New Event Leaked for Zenless Zone Zero Version 1.5

Summary

• A Zenless Zone Zero leak suggests a new event with a platformer game mode for Version 1.5.
• The leak hints at a temporary Grand Marcel event with a multiplayer platformer akin to Fall Guys.

A new leak from Zenless Zone Zero has unveiled an exciting event featuring a platformer-like game mode set to debut in Version 1.5. Scheduled for release in late January, this update will introduce new characters, Astra Yao and Evelyn, along with a variety of fresh content.

In December, Zenless Zone Zero rolled out Version 1.4, bringing two new playable characters and an S-Rank Bangboo into the mix. This update also added two permanent battle-focused gameplay modes. However, the game is known for its temporary events that offer unique gameplay experiences, such as the recent "Bangboo vs Ethereal" limited event, which introduced a tower defense mode featuring Bangboo. Now, it appears that another innovative gameplay mode is on the horizon for Zenless Zone Zero's next update.

Community leaker Palito has shared that a multiplayer platformer game mode will be introduced in Zenless Zone Zero during Version 1.5. Accompanying screenshots show stages resembling those found in popular titles like Fall Guys. This mode is expected to be part of the "Grand Marcel" event, which is likely to be temporary. While it's uncertain whether players will control their favorite characters or Bangboo in these stages, the event promises enticing rewards, including Polychromes and additional free pulls rumored for Version 1.5.

Zenless Zone Zero Leak Reveals Platformer Game Mode Event

While platformer gameplay is new to Zenless Zone Zero, HoYoverse, the developer, has previously incorporated a similar event in Honkai Impact 3rd's 6.1 update in 2022, known as "Midnight Chronicle." This event featured Fall Guys-like stages where players controlled chibi versions of Honkai Impact 3rd characters. Zenless Zone Zero might adopt a similar approach, though its popular Bangboo characters could also take the spotlight, given their popularity and existing use in modes like Hollow Zero.

Mark your calendars for January 22, as Zenless Zone Zero Version 1.5 is set to launch, bringing Astra Yao and her bodyguard Evelyn to the playable roster. Earlier leaks have also hinted at the game's first character skin for Nicole, a fan-favorite since launch, and rumors suggest that another day-one character, Ellen, may receive her own Agent Story in the upcoming patch.
