Zenless Zone Zero Leaks Hint at New Skins for Astra Yao and Ellen Joe
Recent leaks suggest upcoming skin additions for Astra Yao and Ellen Joe in Zenless Zone Zero. These leaks, surfacing ahead of the highly anticipated January 22nd 1.5 update, paint a picture of potential new outfits and further content expansions.
The 1.5 update itself is packed with new content, including two new playable characters (Evelyn alongside the much-anticipated Astra Yao) and a significant story expansion. Astra Yao, a character long present in the game's lore, finally makes her playable debut in this update, generating considerable excitement among fans since her initial reveal at The Game Awards 2024.
Leaked in-game screenshots from sources like Donutleaker showcase a new skin for Astra Yao – a striking all-white dress with puff sleeves, a departure from her usual attire. This early skin release for a newly introduced character is intriguing. This leak corroborates information from another leaker, Palito, who also points to new skins for both Astra Yao and Ellen Joe within the 1.5 update's data. Further fueling speculation, rumors suggest the addition of Ellen's first Agent Story in Version 1.5, addressing a notable gap in content for this launch character.
New Skins: A Glimpse into the Future?
While the leaked skins for Astra Yao and Ellen Joe are exciting, their immediate availability in Version 1.5 remains uncertain. It's more likely these skins will be teased for future updates. However, the 1.5 update promises other significant cosmetic additions. A skin for Nicole Demara, an A-Rank unit, is heavily rumored, and its potential free acquisition through a limited-time event is a possibility.
Version 1.4 brought substantial gameplay enhancements, including character leveling and overworld exploration improvements. With 1.4's conclusion approaching, the official livestream for Version 1.5 is confirmed, promising detailed reveals on Astra Yao and Evelyn's abilities, upcoming events, and other additions to the RPG.
