Zenless Zone Zero is an urban fantasy action RPG set in New Eridu, humanity’s last surviving city after the disaster of the Hollows. These anomalous dimensions bring terrifying Ethereals into the world, and players take the role of a Proxy, guiding people who venture inside. The premise ties the dangers beyond the city to its lively neighborhoods and the factions that shape life there.
Combat is built around responsive action rather than a single attack sequence: Basic and Special Attacks start assaults, dodges and blocks answer enemy strikes, and Chain Attacks link into finishing combos. Different foes have distinct strengths and weaknesses, so timing and choosing the right response matter. Between fights, players can take commissions, explore city blocks, and move from urban errands into Hollow expeditions, giving the adventure a rhythm that shifts between city life and hazardous missions.
Its distinctive appeal comes from combining character-led storytelling and a colorful cast with precise, combo-focused battles, while the visual design and music reinforce the city’s energetic atmosphere. For a player browsing activity, that context helps distinguish Zenless Zone Zero from games centered on multiplayer sessions: its listed format is single-player, and its core loop follows a Proxy’s journeys between New Eridu and the Hollows.
