Zenless Zone Zero's Version 1.5 update introduces a significant change: the return of previously released S-Rank agents. This marks a departure from the game's previous strategy of solely introducing new agents with each update, aligning it more closely with the rerun banner systems seen in other HoYoverse titles like Genshin Impact.
Version 1.5 will be divided into two phases. Phase 1 (January 22nd - February 12th) features the new Ether agent, Astra Yao, alongside a rerun banner for Ellen Joe (originally from Version 1.1). This phase also includes Ellen Joe's Agent Story. Phase 2 (February 12th - March 11th) introduces Evelyn Chevalier and a rerun banner for Qingyi (also from Version 1.1). Both rerun banners will include the agents' respective W-Engines.
This update addresses fan requests for rerun banners, providing players who missed previous releases or are new to the game a chance to obtain these coveted S-Rank agents. The announcement confirms earlier rumors about new character outfits. Version 1.5 will offer three new outfits: "Chandelier" for Astra, "On Campus" for Ellen, and "Cunning Cutie" for Nicole. Notably, Nicole's "Cunning Cutie" outfit will be a free reward from the "Day of Brilliant Wishes" event.
