Zenless Zone Zero Leaks Hint at New Skins for Astra Yao and Ellen Joe
Recent leaks suggest upcoming skin additions for Astra Yao and Ellen Joe in Zenless Zone Zero. These leaks, surfacing ahead of the January 22nd 1.5 update, depict Astra Yao in a striking all-white dress and hint at future content for Ellen Joe. The 1.5 update itself promises a wealth of new content, including the introduction of new characters like Evelyn, and possibly details on a skin release for Nicole.
Astra Yao's highly anticipated in-game debut, first showcased at The Game Awards 2024, is finally arriving in Version 1.5 alongside her enigmatic bodyguard, Evelyn. Both will be S-Rank units, and the update's main storyline is expected to center around Astra Yao's introduction. However, leaks point to additional surprises for her, and another popular original character.
Leaker Donutleaker unveiled in-game screenshots of a new Astra Yao skin discovered within the 1.5 beta. This skin features Astra Yao in a distinctive all-white dress with puffed sleeves, a departure from her usual attire. The timing of this skin's appearance, given her recent introduction, is noteworthy. This leak is corroborated by Palito, another leaker, who also reported skins for both Astra Yao and Ellen Joe within the 1.5 update data. Earlier speculation about Version 1.5 included the addition of Ellen's first Agent Story, a long-awaited addition for fans eager for more content featuring the shark Thiren.
