will add a new Waveplate storage system, which will help save a lot of precious energy and resources.
