HoYoverse's next game, Zenless Zone Zero, finally has a release date. Players can't wait to get in on the fun, causing pre-registration numbers to skyrocket to heights we've never seen before.
why Zenless Zone Zero has a BETTER WISH SYSTEM than Genshin and Honkai: Star Rail
As of writing on May 29th, Zenless Zone Zero has a pre-registration count of 36,246,778 players. The next and final pre-registration milestone is 40 million, and it’s surely only a matter of time before fans reach this mark. 36 million is a monumental number, especially when you consider previous HoYoverse games, namely Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail. Both games reached around 10 million pre-registrations, which pales in comparison to Zenless Zone Zero.
As with any pre-registration, reaching these milestones will earn players multiple rewards to get a head start on their launch experience. So far, players have unlocked 30,000 Denny (the main currency), 8 Master Tapes (standard banner pulls), Agent Corin, and 5 Boopon. Reaching the final milestone will earn another 12 Master Tapes that can be spent on standard or beginner (if there is one) banners.
Zenless Zone Zero is the next gacha action RPG from HoYoverse, set in the urban metropolis of New Eridu. The visual style is somewhat similar to that of the Persona series, but unfortunately you can’t explore the world as you please, as it’s not an open-world game. There’s an open space that serves as your base where you can freely walk around and enter battle levels. The combat is also a bit different from what you might have seen in Genshin Impact. On top of the normal character skills, there’s a perfect dodge and parry mechanic, similar to Kuro Games’ recently released Wuthering Waves.
