In Zenless Zone Zero either ZZZ the players will enter with their squads in the Empty, labyrinthine spaces where they will have to face some beasts called Ethreos, to fulfill missions and obtain rewards. The combat system promise to be “fluid” and “cinematic”forcing the player to toggle between different characters and perform combos based on QTE.
In the press release they anticipate that the title will have mechanics roguelike and on the official website it is explained that the characters that the players will control, called Proxy, they lead a double life as a footman and a hunter or hunter of Ethers, so there may be social elements in the streets of New Eriduthe city that presents ZZZ.
The keys to history: a anime cyberpunk
At the moment no further information has been revealed about the gameplaybut I know about the game universe: “Players will take on the role of a ‘Proxy’ and embark on an adventure with a diverse group of peers to conquer the unknown enemies and unravel the mysteries of New Eridu, the last refuge of urban civilization“.
“Contemporary civilization has been destroyed by a supernatural disaster known as the ’empties’. They grow exponentially in the air, creating messy dimensions where mysterious monsters known as the ‘Ethers’ roam freely”, continues the synopsis. The title has a clear component cyberpunk: “New Eridu, the last urban civilization to survive the apocalypse, managed to prosper by acquiring the technology to extract the valuable resources of the Vacos“.
“As New Eridu became the miracle city and attracted more and more residents, so did the massive exploration of the Voids for their expansion life. The Voids industrialized and monetized under city administration, which gradually increased the tension between monopolistic companies, gangs, conspirators and fanatics“. The proxies that control the players they will help the people of the city who want to explore Vacos for various reasons. These raids will offer battles, rewards, and plot information.
