What’s better than cake and party hats? Free pulls, new Agents, and a Bangboo mech named Lord Hercules. Zenless Zone Zero is hitting the big 1-year milestone with Version 2.0: Where Clouds Embrace the Dawn, and let’s just say the devs didn’t hold back. Yixuan is here with her elegant Rupture class playstyle, Ju Fufu’s bringing the heat with her awesome kit, and the Waifei Peninsula is finally opening its gates!
In this article, we’ll walk you through all the highlights of the latest update: new S-Rank Agents and W-Engines, sprawling new areas, quirky events, and HoYoverse’s best anniversary rewards to date. Let’s go!
New S-Rank Agents and W-Engines
Yixuan
Leading the charge in Phase 1 is Yixuan, an S-Rank Agent and head honcho of the Yunkui Summit—one of Waifei Peninsula’s most influential factions. She debuts the all-new Rupture class, boasting a dynamic playstyle with two Ultimate modes to adapt fluidly mid-combat.
Yixuan wields Auric Ink, a refined Ether energy that looks gorgeous and lethal. Phase 1 also features her signature W-Engine, Qingming Birdcage, designed to enhance her stylish, high-impact combat. If you’re into graceful destruction, she’s your gal.
Oh, and Astra Yao is also making a comeback with her own rerun banner.
Ju Fufu
Phase 2 introduces Ju Fufu, another S-Rank Agent from the Yunkui Summit. Don’t let her cute look fool you, she’s a fiery Stun Agent with a penchant for heat and chaos. She enters with her trusty W-Engine, Roaring Fur-nace, perfect for burning through Hollow scum in style.
Joining her in the second phase is Caesar with Tusks of Fury.
