The urban sprawl of New Eridu is about to get a whole lot more chaotic with the release of the Zenless Zone Zero 2.4 update. HoYoverse, the studio known for titles like Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail, is injecting fresh content into their action RPG, promising a deeper dive into the city’s mysteries and its colorful cast of characters. Two new agents, a slew of events, and a continuation of the main storyline are all on the table, signaling a significant content drop for players eager to explore the enigmatic world of ZZZ.
This update isn’t just about adding more to do; it’s about refining the core experience. From new combat mechanics to enhanced character interactions, Zenless Zone Zero 2.4 looks poised to address player feedback and expand on the game’s already intriguing lore.
The headliners of this update are undoubtedly the two new playable agents: Dialyn and Banyue. Each brings a unique combat style and backstory to the table, promising to shake up team compositions and strategies.
Dialyn is an Agent
On the other end of the spectrum, Banyue is a versatile DPS agent dealing Fire damage and focused on Rupture. She’s a master of combos, chaining Basic Attacks into devastating EX Special Attacks. Banyue offers a more aggressive playstyle, rewarding players who can master her diverse attack patterns.
No update is complete without new gear to chase. Zenless Zone Zero 2.4 introduces two new S-Rank W-Engines:
- Yesterday Calls (Stun): Obtained through the “Dissonant Sonata” Signal Search.
- Wrathful Vajra (Rupture): Obtained through the “Dazzling Choir” Signal Search.
These W-Engines promise to further enhance the capabilities of Stun and Rupture-focused agents, opening up new build possibilities.
And it’s not just about weapons; even your Bangboo companions are getting an upgrade. Birkblick, a new S-Rank Bangboo, joins the fray, along with the A-Rank Bild N. Boolok, obtainable through the “‘En-Nah’ Chess Saga” event.
The narrative threads continue to unravel with Season 2 Chapter 5, “On the Precipice of the Abyss.” As the chapter description ominously states, “When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes back.” This suggests a darker, more introspective turn for the story, delving deeper into the mysteries surrounding New Eridu and its inhabitants.
Players can access this chapter after completing Season 2 Chapter 4 “Memories of Dreams Bygone.” For those eager to jump ahead, the Advance Screening function offers a sneak peek after unlocking Notorious Hunt in Season 1 Chapter 2.
Zenless Zone Zero 2.4 is packed with new events, offering players a plethora of opportunities to earn rewards and test their skills. Highlights include:
- All-New Program: A 7-day login event rewarding players with Encrypted Master Tapes.
- “En-Nah” Chess Saga: A new event for players who have reached Inter-Knot Lv. 15.
- Neo Golden Mecha: Explore the “Fallen Mecha Stronghold” in this limited-time event.
- Simulated Sequence Showdown: A challenging event for high-level players (Inter-Knot Lv. 22).
- Advanced Bounty: Area Patrol & Data Bounty – Combat Simulation: Double rewards for a limited time.
Beyond the headline features, Zenless Zone Zero 2.4 brings a host of quality-of-life improvements and bug fixes. These include adjustments to the user interface, optimizations to character models, and fixes for various gameplay issues.
One notable change is the renaming of “Routine Cleanup” to “Area Patrol,” a purely textual change that doesn’t affect gameplay. Additionally, the developers have optimized the probability of S-Rank Bangboo appearing in BooBox, addressing player feedback regarding the rarity of these companions.
The Zenless Zone Zero 2.4 update is a testament to HoYoverse’s commitment to supporting and expanding their latest IP. With new agents, engaging events, and a continuation of the main storyline, players have plenty to look forward to as they delve deeper into the neon-lit streets of New Eridu. Whether you’re a seasoned veteran or a newcomer to the world of ZZZ, now is the perfect time to jump in and experience the game’s unique blend of action and intrigue.
