Zenless Zone Zero Version 1.5 launches January 22nd, bringing players two new agents, Astra and Evelyn, alongside new game modes, optimizations, and more. HoYoverse maintains its consistent update schedule, ensuring a steady stream of fresh characters and content for players.
Version 1.4 marked a significant milestone, concluding several launch events and introducing the highly anticipated Hoshimi Miyabi. As Version 1.4 concludes, HoYoverse unveiled Version 1.5's features in a dedicated Special Program livestream.
The highlight of Version 1.5 is undoubtedly the addition of two new S-Rank Agents. Astra Yao, an Ether Support agent (a rarity, joining only Nicole and Zhu Yuan), arrives in Phase 1, alongside her W-Engine, Elegant Vanity. Phase 2, starting February 12th, introduces Evelyn Chevalier, a Fire Attack Bodyguard, and her W-Engine, Heartstring Nocturne.
Beyond Astra and Evelyn, Version 1.5 offers a wealth of new content. A new special story unfolds following the conclusion of the main narrative in Version 1.4. Players can acquire the S-Rank Bangboo unit Snap, participate in new check-in events, enjoy further game optimizations, and experience evolutions to existing activities. A new Hollow Zero phase, "Cleanse Calamity," and a new Arcade game, "Mach 25," are also introduced. New costumes for Ellen, Nicole, and Astra Yao add further visual flair.
A highly anticipated feature finally arrives with Version 1.5: banner reruns. Mirroring HoYoverse's other titles, Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail, Zenless Zone Zero allows players to obtain past S-Rank agents. Phase 1 features Ellen Joe and her W-Engine, while Phase 2 introduces Qingyi and her W-Engine.
