Yixuan brings a unique fighting style with her Attribute Auric Ink and Specialty Rupture. Yixuan’s abilities allow her to ignore enemies’ Defense and deal all damage based on her Sheer Force, which can be dramatically increased according to her Attack and Max HP.

Beyond her unique damage mechanics, Yixuan also utilizes a special resource called Adrenaline instead of traditional Energy.

She possesses two distinct Ultimate modes for varied combat scenarios, allowing her to adapt to any challenge. Her prowess is comparable to that of a Void Hunter-level agent.

Her powerful Chain Attack grants the entire team the Tiger’s Roar effect. This incredible boost significantly increases your squad’s CRIT DMG and amplifies the damage dealt by both Chain Attacks and Ultimates.

After resolving the Sacrifice crisis, players embark on an exhilarating new journey to the Waifei Peninsula, a remote yet vibrant district of New Eridu. Under the guidance of Yixuan, the High Preceptor of Yunkui Summit, Proxies will delve deeper into the hidden secrets of Phaethon.

The main city of the region, Failume Heights, flourishes near the Lemnian Hollow, a location famous for its rare resource, Porcelume. Here, you can immerse yourself in the local atmosphere, exploring distinctive tea houses, pawnshops, and delightful dessert stalls.

Proxies will also take on the management of their very own Suibian Temple. You’ll be able to upgrade the temple’s facilities and earn valuable in-game rewards by dispatching Bangboos, completing commissions, and collecting essential resources from the Hollows.

New Hollow mechanics

The Lemnian Hollow is a double-edged sword: rich in valuable resources, but also teeming with danger.

A widespread and perilous Miasma infests the Hollow, causing formidable foes to enter a Miasmic Field state under certain conditions.

When in this state, enemies gain powerful shields and significantly enhanced abilities, making them even tougher to defeat.

To help you overcome these heightened threats, you can add several powerful new allies to your roster, bringing much-needed support to your expeditions.

Enhanced exploration in Zenless Zone Zero 2.0

Version 2.0 brings a brand-new 3D map and enhanced navigation features to make exploration more convenient than ever.

To keep you in the fight, the game devs are introducing Fissure Beacons. These new points of interest let Proxies restore HP, revive Agents, and teleport, getting you back into action more efficiently.

What’s more, new players who complete Season 1 Chapter 2 Interlude can now directly unlock and switch to Season 2’s main storyline.

To celebrate Zenless Zone Zero’s Xbox debut, an exclusive Xbox Starter Pack is available for pre-order in the Xbox Store that gives players free bonus items.
