Zenless Zone Zero, Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail developer miHoYo's latest game, is launching a new beta test that players can sign up to.
The beta test will be open for sign-up to all players who are aged at least 16 years old and they can get a higher chance of being selected if they complete a series of tasks. These include pre-registering, inviting friends to pre-register using their own link, and completing daily missions.

Completing any of these will award players with additional tickets that increase their chances of securing a spot in the latest beta test for the role-playing game. The beta this time around will give players the chance to try out a brand new character, Zhu Yuan, and the new Eridu faction.
The test launch also offers players real-life as well as virtual prizes during the game's prize draw. Two years ago, miHoYo revealed Zenless Zone Zero for the first time amid the booming popularity of its open-world environment game, according to Eurogamer.
HoYoverse, which is responsible for managing all of miHoYo's global operations outside of China, revealed after an initial tease more details about its latest project. Zenless Zone Zero is an action role-playing game and was described as an urban fantasy title that seeks to "further explore action-oriented gameplay."

Zenless Zone Zero is also expected to be released on the PlayStation 5 after it was initially revealed that it would launch as an action RPG for PC and mobile. The news of the PS5 port came during the PlayStation State of Play event last month.
The official release date for miHoYo's newest RPG game is loosely expected to be somewhere in late 2024. Following the previous Zenless Zone Zero beta test, the team behind it promised to provide "more dynamic" combat. This could appeal to both newcomers and hardcore players.
New Features To Expect
Similar to Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail, Zenless Zone Zero's banners are the main way of making the most out of your loadouts, including new characters, W-Engines, and Bangboos, said PCGamesN.
Furthermore, players can expect new Bangboo mechanics to be featured in the newest Zenless Zone Zero beta test. Bangboos are intelligence devices that are unique to New Eridu, the main city in the game. These companions will now be able to pull off chain attacks to dish out amazing damage to enemies.
They will surely be valuable assets to players who are looking to explore the "Shiyu Defense" combat challenge mode or the "Hollow Deep Dive System" that will be expanded in the latest beta test. The latter will pit players directly into some of the toughest boss fights the game has to offer.
The residents of New Eridu will also gain a more immersive living experience by providing players with more city guidance and urban life events, according to Yahoo News.
Zenless Zone Zero takes place in a dangerous world where people are haunted by unexplained disasters that are called "Hollows." The game's plot revolves around the destruction of the previous civilization and the chaos that followed.
