When was the ZZZ 1.4 release date? If you were saving up your Polychrome during ZZZ 1.3, we’ve got a full itinerary of everything new to HoYoverse’s urban fantasy in the latest update.
ZZZ 1.4 is the fourth major update to hit the gacha game following the Zenless Zone Zero release date, and there are major developments on the Hollow frontier. Otherwise known as “A Storm of Falling Stars,” Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 includes a tons of new events and QoL updates, plus brand-new characters for our Zenless Zone tier list, banners, and more.
Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 release date
The Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 release date was Wednesday, December 18, 2024. The latest update went live at 2pm PT / 5pm ET / 10pm GMT / 11pm CET / 9am AEDT.
ZZZ’s servers go offline for scheduled maintenance for approximately five hours before the update goes live. HoYoverse usually compensates players with free banner currency for every hour the servers are down, so remember to check your mailbox for ZZZ Polychrome now the 1.4 update is live.
HoYoverse’s gacha games run on a six-week rotation, so we expect the 1.4 update to conclude on Wednesday, January 22, 2025.
Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 livestream
The Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 livestream aired on Friday, December 6, 2024 at 3:30am PT / 6:30am ET / 11:30am GMT / 12:30pm CET / 10:30pm AEDT.

Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 banners
ZZZ banners are typically split into two phases, but version 1.4 has a single phase, with two banners running concurrently for its duration. We’ve included a list of all the S-Ranks available to pull in version 1.4 below. For a full breakdown of all the A-Rank characters, Bangboo, and W-Engines with increased drop rates, our Zenless Zone Zero banners guide should be your next stop.
The Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 banners include:
- Miyabi (Frost, Anomaly)
- Harumasa (Electric, Attack)
Their signature S-Rank Zenless Zone Zero W-Engines are available to pull from the accompanying weapon banner. They’re also be joined by two new Zenless Zone Zero Bangboo.
Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 characters
Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 debuts two playable characters from Section 6, the Hollow Special Operations unit attached to H.A.N.D. We expect obvious synergy with fellow Section 6 members Yanagi and Soukaku, plus more scope for the established Anomaly meta.
The Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 characters are:
Miyabi
Hoshimi Miyabi is the most anticipated agent to debut thanks to her character design and a brief stint in the first ZZZ beta. She is the youngest Void Hunter on record, and Proxies have already seen her in action during their close encounter with Nineveh earlier in the story. She’s a formidable damage dealer, though she relies on other agents in her team to help her trigger disorder and generate stacks to buff her crit damage. This makes her an excellent unit in a Zenless Zone Zero team comp with Yanagi and Caesar.
Harumasa
Asaba Harumasa appears to be the slacker of Section 6, but despite his reputation as a bit of a coward, Miyabi maintains that he’s stronger than he seems. He dashes around the battlefield at lightning speed with his Shadow Slash attack, building his crit rate and damage with each successive hit to marked enemies. This assassination fighting style comes complete with electromagnetic traps that send arrows at targets when triggered. He’ll fit right at home on a team alongside Qingyi and Caesar.
Proxies can claim Harumasa for free whenever they next log in after version 1.4 goes live, so you should get familiar with him sooner rather than later.
Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 story
Version 1.4 brings the first story arc of ZZZ to an end. As Perlman finally awakens, we untangle the conspiracy that surrounds “Sacrifice,” the mysterious Ethereal that Koleda fought at the end of chapter three. As hard truths about the Helios Academy come to light, Belle and Wise venture into Port Elpis with Section 6 and confront their painful past.
Meanwhile, PubSec’s leadership elections are about to get underway, and Inspector Bringer’s corrupt ties to the Vision Corporation might well swing the vote his way.
Zenless Zone Zero 1.4 events
Zenless Zone Zero events are limited-time commissions, scenarios, and alternate game modes that allow Proxies to pick up rare and unique rewards. Some events have been announced in name only, so watch out for them as and when they appear in the RPG game.
Here are the ZZZ 1.4 events:
- Into that Pale Wasteland
- TV Schedule: Windchaser Harumasa
- Deadly Assault
- Bangboo vs. Ethereal
- Where the Stars Shine Bright
