Zenless Zone Zero 2.0 drip marketing reveals Yixuan

HoYoverse has officially conducted the Zenless Zone Zero 2.0 drip marketing campaign by revealing Yixuan, an S-rank agent who also appeared in the version 1.7 story quest. The Season 2 preview also highlighted her among other characters from future updates.

Players have been waiting for Yixuan's arrival for quite some time now, as she boasts compelling character design. She could potentially bridge the gap between Proxy and the new Yunkui Summit faction. This article takes a closer look at her drip marketing reveal in ZZZ.

The Zenless Zone Zero Season 2 preview hinted at potential new playable characters, including Yixuan. The latest drip marketing further confirms her debut in version 2.0. She is, in fact, the leader of the Yunkui Summit faction and the mentor of Ju Fufu, Tiger Thiren from the Scott Outpost.

The official artwork HoYoverse shared shows symbols of a new element and fighting style. Perhaps Yixuan will be the only agent possessing the unique attributes. That said, she is an authoritative leader with a strong sense of duty towards her sanctuary.

Here’s what Ju Fufu has to say about Yixuan:

"Maybe loneliness isn't an issue for someone as strong as Shifu... but whenever I think about that, I can't help but feel an inexplicable sadness."

A Yunkui Summit disciple said the following after his/her talisman failed to receive Yixuan's evaluation:

"I'd rather be banished by my own talismans than face that look from Shifu again..."

Meanwhile, Pan Yinhu, the Panda Thiren, said:

"The way the Qingming Bird looks at me sometimes — it's exactly like Shifu's gaze! Not sure who's copying who here... but man, it's uncanny."

When could Yixuan release in ZZZ?

Yixuan is expected to debut in the ZZZ 2.0 update, given the drip marketing campaign and the preview, which previously revealed her, was rolled out for the same patch.

The update 2.0 should launch after version 1.7, around June 4, 2025. The speculation is based on the duration of the current patch, which is six weeks. Yixuan will likely arrive in the first half, based on the drip marketing order.
