HoYoverse Reveals Launch Date for Zenless Zone Zero Season 2 & Xbox Port

HoYoverse is well known for its iconic gacha games like Genshin Impact and the Honkai series. Its newest game, Zenless Zone Zero, launched in 2024, bringing players to a brand-new urban fantasy world. Until now, Zenless Zone Zero has been available on PC, mobile, and PS5, but not Xbox consoles. But luckily for Xbox console players hoping to get in on the gacha game action, Zenless Zone Zero‘s second season launch happens right alongside the game’s official arrival on Xbox Series X|S. So, whether you’re ready for new seasonal content or eager to finally experience the game on Xbox, mark June 6th on your calendars, HoYoverse fans!

Zenless Zone Zero arrived in July 2024, bringing players to a post-apocalyptic world called New Eridu. This urban setting gives the game a slightly different flavor, though it’s still undeniably a HoYoverse entry. Since its release, ZZZ has seen a number of updates adding onto the story and gacha options to keep things exciting for players. But now, the game is about to finally enter its second season, marking a big moment for Zenless Zone Zero. Before we dive into the details, check out the brand-new teaser trailer for ZZZ Version 2.0:

Season 2 of Zenless Zone Zero will be called “Where Clouds Embrace the Dawn.” It’s set to launch on June 6th, which is also when the game will finally be available on Xbox. As you might expect from a major seasonal update, Zenless Zone Zero version 2.0 will bring in a huge influx of new content.
