Announced by global brand HoYoverse, Zenless Zone Zero Version 1.1 is coming on August 14. It’ll feature a new complex story between Qingyi, Jane, Seth and the criminal syndicate known as the Mountain Lion Gang. New challenges, new stories, new characters and “Inferno Reap,” a new Hollow Zero gameplay experience awaits players. The New Eridu Public Security area will also open to players. Various rewards are also waiting in various events such as Camellia Golden Week.
Two new S-Rank characters are also being added.
As an S-Rank Electric Stun character who fits in a variety of squads, Qingyi can inflict Daze to stun enemies. While Qingyi’s attack causes electric damage, she can build up “Flash Connect Voltage.” Once it reaches a certain level, she can trigger a powerful attack with this. Being Zhu Yuan’s trustworthy partner at N.E.P.S., Qingyi can also offer significant support to Zhu Yuan in combat.
Assuming a crucial role in Version 1.1’s storyline, Jane’s relationship with the player will be that of both friend and foe. As an S-Rank Physical Anomaly Agent, Jane can trigger “Passion State” by building up Passion Stream. This allows her to unleash rapid, multi-stage and deadly attacks while quickly inflicting Attribute Anomaly on enemies. However, before she joins the players’ squads, Proxies will face Jane as an enemy in combat due to her status as an important member of the Mountain Lion Gang. You can certainly count on her agile combat skills, but you might not feel the same when you are on the receiving end.
Beyond two S-Rank characters, the A-Rank Electric Defense character Seth is also ready to join combat. Aside from buffing his teammates with a shield, Seth’s weapon can also transform into a large sword. In addition, new S-Rank Bangboo “Officer Cui” will be able to assist Proxies in the Hollows.
Zenless Zone Zero is also introducing “Inferno Leap” to Hollow Zero, a challenge that can be attempted after completing the “Withering Garden” stage and related commissions. Players enter a time-limited battle with Nineveh in order to earn a wide range of in-game rewards upon success.
During Version 1.1’s themed event “Camellia Golden Week,” players can obtain Polychromes, A-level W-engine, and various materials by completing event commissions. Additionally, a variety of new in-game events and features such as Immersive Tactical Drill, First-Class Customer Service, and upgraded camera function with filters and selfie options will offer players fun new ways to enjoy the game!
Arriving on August 14, Version 1.1 of Zenless Zone Zero will be available on PS5, PC, iOS and Android. For more information, visit the game’s official website, follow their X, and stay tuned to Hardcore IOS.
