Next New Zenless Zone Zero Character Is Asaba Harumasa

HoYoVerse started teasing a new Zenless Zone Zero character, and it seems we’ll see the Agent Asaba Harumasa join the game in 1.4. There’s a trailer that teases what his English voice acting will sound like and the company shared some infographics about him. These are accompanied by a new trailer for Tsukishiro Yanagi, who is also a part of the same Hollow Special Operations Section 6 faction as Asaba.

First, here’s the YouTube short for Asaba. It also featured some icons showing what we can expect from him as a playable Agent in Zenless Zone Zero. He’s an Attack type character, which means he’s focused on DPS. His element is also shown to be Electric, which means he can eventually cause Shock with his attacks. We don’t know his rank yet, so it is unknown if he will be S-rank like Tsukishiro or A-rank like Soukaku. He’s also shown wielding a bow, which would make him one of the few ranged attackers in the game like Billy Kid.

Here are the infographics going over Asaba Harumasa, which are designed to provide more insight into the personality of the new Zenless Zone Zero character. He’s described as a genius and strong, but also as someone who doesn’t work overtime and sometimes slacks off.

We’ll see his coworker Tsukishiro join Zenless Zone Zero in 1.3. Her latest trailer is a character demo that mostly covers what her life is like at Section 6. The end features a cameo from Asaba and other members of the department.

Zenless Zone Zero is available for the PS5, PC, and mobile devices, and the release date for the 1.3 update is November 6, 2024.
