Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ) is a masterclass in urban fantasy action. HoYoverse has outdone themselves with the style here—it’s punchy, colorful, and dripping with personality. The combat is the real highlight; it feels significantly more kinetic and 'crunchy' than Genshin Impact. The parry and swap mechanics are incredibly satisfying, making every encounter feel like a choreographed action movie.
The world-building in New Eridu is fantastic. Instead of a sprawling open world, you get these densely packed, stylized city districts that feel alive. The 'Hollow' exploration via the TV-grid system is a clever way to integrate rogue-lite elements into the experience without it feeling repetitive. It’s a high-budget, high-polish experience that sets a new bar for what action RPGs can look like on mobile. If you have the hardware to run it at max settings, it's a visual feast.
HoYoverse has money, and it shows. Zenless Zone Zero is perhaps the most stylish game on the App Store. The animation, the character designs, the music—it’s all dripping with a cool, retro-future vibe. As a 40-year-old gamer, I appreciate the high production value, but I’m less enamored with the 'TV-mode' navigation which feels like filler between the excellent combat segments.
The combat itself is flashy and responsive, but it’s a bit too 'button-mashy' for my taste. You don't really need to learn complex combos; you just swap characters when the yellow light flashes. It’s a very modern, streamlined take on action that prioritizes spectacle over technical mastery. And of course, the gacha system is here, looming over everything. It’s well-made, but I can’t help but feel it’s designed to extract as much money as possible from players who get attached to the (admittedly great) characters. It’s a good game, but it’s a very expensive hobby.
Performance: Very demanding; requires a high-end device for 60fps at high settings.
Buy if: You love high-style action games and don't mind gacha progression.
Skip if: You prefer deep, technical combat or hate 'energy' systems.

Don't go into Hollows.
I know, I know, there are Ether resources in the Hollows, bizarre creations, even ruins of the old civilization — all invaluable treasures.
But don't forget about the spatial disorder, the monsters, and mutants running rampant. Ultimately, this is a disaster that could swallow the world. Hollows are not where ordinary people should go.
So don't go into Hollows.
Or at least, don't go in alone.
If you insist on getting into danger, go to New Eridu first.
This city full of people from all walks of life has many who need the Hollows: powerful and wealthy tycoons, gangs who rule the streets, schemers hiding in the shadows, and ruthless officials.
Make your preparations there, find strong allies, and most importantly...
Find a "Proxy."
Only they can guide people out of labyrinthian Hollows.
Good luck.
Zenless Zone Zero is an all-new 3D action game from HoYoverse that takes place in a near future, with the world plagued by a mysterious disaster known as "Hollows."
Dual Identities, a Singular Experience
In the near future, a mysterious natural disaster known as "Hollows" has occurred. A new kind of city has emerged in this disaster-ridden world — New Eridu. This last oasis has mastered the technology to co-exist with Hollows and is home to a whole host of chaotic, boisterous, dangerous, and very active factions. As a professional Proxy, you play a crucial role in linking the city and the Hollows. Your story awaits.
Build Your Squad and Fight Fast-Paced Battles
Zenless Zone Zero is an all-new 3D action game from HoYoverse, here to provide a thrilling combat experience. Build a squad of up to three and begin your assault with Basic and Special Attacks. Dodge and Parry to neutralize your opponents' counterattacks, and when they're Stunned, unleash a powerful combo of Chain Attacks to finish them off! Remember, different opponents have different traits, and it would be prudent to use their weaknesses to your advantage.

So don't be fooled by their innocent and cute appearances, don't be afraid of those who tower over you and look dangerous, and don't turn away the fluffy ones who might shed fur all over your spotless floor. Go and talk with them, learn about their unique experiences, and allow them to become your friends and allies. After all, this is a long path, and only with companions will you be able to walk far~
