MiHoYo's upcoming action RPG, Zenless Zone Zero, unveiled new content in a recent pre-release stream. This version 1.0 livestream, airing before the game's July 4th release, offers a final glimpse at new playable areas and characters.
Launching on July 4th for iOS and Android, Zenless Zone Zero plunges players into a post-apocalyptic New Eridu, humanity's last refuge after the devastating Hollows event. Players assume the role of a "Proxy," exploring this urban fantasy setting—a departure from MiHoYo's usual sci-fi and fantasy worlds. This shift could potentially make Zenless Zone Zero the studio's most successful title yet.
High Stakes for MiHoYo
Zenless Zone Zero's July 4th launch adds to MiHoYo's already impressive game portfolio, significantly boosted by the phenomenal success of Genshin Impact. The game's urban fantasy setting distinguishes it from the sci-fi and fantasy themes of Honkai and Genshin Impact. The livestream prominently showcased music, underscoring its importance in the game's atmosphere and gameplay.
Will MiHoYo follow in Supercell's footsteps, creating a string of hit games? Or will Zenless Zone Zero be too much, even for MiHoYo? Only time will tell.
