Jul 29, 2024Zenless Zone Zero feels like a fresh take on a genre that Hoyoverse has done already. Its setting feels unique, and its combo-centric combat allows players to experiment and express their playstyles through team compositions and combo theory. All while maintaining what makes a Hoyoverse game unique: its cast of fun characters and stellar combat. The learning curve for this game is steeper, and the roster is thin out of the gate. For those looking for an action game to stick with for a while, Zenless Zone Zero is worth checking out.

Jul 11, 2024Zenless Zone Zero stands at the moment as one of the best expressions of a genre often subject to fierce criticism, almost always justified. From an artistic point of view, the work done by miHoYo with the game is truly amazing, and every single sequence turns out to be a thrilling spectacle, thanks to an extraordinary use of cel shading and a direction that is perfectly aware of its prerogatives. The fights are as simple as they are frantic, they certainly return satisfaction even if the challenge is lacking for much of the currently available content and the action, also due to the too short missions and small and often repeated scenarios, soon tends to become repetitive.

PLAYAug 19, 2024Energetic and charming, the structure is spread too thinly and too repetitive as it stands, leaving us wishing for more of the more authored stages. [Issue#44, p.96]
