Since its successful launch in 2024, Zenless Zone Zero has rapidly gained popularity, even earning a nomination for "Best Mobile Game" at The Game Awards. The game's recent collaboration with McDonald's further solidified its position in the gaming industry. However, players have been eagerly anticipating the next update to introduce new characters, storylines, and features.
According to a reliable leaker, Flying Flame, the current patch cycle will culminate with version 1.7. Following this, the game will move on to version 2.0 and eventually conclude the cycle with version 2.8 before transitioning to version 3.0. This is in contrast to other HoYoverse titles like Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail, which concluded their initial patch cycles with version 1.6. This suggests that Zenless Zone Zero may have a more extended content cycle, providing players with more opportunities to explore the game's world.
Furthermore, the same leak suggests that developers have planned for the addition of 31 new characters in future updates. With 26 playable characters already available, this indicates that the roster will continue to grow significantly.
While version 1.7 is still months away, players can look forward to the upcoming version 1.5 update, which is expected to introduce new characters, a new region, and various events. Astra Yao and Evelyn are two highly anticipated S-rank characters that will be joining the roster in this update.
The leaked roadmap has generated significant excitement among the Zenless Zone Zero community, as it provides a glimpse into the game's long-term future. With its engaging gameplay, stunning visuals, and constant updates, Zenless Zone Zero is poised to become one of the leading mobile RPGs in the market.
