Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ) is a game set in the dystopian post-apocalyptic world of New Emiru. The game portrays a melancholic setting where most of humanity has been wiped out by a disastrous supernatural event called Hollows.
HoYoverse wants us to uncover the mysterious event in-game and fans are anxiously waiting for more official information. Hoyoverse's annual online event, HoYoFEST 2023, is set to take place starting this month. The publisher may reveal more information about the game and reveal its release date.
Zenless Zone Zero: What we know about the upcoming game
Initially, Zenless Zone Zero was conceived as an anime-shooter game but later on, it was confirmed that it would build upon Rogue-like elements present in Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail, while also featuring a new storyline based on an apocalyptic setting.
HoYoverse has already released a couple of trailers, one of which showcases the characters and a few gameplay mechanics built into the game. While there are several elements present in this game from its predecessors like Genshin Impact and Honkai Impact 3rd, its main emphasis is to improve upon real-time combat and the intuitive gameplay style.
Players take on the role of a Proxy, a professional who guides people on exploration missions through the Hollows. Hollows have become industrialized and commoditized under the administration of New Emiru, which has further created tension and competitiveness between several factions present in the game.
As the player progresses, they will recruit new companions who will join their battle against the Ethereal monsters. Players can combine the abilities of their companions which allows for a pretty potent and enthralling gameplay experience. The recruitment system seems pretty similar to the one present in Genshin Impact.
Zenless Zone Zero: Release Date and Availability
HoYoverse has not yet announced a release date for Zenless Zone Zero. They just recently released their turn-based RPG Honkai Star Rail in April 2023, and with the popularity of Genshin Impact still going strong, it is highly unlikely that they might release ZZZ this year. However, there is a possibility that the game might get a release date in 2024.
Zenless Zone Zero was announced to be available on Windows, Android and iOS so far. There is a huge possibility that the game might also be launched on PlayStation considering Honkai Star Rail and Genshin Impact are available on the platform. It is important to take this information with a grain of salt as there has been no official confirmation regarding these. For further information, Check out ZZZ’s official website.
