Zenless Zone Zero Leaks Hint at New Skins for Astra Yao and Ellen Joe, Plus More in Version 1.5

Recent leaks suggest exciting additions to Zenless Zone Zero, including new skins for popular characters Astra Yao and Ellen Joe. While the 1.5 update, launching January 22nd, introduces new characters Evelyn and playable Astra Yao, leaked information points to future cosmetic updates for existing characters.

Astra Yao's highly anticipated in-game debut (first shown at The Game Awards 2024) is finally happening in Version 1.5. This S-Rank unit, along with her bodyguard Evelyn (also S-Rank), will be central to the update's main mission. However, leaks from reputable sources like Donutleaker and Palito reveal in-game assets for a new skin for Astra Yao – a striking all-white dress, a significant departure from her usual attire. The early introduction of a skin for a newly released character is unusual, fueling speculation.

These same leaks also indicate a new skin for Ellen Joe, another popular character whose Agent Story is rumored for inclusion in Version 1.5. This is especially noteworthy, as Ellen, despite being a launch character, has lacked the dedicated questline given to others.

Future Content, Not Immediate Release:

While the Astra Yao and Ellen Joe skins are strongly hinted at, their availability in Version 1.5 itself remains uncertain. It's more likely they'll be teased as upcoming content. However, the update is still packed with exciting features, including a highly anticipated skin for Nicole Demara, an A-Rank unit. The possibility of obtaining Nicole's skin for free through a limited-time event is a strong possibility.

Version 1.4 brought significant gameplay improvements, and Version 1.5 promises even more. The upcoming livestream will detail Astra Yao and Evelyn's abilities, upcoming events, and further additions to the game. Stay tuned for official announcements!
