Zenless Zone Zero Leaks Hint at New Skins for Astra Yao and Ellen Joe, Plus More in Version 1.5
Recent leaks suggest exciting additions to Zenless Zone Zero, including new skins for popular characters Astra Yao and Ellen Joe. While the 1.5 update, launching January 22nd, introduces new characters Evelyn and potentially a skin for Nicole, the leaked skins for Astra and Ellen may be teased for future releases.
Astra Yao, a highly anticipated character, finally makes her playable debut in Version 1.5, alongside her bodyguard Evelyn. Both will be S-Rank units, and the update's main story is expected to center around Astra's arrival. However, leaks point to special attention being given to both Astra and another day-one favorite, Ellen Joe.
Leaked in-game screenshots from Donutleaker showcase a new skin for Astra, featuring an all-white dress with puff sleeves, a departure from her usual attire. This early skin release for a newly introduced character is unexpected. This leak is corroborated by Palito, who also uncovered data hinting at skins for both Astra and Ellen in the 1.5 update. Further fueling speculation, rumors suggest Version 1.5 will finally include Ellen's Agent Story, a long-awaited addition given her launch-day debut.
While the Astra and Ellen skins are likely teases for later updates rather than immediate additions in Version 1.5, players can anticipate Nicole Demara's potential skin release. As an A-Rank unit, this skin may be obtainable for free via a limited-time event.
Version 1.4 introduced significant gameplay improvements, including character leveling and overworld exploration enhancements. With Version 1.4 concluding soon, the developers have confirmed a special livestream for Version 1.5, promising details on Astra and Evelyn's abilities, upcoming events, and other exciting additions to the RPG.
