The 1.5 update is very close to arrive and as usual by the title, this will have a lot of content for fans to enjoy, such as new characters, events and even some free surprises to continue enjoying in New Eridu.
All this will come in Zenless Zone Zero version 1.5.
Zenless Zone Zero, the popular video game of the company HoYoverse has just made a new live broadcast today, where a lot of new features of what will be its first update of the year 2025 to be released on January 22 were presented. Among these we have the arrival of two new characters: Astra Yao and Evelyn, as well as new events full of rewards for all fans to have enough currency to acquire these girls in their respective banners, but that’s not all, as it was also confirmed that several characters will have new skins, one of them being completely free.
New characters arrive in Zenless Zone Zero
Astra Yao (S-rank character)
One of the characters that will make her debut in Zenless Zone Zero in this version 1.5 is Astra Yao, the most popular star of New Eridu, who arrives to give a show in the Star Ring in commemoration of the approaching New Year and who will dazzle on the main stage surrounded by circular structures that enhance her image. But not all will be good news, as Astra Yao’s light is accompanied by darkness and a stream of conspiracies and evil plans are interwoven at the foot of the stage, endangering her safety. Although she will not be alone in her adversity.
As for her gameplay, she will be an S-grade agent, ethereal and auxiliary that has the ability to enter a state of “sublime aria”, where she can grant a damage bonus to the entire team, even being that this is maintained when changing agents within the field. But that’s not all, since Astra Yao will be the first agent in Zenless Zone Zero that can restore HP, so in addition to increasing the team’s damage and performing damage with his ultimate technique, he will be a great unit to recover life.
Evelyn (S rank character)
And as we said, Astra Yao will have help to overcome the problems, being that the protection and support comes from the proxies and Evelyn, the new S-rank character that will als arrive as part of version 1.5 in its respective banner. She is an S-grade agent, attacker and igneous, who can accumulate points of incandescent binding with her attacks and when she reaches the limit of points she executes a powerful chain technique. On the other hand, when using the ultimate technique for the first time, she will enter a state of flaming awakening, and if she launches this technique again, a new animation will be unlocked.
Snap (S-rank Bangbu)
Along with the new characters that will be part of this version, Zenless Zone Zero fans can look forward to the arrival of a new S-rank Bangbu, Snap, which will also enter the scene in this 1.5 version and will be available at the dedicated banner inside the title. Snap uses his camera to capture every moment worth remembering and will be a great addition to players’ equipment.
Ellen Joe and Qingyi return to Zenless Zone Zero in version 1.5
In addition to the arrival of Astra Yao and Evelyn in version 1.5, Zenless Zone Zero players will enjoy the return of two of the title’s most beloved characters: Ellen Joe and Qingyi, who will share banners with each of the new girls. Ellen Joe (attacker, glacial) will be available in the first part of the version, accompanying Astra Yao, while Qingyi (stunner, electric) will be available in her own banner in the second part alongside Evelyn.
Zenless Zone Zero 1.5 version 1.5 will feature new events
For its part, this new version of Zenless Zone Zero will feature new events and modes, such as, for example, to celebrate the “Arcade Festival”, a new mini-game called “Mach 25” will be launched, which will be available in the El Dedo de Oro arcade within the title, where players will have to drive different vehicles in races. Meanwhile, “Unusual Brigade” will include a new two-player PvP mode with seven new dream catchers, including our protagonists Wise and Belle, as well as members of the Cunning Hares.
In addition, the everlasting tower will have a new game mode: dead end in simulated combat training, where there will be specific combat effects, with each stage consisting of 10 floors which players will have to face one at a time. On the other hand, shiyu defense and risky raid will be updated alternately in version 1.5, thus giving much more variety to the combat. Also, a new game mode, “Zero Cavity Rioter Extermination,” will be added, where players will have to use certain unique agents, equipment and resonios in order to challenge different enemies.

Finally, this 1.5 version of Zenless Zone Zero will bring in addition to all the above mentioned a special event called “A day of shining desires” that will contain its own bangbus beauty contest known as “Ridu has boo”, which will allow players to change the appearance of Astra Yao, Ellen Joe and Nicole Demara. In this event, proxies will have to help Eus win the championship, being that the rewards will not only be up to par, but they will also be able to acquire Nicole’s skin completely for free.
