Wuthering Waves is a rich game with stunning graphics. To get the most out of it, why not play it on your computer and enjoy the comfort of a big screen? There are several ways to play Wuthering Waves on your PC or Mac. We'll tell you all about them here, in the rest of this guide.
If you have a Windows PC, there are several ways to play Wuthering Waves on your PC: via an Android emulator (we recommend BlueStacks), via the official emulator, or directly from the Epic Games Store.
Playing WuWa on Windows via an Android emulator
Android emulators are tools that allow you to simulate an Android environment on your PC. There are several emulators available, but we highly recommend BlueStacks. High-performance and versatile, it lets you run the vast majority of Android games, including Wuthering Waves. The latest version of the emulator, BlueStacks 5, is definitely the best option.
In the BlueStacks Play Store tab, search for Wuthering Waves.
Click on Install.
In just a few minutes, you'll be playing Wuthering Waves on your PC. Don't hesitate to consult our guide to optimising Bluestacks performance for a comfortable experience.

Play Wuthering Waves on PC with the official emulator
Like other mobile games publishers such as FunPlus and Lilith Games, Kuro Game offers its own emulator for playing Wuthering Waves on PC.
All you have to do is go to the official WuWa website and click on the "Windows" button. You can access the official site by clicking on the button below:
While Wuthering Waves is available on Android, iOS and via emulators, you can also play it via the Epic Games Store, the Epic Games platform.
If you choose this option, you'll need to start by installing the Epic Games Store on your PC. Then click on the link below to install the game for free.
If you want to play WuWa on a Mac, the possibilities are a little more limited. Kuro Game's official emulator and the Epic Games Store version are only compatible with Windows computers. To play Wuthering Waves on an Apple PC, you'll need a compatible emulator. We recommend BlueStacks 4 (compatible with Intel processors and versions prior to High Sierra) or BlueStacks X, its cloud gaming version.
Here again, there are fewer iOS-compatible Android emulators than there are Windows-compatible tools. We therefore recommend that you consult our comparison of the best Android emulators for Mac, to find the one that best suits your needs.
Why play Wuthering Waves on a computer?
Wuthering Waves is available on Android and iOS, but we strongly encourage you to play it on your computer for a number of reasons.
Enjoy WuWa graphics on the big screen
Wuthering Waves, like other games such as those from miHoYo, features superb graphics and beautiful environments, which you can discover as you explore the past of the Nomad, the hero you play as. The characters' charadesigns are equally well thought-out, so it would be a shame not to enjoy them on your computer's big screen !
More precise controls on Windows PC or Mac
WuWa is a fast-paced game whose combat mechanics are based on parrying with QTEs. Playing Wuthering Waves on PC and Mac lets you use your keyboard/mouse, or even a joystick, for far more precise controls.
Enjoy Wuthering Waves cross-platform on PC and mobile
Kuro Game's game is cross-platform, meaning you can recover your progress when you switch from mobile to PC, and vice versa (as long as you choose the same server!). So there's no reason not to play WuWa on your computer!
You now have all the information you need to play Wuthering Waves on your PC or Mac via emulators or the Epic Games Store. Don't forget to check out our other tips and tricks on WuWa to get the most out of your experience!
