Wuthering Waves is a highly anticipated action RPG, and it’s always annoying when you can’t even properly preload the game before its release. There’s a known issue where Wuthering Waves won’t open when using the Epic Games launcher, and here’s how to fix it.
How to Fix Wuthering Waves Running But Not Opening on Epic Games
Wuthering Waves uses its own launcher, and if you tried to launch it through Epic Games on PC, you’ve probably noticed that nothing happens. While there’s no direct solution, you can launch the game using the launcher.exe file in the game’s folder.
This is how you find it:
Do not use the launcher_epic file, as it will not work. After prompting for admin rights, the Wuthering Waves launcher will open and you can navigate through it like you would games like Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail. This is also where you can fully preload the game before it comes out.
