Is Wuthering Waves the “Copycat” of Genshin Impact?
The origin of this discussion stems from a well-known leaker associated with Wuthering Waves. According to reports, the character Phoebe from this game is currently facing a series of serious glitches. If these errors occur, Phoebe may be able to traverse water surfaces, making her the first character in Wuthering Waves with this ability.

In terms of gameplay, the ability to traverse water surfaces that Phoebe exhibits is strikingly similar to the character Furina from Genshin Impact, which recently debuted. However, a key difference is that Phoebe is categorized as a 5-star Spectro (Light) character, while Furina does not have any direct correlation to the ability to traverse water surfaces.


Fandom of Both Games in Heated Debate, Game Publisher Remains Silent
In reality, the character Phoebe has yet to be officially released, and she is only expected to appear in version 2.1. Any occurrences during gameplay could potentially change and be corrected in the future. However, the similarities in their abilities have led to heated debates among the fandoms of Wuthering Waves and Genshin Impact.

Currently, the team behind Wuthering Waves has not released any official response regarding the leaked gameplay involving Phoebe. Nevertheless, given the current situation, it is likely that the game will need to clarify its stance and reaffirm information with the community soon.
