HoYoverse is set to conclude the first season of its urban fantasy ARPG, Zenless Zone Zero, with a major update titled "Bury Your Tears with the Past." Scheduled for release on April 23rd, this Version 1.7 brings an intense and emotional finale as players delve into hidden truths within the game's world of New Eridu. Alongside new characters and gameplay features, the update will address the ongoing Sacrifice crisis that has been a pivotal element since the game’s inception.
The upcoming version introduces two S-Rank Agents, Vivian and Hugo, each bringing distinct combat styles. Vivian wields a rapier-parasol hybrid weapon, enabling fluid combinations and effective teamwork. Hugo, armed with a versatile suitcase-scythe, delivers devastating Ice-based attacks, particularly lethal against stunned adversaries. Additionally, Robin, a playful Bangboo companion, adds strategic depth by tossing unpredictable effect cards at enemies. Fans can also expect the return of beloved agents Jane and Lighter in limited banners, enhancing the roster's diversity.
Beyond combat enhancements, the narrative reaches a critical juncture as tensions escalate between Mockingbird and TOPS. Players, acting as Proxies, collaborate with Vivian to explore the aftermath of Hugo's descent into the Hollows. Meanwhile, a mysterious Void Hunter-class investigator enters the fray under mayoral orders, aiming to uncover the Exaltists' sinister plans. This dramatic storyline development promises to captivate audiences eager for resolution.
Outside the heat of battle, Version 1.7 offers engaging side activities. The "Say It With Flowers" event invites players to manage a floral shop, crafting personalized bouquets while unlocking new gameplay mechanics tied to the Quality Time mode. Furthermore, the returning Bangboo Bash now features a ranked mode, challenging participants through obstacle courses and survival tests, rewarding them with exclusive titles and currency.
As HoYoverse ushers in this climactic conclusion to Zenless Zone Zero's debut season, anticipation builds for what lies ahead. Available across multiple platforms from April 23rd, this update not only wraps up the current arc but also lays groundwork for future adventures in the post-apocalyptic world of New Eridu.
