HoYoverse has confirmed that the next major update for urban fantasy ARPG Zenless Zone Zero, Version 2.4 titled “On the Precipice of the Abyss“, will launch on 26 November 2025. The update continues the unfolding storyline in New Eridu following the events surrounding Timesworn Hill.
In this version, the focus shifts to the old mining site buried beneath Lemnian Hollow, now reemerging as the Miasma recedes. With support from the Krampus Compliance Authority, a TOPS affiliated enforcement group responsible for disciplinary oversight, the Proxies investigate what lies deeper underground and within Yidhari’s dreamscape. Along the way, fleeting visions depict Sarah and Ye Shiyuan side by side, raising questions given Ye Shiyuan’s position as a senior member of Yunkui Summit and his apparent distance from the Exaltists and their Creator. At the same time, Ye Shunguang has ascended as the new master of the Qingming Sword. She joins the Proxies on a new journey to uncover the truth behind the recent crises, just as the mining site and long buried forces begin to stir once more.
Two new S Rank agents from the Krampus Compliance Authority will be added to the playable roster in Version 2.4. Dialyn is a Physical Stun agent who brings her background as a customer service specialist into combat through a system built around two resources, Customer Complaint and Positive Review. By managing these, she focuses on stunning enemies and can call teammates to immediately unleash their Ultimate abilities, boosting overall team damage output.
Meanwhile, Banyue, an S Rank Fire Rupture agent and respected martial arts master, enters with a style that fuses multiple techniques into flowing and powerful combinations. His combat design revolves around alternating between Adrenaline and Wrathful Fires to maintain continuous actions and smooth combo strings, rewarding players who can keep pace with his rhythm based gameplay.
Two additional Bangboo companions will also arrive in this update. Birkblick, aligned with Krampus, uses a multifunction sensor array that converts into a floating cannon during combat, scanning for targets before firing energy blasts. Bild N. Boolok, described as cheerful in tone, fights with a large block hammer that is used to smash opponents.
Version 2.4 will not only add these newcomers but also bring back previous agents Hugo (Attack – Ice) and Ellen (Attack – Ice) through its banners. The Bangboo auto chess event is set to return with new upgrades, including PvE focused special stages and exclusive rewards. Among these rewards is a free copy of Bild N. Boolok for participating players.
The social media channels for Zenless Zone Zero have also today shared that Zhao from the Krampus Compliance Authority will also be offered as a playable character in the future – very likely the first update of 2026.
