HoYoverse announces their latest game, Zenless Zone Zero, a new Action RPG, and opens the game's Closed Beta Testing Phase.

The Closed Beta Testing Phase of Zenless Zone Zero opened today. Fans of HoYoverse games Genshin Impact and Honkai Impact would be able to experience an all-new ARPG game, this time in a post-apocalyptic futurepunk setting. Zenless Zone Zero is HoYoverse's brand-new urban fantasy IP and is the developers' further attempt in exploring action-oriented gameplay. In this game, players will discover New Eridu, the last shelter for urban civilization due to the calamity Hollows. Together with a group of distinctive partners, players will fight alongside each other and unravel the mysteries in this post-apocalyptic world. Sign up for the Closed Beta here.

New Eridu feels like an amalgamation of Japanese, Fantasy, and Post-Apocalyptic themes, with fantasy creatures, cyborgs, and humans coexisting peacefully together, surviving against the threat of Hollows. The gameplay appears to be more reminiscent of Honkai Impact, with large defined levels of arenas, as opposed to Genshin Impact's open-world world design. The game also appears to feature multiple playable characters and NPCs. The graphics, of course, is anime-style, just like all of HoYoverse's other games.
