Looking for the latest working Wuthering Waves codes? This page tracks active redemption codes for free Astrite, Shell Credits, upgrade materials, healing supplies, and limited-time cosmetic rewards.
Last checked: August 22, 2026. The only reliably confirmed active public code is WUTHERINGGIFT. It provides 50 Astrite and several progression materials. The Version 3.5 collaboration code F5F4D3B2A2 passed its reported August 19 redemption deadline and should now be treated as expired.
Important August update: The three Version 3.6 Preview Special Broadcast codes — HEARTOFSWORD, ETERNALFLAME, and THEANSWER — expired on August 9, 2026 at 08:59 PT. They previously provided a combined 300 Astrite but should no longer appear in the active-code table.
Version status: Wuthering Waves Version 3.6 “Lamplight in Mirage, Sword’s Resolve in Heart” is now live. The update launched on August 20, 2026 after scheduled maintenance. No new broadly available redemption code has been confirmed with the Version 3.6 launch.
Redemption codes can expire or reach a usage limit without much advance notice. Enter every code exactly as displayed and collect any delivered rewards from the in-game Mailbox before the individual message expires.
Active Wuthering Waves Codes (August 2026)
| Redemption Code | Rewards | Status |
|---|---|---|
WUTHERINGGIFT |
Astrite ×50 Premium Resonance Potion ×2 Medium Revival Inhaler ×2 Medium Energy Bag ×2 Shell Credit ×10,000 |
Active; long-running code with no widely announced expiration date |
Current free Astrite total: The currently confirmed active code provides up to 50 Astrite through WUTHERINGGIFT.
This total assumes that your account has not already redeemed WUTHERINGGIFT. The code can normally be used only once per eligible account.
Is F5F4D3B2A2 Still Active?
No. F5F4D3B2A2 was the Wuthering Waves × Escape from Duckov collaboration code for an Expedition Motorbike livery. Its reported redemption period ended on August 19, 2026, so it should no longer appear in the active-code table after the Version 3.6 launch.
The reward was cosmetic only and did not provide Astrite, Shell Credits, combat stats, or movement-speed bonuses.
What Does WUTHERINGGIFT Give?
WUTHERINGGIFT is Wuthering Waves' long-running welcome code and remains the safest code for new or returning players who have never redeemed it.
- Astrite ×50
- Premium Resonance Potion ×2
- Medium Revival Inhaler ×2
- Medium Energy Bag ×2
- Shell Credit ×10,000
No widely announced expiration date has been published for WUTHERINGGIFT. However, it can normally only be redeemed once on the same eligible account.
Recently Expired Wuthering Waves Codes
The most important change in this August 22 update is that F5F4D3B2A2 has now joined the expired list after its August 19 redemption period ended. The three Version 3.6 Preview Special Broadcast codes also remain expired after passing their August 9 deadline.
| Expired Code | Previous Rewards | Status |
|---|---|---|
F5F4D3B2A2 |
Wuthering Waves × Escape from Duckov Expedition Motorbike livery | Version 3.5 collaboration code; reported redemption period ended August 19, 2026 |
HEARTOFSWORD |
Astrite ×100 Advanced Resonance Potion ×3 Medium Revival Inhaler ×2 |
Version 3.6 Preview Special Broadcast code; expired August 9, 2026 at 08:59 PT |
ETERNALFLAME |
Astrite ×100 Advanced Energy Core ×3 Medium Nutrient Block ×2 |
Version 3.6 Preview Special Broadcast code; expired August 9, 2026 at 08:59 PT |
THEANSWER |
Astrite ×100 Advanced Enclosure Tank II ×3 Shell Credit ×20,000 |
Version 3.6 Preview Special Broadcast code; expired August 9, 2026 at 08:59 PT |
MECHANISMCITY |
Astrite ×100 Premium Resonance Potion ×4 Advanced Energy Core ×5 |
Version 3.5 Preview Special Broadcast code; expired |

Version 3.5 Preview Special Broadcast code; expired |
REUNION |
Astrite ×100 Premium Tuner ×20 Advanced Sealed Tube ×5 |
Version 3.5 Preview Special Broadcast code; expired |
Do not count the Version 3.6 Preview codes toward the current Astrite total. Although older pages may still display HEARTOFSWORD, ETERNALFLAME, and THEANSWER as active, their published August 9 redemption deadline has already passed.
Version 3.6 Preview Special Broadcast Codes
The Version 3.6 Preview Special Broadcast introduced three limited-time codes: HEARTOFSWORD, ETERNALFLAME, and THEANSWER.
Each code provided 100 Astrite plus additional upgrade or recovery materials, for a combined total of 300 Astrite.
All three codes expired on August 9, 2026 at 08:59 PT. They are now historical rewards and cannot be treated as active August 22 codes.
Preview Special Broadcast codes typically have much shorter redemption windows than permanent promotional codes. When future livestream codes appear, redeem them immediately rather than waiting for the corresponding game version to launch.

