Highlights
- Zenless Zone Zero leaks hint at new playable characters like Asaba Harumasa and Yanagi, adding more diversity to the game's lineup.
- The game's combat mechanics draw inspiration from Street Fighter 6, offering a unique tag-out system that sets it apart from other RPGs.
- Fans are eagerly anticipating the release of more support and stun characters to balance out the current DPS-heavy roster in future updates.
Zenless Zone Zero leaks revealed several characters that are rumored to come out in future updates. Released in early July, Zenless Zone Zero is HoYoverse's latest gacha title, which is an action RPG set in the sci-fi city of New Eridu.
Similar to Honkai Impact 3rd and Honkai: Star Rail, the story of Zenless Zone Zero deals with an apocalyptic-level disaster known as Hollows, which created disoriented dimensions that are teeming with monsters called Ethereals. Many Agents from different factions also enter these dangerous dimensions to gather Ether data, hunt for treasure, and complete commissions with the guidance of the Proxies named Belle and Wise.
Right from the start, Zenless Zone Zero already offers a diverse selection of S and A-rank characters, including the limited-time banner characters Ellen Joe and Zhu Yuan. But recently, prominent leaker Ubatcha tweeted a list of potential playable characters, such as Asaba Harumasa, Yanagi, Hoshimi Miyabi, Hugo Vlad, and Rokudousuriel. Apart from Ubatcha's leaks, Reddit user John-Leonhart also compiled all the leaked characters and their rumored rarities, attributes, and fighting styles. The master list also includes new names like Caesar, Burnice, and more.
Zenless Zone Zero Leaked Characters Explained
Zenless Zone Zero has already introduced some of the rumored playable characters in the early-game story, like Hoshimi Miyabi and Asaba Harumasa. This is why many fans have expressed their excitement about the leaked Zenless Zone Zero characters and their possible ranks and roles in the game moving forward. It's also important to note that this information isn't final, and it's still subject to change, so fans should take the character leaks with a grain of salt.
Hoshimi Miyabi and Asaba Harumasa are colleagues from the Hollow Special Operations Section 6, or simply Section 6.
Although it was compared with Genshin Impact's slash-and-dash combat, Zenless Zone Zero's combat and tag-out system feel more like a fighting game, especially since it's inspired by Street Fighter 6. So, it will be interesting to see how the meta will shift as new Agents get released down the line. Many fans are noticing that a lot of the rumored characters are DPS-heavy, so there are already calls for more support and stun characters to hopefully come out in future updates to balance their teams out.
For now, Zenless Zone Zero fans are immersing themselves in the unique story and environment while leveling up their Agents. All while farming Polychromes and upgrade materials for upcoming S-rank banner characters Zhu Yuan, Qingyi, and Seth Lowell.
