Overview of Zenless Zone Zero's Combat Design

The first episode of the Expert Challenge series has just been released, providing an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the combat design of Zenless Zone Zero. In this installment, the development team reveals fascinating insights into the creation of two upcoming Agents: Ukinami Yuzuha and Alice, set to launch in Version 2.1.

In this new video from HoYoverse, fans are treated to a glimpse of how these characters were meticulously crafted, with a focus on gameplay mechanics, visual design, and overall combat experience.

Yuzuha: The Candy-Cracking Anomaly Support

Ukinami Yuzuha was initially conceived with a unique blade-stabbing mechanic using her umbrella. However, when the initial design did not resonate, the team innovatively transformed her combat into a candy-themed explosion experience.

Her combat now features delightful effects that erupt into cookies, biscuits, and sweets, associated with her character attributes, making her both visually appealing and effective in gameplay. As the first general support for Anomaly teams, Yuzuha allows players to select which Agent's Anomaly Buildup Rate to enhance. Furthermore, she introduces a dual Assist Follow-Up attack feature, representing a significant evolution in combat mechanics.

Alice: The Noble Rapier with Symmetry Obsession

Alice, a Physical Anomaly Agent from the Spook Shack faction, brings stylish swordplay to Zenless Zone Zero, characterized by her elegant movements. Combining dash attacks and charged strikes, Alice's animations are a masterpiece of symmetry.

The attention to detail in Alice's design is outstanding, with centered camera angles during her Ultimate moves and intricate sword toss illusions that emphasize her grace. The addition of kaleidoscopic effects and subtle bunny-like cues, such as a back-kick on a Dodge Counter, enhances her character's personality and combat style.

What's Next for Zenless Zone Zero?

The development team has also hinted at exciting future content, including:

• A massive-sword Agent whose weapon will tower over the character
• A new martial arts DPS with combat mechanics triggered by player anger

With both Alice and Yuzuha launching in Zenless Zone Zero 2.1—Yuzuha arriving in Phase 1—it’s time for players to prepare for some of the most refined combat experiences yet!
