Zenless Zone Zero, HoYoverse's latest gacha roleplaying game, is launching on Thursday. The game is the latest from the studio that brought gamers Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail.
Since the game has 50 million preregistered to play, it's looking like HoYoverse has another big hit on its hands. Players who are interested can prepare while waiting one more day for the game to release. Here's what you need to do.
Once the servers go live, you'll be able to immediately jump in and start playing the game if you preloaded the assets. HoYoverse has a pretty good track record with game launches, so everything should happen on time. However, maintenance on a brand-new game launch can sometimes run over, so delays could happen.
It's a long time coming for fans of HoYoverse games. The Singaporean game developer first announced Zenless Zone Zero in May 2022 and teased it again at The Game Awards 2023. It wasn't until the end of May 2024 that the game received its official launch date. It's also launching on all supported platforms simultaneously. Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Real started on some platforms and eventually migrated to others.
The game is currently available for download on all supported platforms. If you launch the game before its release date, it'll download the additional assets the game needs to run. This saves you time by not needing to download it right as the servers go live. Here's how to do it on each platform.
