During Tokyo Game Show 2023, HoYoverse confirmed that a console version of Zenless Zone Zero will be released. A previous trailer seemingly hints toward a PlayStation 5 release, just like Honkai: Star Rail.
Zenless Zone Zero is a new action RPG with an urban fantasy theme and fast-paced action gameplay. The new title boasts a “trendy and fresh aesthetic” style as players explore New Eridu, the last urban civilization that survived an apocalypse. As the Proxy, players must solve the mysteries of New Eridu and protect civilization from outside threats.
Zenless Zone Zero for Console
During the HoYoverse’s TGS 2023 Special Program, the end card confirmed that Zenless Zone Zero would release on “console” alongside the Android, iOS, and PC versions. However, specific consoles were not confirmed. According to Gematsu, the Gamescom 2023 teaser trailer for Zenless Zone Zero teased a PlayStation 5 release with the PlayStation logo, but HoYoverse did not clarify or provide further details.
Here’s an official excerpt from HoYoverse’s latest press release:
HoYoverse’s highly anticipated urban fantasy ARPG “Zenless Zone Zero,” which just released its latest PV at Gamescom 2023, continues to be extremely popular at Tokyo Game Show.
