Zenless Zone Zero is officially on the market as the latest action RPG, and it features a myriad of gameplay elements, such as additional abilities for characters, an HDD system, and more.

The multiplayer experience in ZZZ is currently limited to arcade games. This is a neat feature that allows you to try out some retro titles from within the hub. You can try them out at the Goldfinger Arcade located opposite the noodle shop on Sixth Street.

This is basically one of the many vendors from ZZZ, so you can teleport to the location directly using the Navigation system. Upon arriving at the store, interact and select Arcade Mode. Once you choose a game from the catalog, it will put you through a matchmaking process.

Use the plus symbols on the bottom right of the screen to invite your friends for the multiplayer experience. You can also click on Match to get paired with random Proxies on your server.

Types of multiplayer in ZZZ

As specified, ZZZ does not have many multiplayer game modes, and the arcade is currently the limit. However, HoYoverse might add co-op content in the future, considering Reckless Challenge (currently Notorious Hunt) had a matchmaking feature during the closed beta.

Until then, tune into the following mini-games at the arcade to compete with your friends:

  • Snake Dual: This is a classic snake game where your goal is to navigate the serpent towards food to increase your score.
  • Soul Hounds: In this arcade title, you can control a hound-like creature to dig blocks while dodging the falling debris. Scores will be allotted based on how deep you go into the abyss.
