Vivian gets a new skin; Soldier 0 Anby earns optional buffs
HoYoverse dropped a content buffet for Zenless Zone Zero during its Version 2.3 Special Program, and the banner lineup is the main course. Three new characters are set to debut, joined by coveted reruns that give latecomers another shot at meta-defining picks. For a gacha-driven action RPG that thrives on team synergy, this patch looks like roster refresh central.
The update isn’t just about pulls. Version 2.3 brings a new chapter to the main story, expanding the urban labyrinth with fresh beats and boss encounters. Side events promise a mix of arcade chaos and combat challenges, a formula HoYoverse has honed across its portfolio. If you’re stockpiling currency, this is your sprint window: pity planning, resource farming, and prebuild theorycrafting start now.
Cosmetics and QoL are along for the ride. Vivian gets a sleek new skin that leans into her style-first swagger, and Soldier 0 Anby receives optional buffs, hinting at a broader effort to keep older units viable without hard reworks. That’s good news for players who’ve sunk time into specific agents and want to keep them competitive in new content tiers.
The banner cadence suggests a healthy pipeline. New units typically bring novel mechanics—gap-closers, stance breakers, or team-wide energy management—that shake up the meta just enough to be exciting without invalidating existing rosters. The reruns show HoYoverse is listening: accessibility is as important as novelty, especially when multiplayer flexing and leaderboard runs are part of the ecosystem.
With early October looming, prep is everything. Map out your pulls, secure mats, and watch for drip marketing that reveals kits and synergies. If Version 2.2 was the warm-up, 2.3 looks like the spotlight—new faces to learn, old favorites to revisit, and a city that never stops moving.
