What is Known About Zenless Zone Zero Version 1.4 Banner So Far
Agent Ranks, Attributes, and Combat Styles
There had been a number of rumors in the past about Miyabi and Harumasa possibly being in the same Agent banner in a future update. In particular,Miyabi was teased beforeZenless Zone Zeroeven launchedand had shown up in the main story’s early chapters, so many fans have been waiting for her to become playable for months.
According to arecent leak from Shirona, Miyabi and Harumasa might finally debut in Version 1.4. Miyabi, who is the head of Section and also the youngest Void Hunter, is said to be an S-rank Ice-type Anomaly Agent who wields a sword to take down Ethereals. Meanwhile, her colleague Harumasa is rumored to be an S-rank Electric-type Attack unit. The leak also claimed that Harumasa might be in the first banner phase, while Miyabi would be in the second. HoYoverse has yet to confirm this news, so fans should take this information with a grain of salt because this is still subject to change.
Zenless Zone Zerofans have already seen how Miyabi fights, and based on some pieces of her lore, she can really defend herself as she’s the heiress of a renowned martial arts family in New Eridu. Meanwhile, Harumasa is still a mystery becauseZenless Zone Zerohas classified him as an NPC, despite being present in Section 6-related cutscenes.
The Rumored Version 1.4 Banner Might Bring on More Section 6 Stories
The Hollow Special Operations Section 6, or Section 6 in short, is a faction made up of highly-talented individuals tasked to take on high-risk Hollow threats. The Proxy meets members of Section 6 in the first chapter, where they’re chasing after a powerful Ethereal known as Nineveh in the Hollow. Right now, only two Section 6 members are playable: Tsukishiro Yanagi (S-rank Electric, Anomaly) and Soukaku (A-rank Ice, Support).
Known Section 6 Characters
WithYanagi already debuting inZenless Zone ZeroVersion 1.3, many fans believe that the game will kick off a Section 6 storyline during this update. This might mean that Miyabi and Harumasa could have more exposure inZenless Zone Zero, which would make more sense for them to come out in the next update. The Version 1.4 leaks might also hint at the possibility of the Section 6 story being lengthier, which could mean that Miyabi and Harumasa might play important roles in this update.
A Section 6-focused update would be an exciting development because it could further expand Proxy’s role inZenless Zone Zero’s story. As a protagonist, theProxy known as Phaethonis a passive figure who mostly assists Agents in navigating Hollows, as well as completing commissions from New Eridu citizens. The possibility of Proxy working closely with Section 6 could hint at more powerful enemies that Miyabi and her colleagues need to eliminate, while Proxy offers their guidance during intense battles.
