Key takeaways

  • Wuthering Waves: Elysium anime series revealed by Kuro Games

Kuro Games is stretching its creative wings with the reveal of Wuthering Waves: Elysium, an animated series based on its award-winning action RPG. The announcement comes paired with a shiny new reveal trailer and marks the debut of Kuro Onroad, a fresh animation brand set to bring the developer's game worlds to life in animated form. Elysium is the first project to roll out under this new label, promising to give fans a different window into the universe they've been exploring in-game.

According to Kuro Games, the Elysium series is a deliberate leap into expanding the Wuthering Waves universe beyond gaming, offering another way to experience its characters, stories, and world. The studio has made it clear that future updates about the series will drop through Kuro Onroad's official regional social channels, so anyone curious about the next chapter should keep an eye on those feeds.

Wuthering Waves itself is a free-to-play cross-platform RPG set in a post-cataclysmic sci-fi world, famous for its fast-paced combat and open-world exploration. The game has racked up industry recognition, nabbing the 2025 Player’s Voice award at The Game Awards and Best Audio/Visual Accomplishment at the Pocket Gamer Mobile Games Awards 2024. Clearly, it’s not just the fans who’ve been paying attention.

The anime reveal arrives just as the Wuthering Waves Concert Tour: To the New World announces its North American debut. After sold-out shows in Shanghai, Tokyo, Seoul, Taipei, and Singapore, the tour will land at Los Angeles’ Peacock Theatre on October 17th, 2026. It’s the first time the live concert experience will hit the US, opening another door for fans to immerse themselves in the world.

Why it matters

With Kuro Games branching into animation and live events, the Wuthering Waves universe is steadily growing beyond its digital roots. Fans can look forward to new ways to connect with the story, whether they’re watching, playing, or turning up for the next concert.
