Each update introduces new characters, and now it's time to take a look at Wuthering Waves' Lupa, introduced in Septimont's chapter. She's a five-star, but someone Rovers hadn't seen in the game before her release. She uses the fusion element and has a really cool warrior-influenced design.

Keen to save up for her? Get all the new Wuthering Waves codes in our guide, then check out the Wuthering Waves banner schedule to see if there's anyone else you might like to pull - we recommend Wuthering Waves' Changli or Wuthering Waves' Brant as fusion-based teammates.

Who is Lupa?

Lupa is a five-star resonator who uses the fusion element and a broadblade weapon. She has her own signature weapon, which is tailored to her kit and amplifies her personal damage. She works very well with fellow fusion five-stars Brant and Changli, as well as Encore.

She's a brand new character to the story, and is introduced as a gladiator hailing from Septimont. You can see a silhouette of this new city-state in her splash art, and resonators will go there in future updates as Kuro Games adds more of Rinascita.

Who are Lupa's voice actors?

You may recognize Lupa's English voice - it's Kaja Chan, who plays Mio in Split Fiction. In Chinese, she's played by Shuo Xiaotu, and in Japanese, Takahashi Minami. Her Korean VA is Kim Ye Reong.

For you gacha game fans, we've got plenty of stuff to help you keep busy before Lupa releases into the game. Here are all the Honkai Star Rail codes, Genshin Impact codes, and Zenless Zone Zero codes so you can pull a new character to build.