How to Redeem Wuthering Waves Codes
Wuthering Waves does not currently provide a verified public Global web redemption portal. Global codes should be redeemed directly through the in-game Settings menu.
The Redemption Code feature unlocks very early in the game, generally after reaching approximately Union Level 2 and completing the opening section of the main story.
Step-by-Step Redemption Guide
- Launch Wuthering Waves and enter the game using the account and character that should receive the reward.
- Continue the opening story until you have reached approximately Union Level 2 and unlocked the required Settings options.
- Open the Terminal from the main interface.
- Select the gear icon to open Settings.
- Open the Other Settings tab.
- Locate the Account section and select Redeem next to Redemption Code.
- Enter or paste the active redemption code.
- Select Confirm.
- Return to the Terminal and open the in-game Mailbox.
- Open the reward mail and claim the attached items before the displayed mail expiration date.
PlayStation notice: PlayStation 5 players use the same in-game Terminal and Settings redemption system. A separate PlayStation code website is not required for standard Wuthering Waves redemption codes.
Why Is My Wuthering Waves Code Not Working?
- The Code Has Expired: Preview Special Broadcast codes have very short claim periods. HEARTOFSWORD, ETERNALFLAME, and THEANSWER passed their August 9 deadline and should no longer work.
- The Collaboration Code Expired: F5F4D3B2A2 was tied to the Version 3.5 collaboration period and passed its reported August 19, 2026 redemption deadline.
- The Code Was Entered Incorrectly: Check every letter and number and remove spaces before or after the code. Copying directly from the active table is safer than typing manually.
- The Code Was Already Redeemed: Most Wuthering Waves codes can only be claimed once by the same eligible account or UID.
- The Redemption Code Menu Is Still Locked: Continue the opening story and raise your Union Level until the Redemption Code option becomes available under Other Settings.
- The Code Belongs to Another Region or Client: Make sure the promotion was distributed for the Global version you are playing.
- The Reward Mail Is Delayed: Return to the title screen, restart the game, and check the Mailbox again.
- The Reward Mail Expired: Successful redemption does not always place the reward directly into your inventory. Open the delivered mail and collect its attachments before its timer reaches zero.
- You Found the Code on an Outdated Page: Search results can continue showing old livestream codes even after their official claim windows end.
If F5F4D3B2A2, HEARTOFSWORD, ETERNALFLAME, or THEANSWER returns an expired-code message on August 22, that is expected. Their published or reported redemption periods have already ended.
What Are Wuthering Waves Codes?
Wuthering Waves redeem codes are promotional strings released by Kuro Games through Preview Special Broadcasts, social-media campaigns, community puzzles, collaborations, anniversaries, and other special events.
Depending on the campaign, a code may provide:
- Astrite
- Shell Credits
- Resonator EXP materials
- Weapon upgrade materials
- Healing supplies
- Tuners
- Sealed Tubes
- Forgery materials
- Limited cosmetic items
Astrite is a premium currency used to obtain Tides for character and weapon Convenes. Shell Credits are widely used when upgrading Resonators, weapons, Echoes, and Forte skills.
Premium Resonance Potions provide Resonator EXP, while Revival Inhalers and Energy Bags are consumable recovery items used during exploration and combat.
Where to Find New Wuthering Waves Codes
Preview Special Broadcasts: Kuro Games regularly releases three short-duration redemption codes during major version preview programs. Each recent broadcast set has generally provided a combined total of 300 Astrite.
Official social media: Follow the official Wuthering Waves X account, YouTube channel, Discord server, and regional social accounts for new promotions.
Community puzzles: The now-expired F5F4D3B2A2 code demonstrated that a valid redemption code can also be hidden inside an official puzzle or community campaign rather than announced during a livestream.
Collaborations: Crossovers and real-world promotional campaigns can provide limited cosmetic codes with different expiration rules from standard Astrite codes.
This page: Check the Last checked date near the beginning of this article. New codes should be added to the active table quickly, while expired livestream and event codes should move into the archive instead of remaining under Active Codes.
How to Earn More Astrite
Redeem codes are useful, but they provide only a small portion of the Astrite available during a full version cycle.
- Daily Activities: Complete your daily objectives consistently for repeatable Astrite.
- Limited-Time Events: Finish current event objectives before their deadlines.
- Quests: Main story, companion, exploration, and side quests can provide additional rewards.
- Exploration: Open chests, complete puzzles, and improve regional exploration progress.
- Achievements: Claim Astrite from completed achievement categories.
- Data Bank: Increase Data Bank progress and claim milestone rewards.
- Tactical Holograms: Clear higher difficulties for one-time rewards.
- Tower of Adversity: Complete rotating combat stages where available.
- Whimpering Wastes and Endgame Modes: Participate in current rotating combat content for additional rewards.
- Maintenance Compensation: Version 3.6 maintenance compensation included 300 Astrite and 2 Crystal Solvents for eligible accounts that created a character and unlocked Mail before the August 20 maintenance. The compensation remains claimable until the next version update.
Prioritize limited-time activities before permanent exploration. Permanent chests and quests can usually be completed later, while event rewards disappear once their activity period ends.

Use WUTHERINGGIFT if your account has never claimed it, check your Version 3.6 compensation mail if eligible, and watch future Preview Special Broadcasts closely because livestream codes usually have much shorter redemption windows than standard promotional codes.
