Zenless Zone Zero Needs to Give a Much-Needed Update on Hoshimi Miyabi

What is Known About Miyabi So Far

Based on what was first shown inZenless Zone Zero, Miyabi is a skilled swordswoman who also utilizes some form of martial arts in combat. Although Miyabi’s attribute and combat style haven’t been officially announced yet, theZenless Zone ZeroFandom Wikiindicates that she’s an upcoming Ice-type Slash Agent, while her combat style is still under wraps. It’s possible that she might be an offensive Agent, probably with an Attack combat style, because of how she’s presented in cutscenes.

Rumors About Miyabi’s Release

There had been several speculations that Miyabi was coming out inZenless Zone ZeroVersion 1.3, especially when rumors started that Section 6’s Tsukishiro Yanagi would be released in the same update. But whenYanagi was announced as an upcoming S-rank Agentfor Version 1.3, Lighter was announced as the second S-rank unit and not Miyabi.

Although many fans were excited about Lighter, there were also some who were slightly disappointed that Miyabi wasn’t coming out yet, especially since she already has a presence in the main story in some way. There’s also a theory thatZenless Zone ZeroVersion 1.3 will feature missions involvingSection 6, just like how the previous update focused on Sons of Calydon, which made a case for Miyabi being part of the same banner as Yanagi. However, it’s still unclear right now whenZenless Zone Zeroplans to officially release Miyabi. There areZenless Zone Zeroleakssuggesting that she could come in Version 1.4, along with fellow Section 6 colleague Asaba Harumasa, but this could still change in the coming months.

Known Section 6 Agents

It isn’t unusual for a HoYoverse title to stall the release of a much-awaited character to build anticipation for them. InHonkai: Star Rail,Kafka is introduced very earlyon in the story and immediately caught fans' attention, but they had to wait until Version 1.2 to pull for her, which was almost three months after the game’s release. In the case of Miyabi’s release window though, it’s been over three months sinceZenless Zone Zerocame out, but there’s still no sign of her. If she is expected in Version 1.4, fans might have to wait until November or December for the update’s rollout.

At this point,Zenless Zone Zeromight need to pick up the pace in releasing Miyabi and not make its fans wait too long, especially if she plays an important role in Version 1.3’s rumored Section 6 missions. It can’t keep glossing over the Agent, who has become popular for her impressive skill and power before she’s officially released, and many avid players have been patiently waiting to pull for her. On the other hand, this might giveZenless Zone Zerofans more time tofarm Polychromesand materials to pull and build Miyabi in the future.
