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. While the 1.5 update, launching January 22nd, introduces new characters Evelyn and potentially a Nicole skin, the leaked skins for Astra and Ellen are likely teases for future updates rather than immediate additions.
Astra Yao, a highly anticipated character whose in-game appearance debuted at The Game Awards 2024, makes her playable debut in Version 1.5. Leaks, corroborated by multiple sources including Donutleaker and Palito, showcase an all-white, puff-sleeved dress skin for her, a stark contrast to her usual attire. This early skin release is surprising, given her recent introduction.
These leaks also point towards a new skin for the popular launch character, Ellen Joe. The 1.5 update may also include Ellen's first Agent Story, addressing fan requests for more content featuring her and her connection to the shark Thiren.
While the Astra and Ellen skins are likely previews, Version 1.5 is expected to include a skin for the A-Rank unit, Nicole Demara. This skin may be obtainable through a free, limited-time event.
Version 1.4 brought significant gameplay improvements, and the upcoming 1.5 livestream will detail Astra and Evelyn's abilities, future events, and other additions to the game. The 1.5 update promises a wealth of new content, even if the leaked skins may not be immediately available.
