The urban action RPG from HoYoverse is gearing up for a significant update, promising not only new characters but also engaging events and features that will enhance the player experience. Both Vivian and Hugo have been highly anticipated by fans, having been teased in previous events. Hugo made his debut in the Agent Story for launch character Lycaon and later appeared in Version 1.5’s “Grand Marcel Adventure,” where he competed in the “Ridu’s Got Boo” tournament. Vivian was featured prominently in the flagship event of Version 1.5, where she posed a significant challenge to Proxies.
With their official introduction, many players are eagerly counting down to their arrival in the game. A helpful new chart outlines the total number of Polychromes available in the Version 1.7 update. The latest leak detailed animations for both Vivian and Hugo, displayed on TV screens alongside their character models. These animations include stylized art of their names and the new “Mockingbird” faction emblem.
Vivian is expected to launch with Version 1.7 on April 23, while Hugo will be introduced in the second half of the update. In terms of gameplay, Vivian is positioned as an Ether Anomaly character, poised to be a powerful off-field DPS, enhancing Anomaly damage. Conversely, Hugo is set to take on the role of an Ice Attack character, offering players another option alongside well-liked figures like Miyabi and Ellen. Looking ahead, the urban action RPG has an exciting roadmap.
HoYoverse plans to introduce a “Season 2” update featuring a plethora of new characters and initiating the game’s second story arc. Additionally, with the first anniversary approaching this summer, fans can anticipate new skins for characters such as Belle, Wise, Miyabi, and the upcoming Yi Xuan, ensuring an exciting time ahead for Zenless Zone Zero enthusiasts.
