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. The 1.5 update, launching January 22nd, introduces new characters and content, fueling speculation around these cosmetic additions.

Astra Yao, a highly anticipated character whose in-game debut was revealed at The Game Awards 2024, is set to become playable in Version 1.5 alongside her bodyguard, Evelyn. Both will be S-Rank units, and the update's main mission is expected to center around Astra Yao's introduction. Leaks indicate she may receive a special skin early on—a stark white dress with puff sleeves, a significant departure from her usual attire. This early skin release is somewhat surprising given her recent introduction. These leaks are corroborated by other sources, including leaker Palito, who also points to a new skin for Ellen Joe within the 1.5 update's data. Further fueling anticipation, rumors suggest Version 1.5 will finally introduce Ellen's Agent Story, addressing fan requests for more content featuring her and her connection to the shark Thiren.

While the skins for Astra Yao and Ellen Joe are rumored, their availability in Version 1.5 remains uncertain. They may instead be teased for future updates. However, the update is anticipated to include a skin for Nicole Demara, an A-Rank unit. Given her rank, this skin might be obtainable for free through a limited-time event.

Version 1.4 brought significant gameplay enhancements, including character leveling and overworld exploration improvements. With Version 1.4 concluding soon, the Version 1.5 special livestream is confirmed, promising details on Astra Yao and Evelyn's abilities, upcoming events, and other additions to the RPG. The livestream will offer further clarification on the rumored skins and other exciting content.
