Leaks have revealed that Wuthering Waves' Jinhsi and Sanhua skins could be released in version 2.0, with one costume being paid while the other being free.
Wuthering Waves is known for constantly adding new stuff to keep the game happening, and now leaks have revealed that popular characters Jinhsi and Sanhua might be getting new skins in the upcoming Version 2.0 update. Here’s a look at what we know so far about these potential new WuWa skins and what players might expect.
WuWa Jinhsi and Sanhua’s Skins Leak
The leaks came from sources like Stepleaker and others, hinting that both Jinhsi and Sanhua will be getting new looks, with Jinhsi’s outfit being the main attraction.
WuWa Jinhsi’s Skin Details
Jinhsi, a five-star character in Wuthering Waves, is rumored to be getting a new skin with a pretty light pink dress, mixed with some reddish and white colors. The dress will also feature pink flowers, which will make Jinhsi stand out even more. But that’s not all. Her attack animations are expected to change too. Instead of her usual white and gold effects, her attacks will have pink and white flowery effects, making them look more beautiful during combat.

WuWa Sanhua’s Skin Details
Sanhua, a four-star character, is also getting a skin, though there’s less information about her outfit. The biggest detail so far is that she might be wearing a kitsune mask, which comes from Japanese folklore and is often linked to mysterious fox spirits. Some fans have pointed out that this mask might resemble something from Genshin Impact, but aside from that, we don’t have much more info about her costume yet.

Are Wuthering Waves Jinhsi and Sanhua Skins free or paid and when will they release?
One big question on everyone’s mind is whether these new WuWa skins will be free or if players will need to pay for them. Rumors suggest that Sanhua’s skin might be free since she’s a four-star character and generally easier for most players to get. This would give everyone a chance to grab her cool new look without spending money.
On the other hand, Jinhsi’s skin is likely to be a paid item, similar to how skins work in Genshin Impact. If true, players may need to spend around $30 to $40 to get her beautiful pink flower-themed skin. While it could be a bit pricey, fans of Jinhsi might find it worth it, especially with the special design and new combat effects.
As for the release date of these skins, the leaks suggest that they will release in the Wuthering Waves 2.0 update, which is expected to roll out either in late December 2024 or early January 2025. Currently, the game is in Version 1.3, with Version 1.4 coming soon, so players might have to wait a few months before these skins officially arrive.
In the meantime, players can enjoy the latest updates, including new characters like Shorekeeper and Youhu. If the leaks are accurate, Jinhsi and Sanhua’s new skins could be some of the most exciting additions in Version 2.0, alongside new characters and game modes that are also rumored to be coming soon. There’s even talk of a new "gothic" character arriving in the game.
However, keep in mind that we don’t have official confirmation from the developers yet. But still, these leaks seem promising, and fans are eager to see what Wuthering Waves has in store with its next big update.
