ZZZ 1.2 Livestream Recap: New Events, Bangboos, and More
The Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ) community is excited after the recent 1.2 livestream, called “Tour De Inferno.” This update, set to drop on September 25th, 2024, brings new characters, game-changing features, and quality-of-life improvements that players will definitely enjoy.
ZZZ 1.2 Livestream Recap and Summary

New Agents
The Sons of Caldyon faction is adding two new agents to their roster. Caesar King, a Physical Defense specialist, brings shields to the team, adding more strategy to setups.
The other agent will be Burnice White, a Fire Anomaly character who uses dual flamethrowers to quickly apply Burn status to enemies, which is likely to change the meta in exciting ways.
