This morning, Chinese developer HoYoverse (previously known as miHoYo) announced that its next game, Zenless Zone Zero, will be released on July 4 on all platforms: PC, PlayStation 5, Android, and iOS devices.
The free-to-play urban fantasy action RPG was first unveiled just over two years ago. HoYoverse has since conducted multiple tests on PC, mobile, and, recently, PS5. As usual for these games, a pre-registration milestone encourages users to pre-register so that everyone may get extra rewards at launch.
The official website's counter says 35.7 million users have already registered, unlocking 30K Denny coins, 8 Master Tapes, 5 Boopons, and 1 Agent Corin. The next milestone is at 40 million and would grant another 12 Master Tapes.
Here's the official overview provided by HoYoverse:
Two identities, one unique experience
In the near future, a mysterious natural disaster known as the "Hollows" has occurred. In this devastated world, a new kind of city has emerged - New Eridu. This last oasis has mastered the technology to coexist with the Hollows and is home to a variety of chaotic, boisterous, dangerous, and very active factions. As a professional Proxy, you play a vital role in connecting the city to the Hollows. Your story awaits.
Build your squad and fight fast-paced battles
Zenless Zone Zero is an all-new 3D action game from HoYoverse that offers a thrilling combat experience. Create a squad of up to three players and launch your attack with basic and special attacks. Dodge and parry to neutralize your opponents' counterattacks, and when they're stunned, unleash a powerful combo of chain attacks to finish them off! Remember, different enemies have different characteristics, and it would be wise to use their weaknesses to your advantage.
Different Factions and Intertwined Stories
Random Play can't operate without videotapes, and Proxies can't operate without agents. In New Eridu, clients from all walks of life will come knocking. So don't be fooled by their innocent and cute appearances, don't be afraid of those who tower over you and look dangerous, and don't turn away the fluffy ones who might shed fur all over your spotless floor. Talk to them, learn about their unique experiences, and allow them to become your friends and allies. After all, this is a long road, and only with companions will you be able to go far.
