Zenless Zone Zero update 1.7 is coming out tomorrow, and though the update is going to be bringing over a ton of new content, it’s not without a bit of a wait, as servers will be taken down soon for some maintenance. While we’re sure everyone is eager to get back in, there are a few things you’ll want to know and do before the release.

Though if you’re wondering when exactly you can play Zenless Zone Zero 1.7 update, we have a full release schedule, as well as maintenance timings.

Zenless Zone Zero Maintenance for April 21 – Start and End Times

As with previous major updates, servers for Zenless Zone Zero will be down for an expected five hours. Upon completion, players will be able to log in and claim 300 Polychrome as compensation for the downtime, though if maintenance happens to go longer than expected, there will be an additional 60 Polychrome compensation for every extra hour that maintenance goes over.

We’ve broken down the exact timing for when the maintenance will begin and end for some major time zones.

  • New story chapter and special episodes.
  • Mockingbird’s two S-Rank Agents bring elegance and precision to the battlefield.
  • Vivian, an Ether Anomaly Agent (S-Rank)
  • Hugo, an Ice Attack Agent (S-Rank)
  • Robin (Bangboo)
  • Physical Anomaly Agent Jane and the Fire Stun Agent Lighter will rerun in this version’s banners.
  • “Say It With Flowers” event where players will take on the role of managing a flower shop.
  • A-Rank Bangboo Overtimeboo
  • Bangboo Bash returns

We’ll have the full patch notes up shortly after they go live, so be sure to check back!

That’s all for now, agents. We’ll see you all once the servers go live in a few hours!
