Kuro Games has teamed up with Galaxy Store to launch a pop-up store for their open-world action RPG, 'Wuthering Waves,' titled 'Chixia's After-School Promise' at the Samsung Store in Hongdae. The pop-up store will be open until the 22nd.

The pop-up is themed around the school that the popular 'Wuthering Waves' character, Chixia, attends. Visitors can experience her daily life through zones modeled after a classroom, a bus stop, and an after-school arcade.

The venue spans two floors. The first floor, which is open to walk-ins, features a gaming zone using the Galaxy S26 Ultra, a listening zone for the Galaxy Buds4 series, a chalkboard to leave secret messages for Chixia, and a photo card kiosk. Visitors can also experience the camera performance firsthand by observing a Verina figure from 'Wuthering Waves' in detail with the Galaxy S26 Ultra's 200MP camera, and by visiting the Super Steady zone to watch a scene of Chixia running, optimized for the phone's horizontal-fix Super Steady feature. The second floor is decorated as the 'After-School Arcade' mini-game zone and the 'After-School Stationery' shop, and operates on a 100% pre-reservation basis.

Limited edition merchandise is also available. The 'Galaxy S26 Ultra Wuthering Waves Chixia Accessory Edition' is limited to 2,000 units. This edition includes a total of 8 items, such as a Galaxy S26 Ultra Chixia magnet case, a Galaxy Buds4 Chixia pouch, and a Chixia acrylic LED diorama mood light, along with in-game item coupons and six 40% discount coupons for the Galaxy Store, priced at 322,000 won. A second wave of merchandise will be announced at a later date.

A variety of on-site events have also been prepared. Visitors can receive a limited-edition Chixia SD sticker by playing 'Wuthering Waves' on the Galaxy S26 Ultra and verifying their YouTube subscription, or by leaving a secret message for Chixia on the chalkboard. Sharing photos of the pop-up on social media will earn you a Chixia photo card. Additionally, the 'Galaxy Store Station' at the venue allows visitors to experience two 'Wuthering Waves Chixia' themes, and to commemorate the launch of the Galaxy S26 series, a Galaxy Store discount coupon event is held daily for the first 1,000 visitors.

Special guests include cosplayers Bboya (as Chixia) and Lua (as Lucilla), and the 'Wuthering Waves' mascot costume will also make appearances throughout the venue. The pop-up store is open from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM on weekdays and Saturdays, and from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM on Sundays.

A Kuro Games representative stated, "We prepared this pop-up so that our Rovers could experience an after-school session with Chixia in the real world," adding, "We have put plenty of effort into the limited editions and the upcoming second wave of goods, so we hope you stick with us until the end."
