Recent whispers in the Zenless Zone Zero community are stirring up excitement as a leak hints at a fresh look for Yi Xuan, a character eagerly awaited in the game’s upcoming version 2.0. This anticipation builds as the game prepares for its 1.7 update, wrapping up the current cycle and introducing a pair of new S-Rank Agents to the roster.
HoYoverse is on the brink of dropping Zenless Zone Zero Version 1.7, which will introduce two standout agents. First in line is Vivian, an Ether Anomaly character straight from the Mockingbird faction. Following her will be Hugo Vlad, an Ice Attack powerhouse whose banner has fans buzzing more than any other. Players have been excited about both Vivian and Vlad since their initial reveal in Version 1.5. However, a recently released trailer has amplified fans’ expectations to astronomical levels, especially with the tease of Yi Xuan. She’s rumored to debut with a unique outfit, stirring quite the interest.
Notably, renowned leaker Seele Leaks has leaked images showing Yi Xuan sporting a different ensemble. She’s seen in a chic black dress, complemented by long sleeves, dark stockings, and matching boots—a sharp contrast to her default yellow jacket and white boots. Previous leaks suggested Yi Xuan would be an S-Rank Ether unit, adding more layers to her intrigue.
If the rumors bear fruit and Yi Xuan’s skin is indeed real, it would mark her premiere in Version 2.0. Typically, gacha games wait for a while before offering costume changes for new characters, but Zenless Zone Zero seems to be rewriting that playbook. A notable example is Astra Yao, who received an outfit variant as she debuted in the 1.5 update. Moreover, developers have confirmed Yi Xuan’s major role in the plot of Version 2.0, particularly as the leader of the Yunkui Summit group. Players might even catch a glimpse of her in the forthcoming 1.7 update.
A thrilling future lies ahead for Zenless Zone Zero. Version 2.0 is shaping up to be the substantial update fans have been craving, coinciding with its debut on Xbox in June. Additionally, those with Game Pass Ultimate memberships will gain access to exclusive in-game goodies, adding even more incentive to jump into the fray.
