Zenless Zone Zero revealed the start date and time for its upcoming Version 1.5 "Astra-nomical Moment" for January 10. With each release, Zenless Zone Zero continues to evolve from its launch version back in July 2024, with Version 1.4 having had the biggest impact on the overall experience.
With Version 1.4's release back on December 18, 2024, Zenless Zone Zero added one of its most anticipated characters in Hoshimi Miyabi, a powerful Void Hunter and current chief of the game's Section 6 faction. Alongside Miyabi and the free S-Rank agent Harumasa, Version 1.4 also refined numerous aspects to Zenless Zone Zero, including making it easier to level agents with upgrade plans, the journey system for the Inter-Know game progression, and more. As Version 1.4 nears its end, HoYoverse is finally ready to talk about what's next.
Zenless Zone Zero Leak Reveals Leveling Materials for Astra Yao, Evelyn
A recent Zenless Zone Zero leak is hinting at the leveling materials players will need for Version 1.5 S-Rank characters Astra Yao and Evelyn.
In a post on social media, HoYoverse confirmed that the Version 1.5 special program livestream date is set for January 10. Version 1.5 is known as "Astra-nomical Moment" because of one of its biggest additions with new Zenless Zone Zero agents Astra Yao and Evelyn Chevalier. Fans got a brief look at the duo at the very end of Version 1.4's concluding narrative, as the Proxies assisted Astra in escaping an event for a day out on the town.
Zenless Zone Zero Version 1.5 Special Program Livestream Date
- January 10 at 19:30 (UTC+8)
While the social media post doesn't go into too many details for what fans can expect, the livestream is likely going to follow past special program examples. Typically, fans will see a new trailer, get to see the new characters in action, as well as get a look at all of the new content coming within that release. Fans will want to be on the lookout for a special Zenless Zone Zero redemption code, typically rewarding Dennies, upgrade materials, and Polychrome to be used in pulling for banner characters.
While fans will be eager to see official details from HoYoverse, there has seemingly been no shortage of leaks for Version 1.5 over the past couple of weeks. In addition to Astra and Evelyn character animations, Zenless Zone Zero leaks have hinted at new features and game modes to arrive with Version 1.5. Specifically, there seems to be a Bangboo Beauty Contest event, which lets players customize the appearance of Eous for a competition, potentially leading to the reward of a new skin for Nicole.

WHERE TO PLAY
Don't go into the Hollows.
I know, I know, there's Ether in the Hollows, bizarre creations, even heritage of the old civilization, all precious treasures. But don't forget, there's also spatial disorder, monsters and mutants running rampant, and ultimately, a disaster that could swallow the world. They are not a place where ordinary people should go.
So don't go into Hollows.
Or at least, don't go in alone.
If you insist on getting into danger, go to New Eridu first.
This city where the good and the bad mix has many people who need the Hollows: Powerful wealthy tycoons, gangs that stalk the streets, conspiracy nuts, and ruthless officials.
Make your preparations there, find strong allies, and most importantly—
Find a "Proxy".
Only they can guide people out of the maze-like Hollows.
Good luck!
