Wuthering Waves Player Banned for Using Google Translate!

In a strange turn of events, a Wuthering Waves player recently received a 10-year ban just for using a simple translation tool. This issue occurred when the player, a new user at level 28, was trying to navigate the game in a language that wasn’t supported by the game itself.

To get around the language barrier, he used Google Translate on his phone. However, things took an unexpected turn when he switched to a Galaxy S25 Ultra. The problem happened when the player accidentally triggered a button on his phone that opened the Google Translate app while he was playing Wuthering Waves. The moment this happened, the game immediately banned his account, leaving him confused and frustrated.

Despite reaching out to customer service for help, the player received no solution, only generic responses for a week. To make matters worse, the player had just purchased the battle pass the day before the ban.

While it is clear that using third-party apps like Google Translate can violate the game’s terms of service, the situation raises questions about how such incidents are handled. The player wasn’t intentionally cheating or exploiting the game; they were simply trying to understand it better. It’s unfortunate that this led to such a severe consequence, especially considering the time and money spent on the game.

Hopefully, this player will be able to recover their account, but it’s a reminder to always be cautious about using external tools while gaming. While it’s understandable to want to enjoy a game in your native language, it’s important to be aware of how certain actions can result in unintended consequences.
