Rumor: Zenless Zone Zero Leak Reveals Duration of Future Patch Cycles

Zenless Zone Zero Update Roadmap Leaked: Extended Patch Cycles Ahead

Recent leaks suggest a significant expansion to Zenless Zone Zero's update schedule. The current patch cycle, it's claimed, will conclude with Version 1.7, followed by a Version 2.0 launch. This longer-than-anticipated cycle is projected to continue through Version 2.8 before transitioning to Version 3.0. This contrasts with other HoYoverse titles like Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail, which concluded their initial cycles at Version 1.6. This extended cycle, if accurate, would provide substantially more content for players.

Further fueling speculation, the same source indicates that 31 additional characters are in development. With the current roster standing at 26 playable characters, this points to a robust future for the game.

The information comes from reliable leaker, Flying Flame. While Version 1.7 remains some months away, anticipation is building for the imminent Version 1.5 update. This update promises a new main story chapter, an expanded game area, new events, and most excitingly, the introduction of two new S-Rank playable units: Astra Yao and Evelyn. Astra Yao is rumored to be a strong support character. Players are advised to prepare resources in advance.

Version 1.4, which featured the powerful Hoshimi Miyabi, concluded in late January. While initially met with some player concerns regarding potential censorship, the developers swiftly addressed the issue and provided compensation.

Key Takeaways:

• Extended Patch Cycles: Versions 1.7 -> 2.0 -> 2.8 -> 3.0
• Expanded Roster: 31 new characters planned.
• Version 1.5 Highlights: Astra Yao and Evelyn (S-Rank units), new story chapter, new area, events.
