HoYoVerse has announced that the 1.5 Special Program for Zenless Zone Zero will air at 3:30 am PT/6:30 am ET on January 10, 2024. As with some of the past live streams for the game, members of the development team will appear to discuss new story quests, events, characters, and other additions.

People will be able to watch it on YouTube and Twitch. The length of the broadcast and the exact details about what new content and updates are going to be covered, however, are not currently known. However, past installments tended to tease which characters and factions would appear in new campaign quests, go over new equipment, and highlight events and their rewards.

The patch will be called ‘Astra-nomical Moment.’ This is to reference the official debuts of the brand-new characters Astra Yao and Evelyn Chevalier, who will be showing up as the two new playable units.

Both made appearances in a side-story chapter at the end of quests added in the 1.4 update. HoYoVerse even created an official social media account ahead of her official release in the game.

Astra Yao will be the first Ether character released in the game since Nicole Demara and Zhu Yuan. Like Nicole, she will be a Support-type unit. Evelyn, Astra’s personal bodyguard, will be an Attack agent who deals Fire damage.

As usual, a redemption code will be given out for Polychromes for players who watch the stream live. The company also said several players will be given mystery gifts.

Zenless Zone Zero is available now on the PS5, PC, and mobile devices, and the Special Program for 1.5 will appear at 3:30 am PT/6:30 am ET on January 10, 2024.

Ysmael

Ysmael “Eng” Delicana is a writer based in Davao City, Philippines. He earned his bachelor’s degree in economics at Ateneo de Davao University before continuing to teach part-time at the same university. While teaching was a fun gig, being a geek and a writer seemed to be his calling. His expertise includes fantasy shows and movies, comic books, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and popular RPG video games. Ysmael also excels at learning new things and getting to know new topics that are interesting yet foreign to him, and that’s why he can also be called a jack of all trades. He also works as a part-time writer for books about sports. As an avid fan of fantasy TV shows, video games, and books, Ysmael is fond of watching, playing, and reading things related to fantasy, magic, and mystical creatures. However, he is also a huge fan of anime, as he spends a portion of his time watching shonen anime. As long as something is interesting and worth his time, Ysmael tends to devote his effort to it, as he has been great at geeking out about a certain topic. Ysmael’s writing style tends to be quite conversational in the sense that he likes speaking to the readers instead of making them feel like they are reading something tedious. He picked up this during his teaching years because he needed to find ways to simplify topics that tend to be foreign and complex to students. Ysmael also writes for Comic Basics.
