Summary
Following its release on July 4,Zenless Zone Zerohas managed to surpass 50 million players and, as a thank you, Hoyoverse is giving all players a free gift. HoYoverse has continued to produce hits, first withGenshin Impact, then followed byHonkasi Star Rail. With its newest release,Zenless Zone Zero, HoYoverse moved away from that fantasy element and instead created a game set in a futuristic urban setting and embracing a more action RPG style.
This combination of fast action mixed with roguelite elements has proven to be a hit with fans, first indicated byZenless Zone Zero’s global pre-registration campaign, which gave players rewards when various milestones were hit by those wishlisting or preordering the game prior to launch. The highest tier of this campaign was set at an eye-watering 40 million, a number which was quickly reached and gave players access to 12 Master Tapes, a resource used to pull for new characters and weapons similar to previous Hoyoverse releases. WhileZenless Zone Zerowas able to reach 40 million players, that number only continued to rise after the game launched.

In a new post on Twitter,Zenless Zone Zerorevealed that the game has surpassed 50 million downloads worldwide across all platforms. The post also provided players with what to expect in the short and long term, with HoYoverse promising to continue optimizing the game’s performance and listening to feedback. It’s an impressive number for a game that just launched and, similar to HoYoverse’s other titles,Zenless Zone Zerowill continue to evolve and expand, ensuring that players continue to log in and spend. In fact, bothGenshin ImpactandHonkai Star Railcontinue to pull in huge amounts of revenuefor HoYoverse, something thatZenless Zone Zerowill likely start contributing to as well.

WHERE TO PLAY
Don’t go into the Hollows.I know, I know, there’s Ether in the Hollows, bizarre creations, even heritage of the old civilization, all precious treasures. But don’t forget, there’s also spatial disorder, monsters and mutants running rampant, and ultimately, a disaster that could swallow the world. They are not a place 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 where the good and the bad mix has many people who need the Hollows: Powerful wealthy tycoons, gangs that stalk the streets, conspiracy nuts, and ruthless officials.Make your preparations there, find strong allies, and most importantly—Find a “Proxy”.Only they can guide people out of the maze-like Hollows.Good luck!
