Uncharted Waters Origin Launches Investment Season 4: Eastern Wave

Uncharted Waters Origin has launched its Investment Season 4: Eastern Wave, which will run until December 14. This new season for the free-to-play open world RPG is inspired by the voyages of Ming Dynasty explorer Zheng He, with content focusing on the South China Sea, particularly around Quanzhou and Macau. Players will gain access to exclusive trade goods such as giraffes and resources tied to fabrics, textiles, and livestock.

The Great Adventure content is introduced. Each day, players will receive special coordinates that lead them to Land Exploration opportunities. Successful expeditions yield rewards like the Season Investment Certificate and the new Grade 25 Build Request, which is an important material for constructing advanced ships. Five new Grade 25 vessels — the Large Corvette, Soleil Royal, San Felipe, Large Fu Ship, and Djong — have been added too. These ships require new high-level shipbuilding materials or upgrades from existing Grade 24 vessels.

There’s also the Stage 2 Transcendence to the Mate Transcendence system. Admirals and Mates who have already reached Stage 1 can now extend their level cap by an additional 20 levels, and Stage 2 provides another +20 beyond that.

Additionally, there are Autumn-themed events running until October 28. The Fall Leaves 14-Day Attendance Event provides Decorative Fall Leaves, which can be combined with Old Chests to create Fall Leaves Chests containing items such as S-grade contracts and Enhance Protectants. And, the Moon Rabbit’s Secret Recipe Note lets players craft festive foods like Songpyeon, Mooncakes, Dango, and Roasted Chestnuts. These provide Fallen Leaf Tokens, which can be exchanged for items like the new Transcendent Tokens, fortifiers, and growth tools.

The Full Moon 7-Day Attendance Event offers more food-related rewards from October 3 to October 28, while the Moon Festival Production LV Relief Event runs until October 12. The latter eases production requirements for creating valuable items such as Fortifiers and Enhance Protectants.
