Zenless Zone Zero Version 1.5: Leaked Bangboo Dress-Up Mode to Become Permanent
New leaks suggest Zenless Zone Zero Version 1.5 will introduce a permanent Bangboo dress-up game mode, initially launched as a limited-time "Bangboo Beauty Contest" event. This exciting development follows Version 1.4's addition of new S-Rank characters, Hoshimi Miyabi and Asaba Harumasa (the latter being free), and two permanent combat-focused game modes.
The upcoming event, detailed by reliable leaker Flying Flame, centers around customizing outfits for Eous, the beloved Bangboo mascot. Leaked screenshots showcase a variety of clothing items for players to mix and match. While the dress-up mode itself will become a permanent fixture, event-specific rewards will be time-limited. Rumors suggest this event may also offer the highly anticipated Nicole Demara skin.
This isn't the only gameplay addition anticipated for Version 1.5. Other leaks hint at a temporary platformer game mode. This aligns with HoYoverse's track record of incorporating non-combat permanent game modes in other titles, such as Honkai: Star Rail's cocktail-making and Genshin Impact's Genius Invokation TCG.
Version 1.5 is also confirmed to introduce S-Rank characters Astra Yao and Evelyn, a new area, and a new chapter in the main storyline. With the January 22nd release date approaching, more official details are expected soon.
