Zenless Zone Zero is still in its closed beta testing phase, but HoYoVerse wants to share some details about the game’s heroes. Meet Nicole, Anby, and Billy, members of the Cunning Hares team. They are the first three characters you can get when you start playing the game.

Zenless Zone Zero Cunning Hares Characters Teased by HoYoVerse

The Cunning Hares are a band of problem-solvers who also work as Hollow Raiders – hired guns who loot New Eridu’s Hollows for gain. The trio are some of the first faces you see in the game, as the main plot is about them. They team up with “Phaeton”, a famous New Eridu Proxy account run by the brother-sister duo Belle and Wise (who are choose from as your in-game persona similar to the Traveler in HoYaVerse’s hit gacha game Genshin Impact). A fourth member, Nekomata, joins them later but you can only play her permanently if you get her from trying your luck in gacha pulls. Let’s take a look at each of the members.

Nicole Demara

Nicole Demara is the brains behind the Cunning Hares in Zenless Zone Zero. Despite her obsession with wealth, she struggles with keeping her budget in check, leaving the team in a constant struggle financially. In the gaming world, she is recognized as an A-Rank fighter specializing in ranged attacks with an Ether element. Her weapon of choice is a high-end bag, ingeniously modified with multiple gun barrels and an internal cannon. Her unique attacks create an energy field that draws enemies into its center, inflicting periodic Ether damage. Nicole’s character comes to life through the Japanese voice actor Yuu Serizawa, known for her roles as Iroha in 3D Girlfriend and Shera in How Not to Summon a Demon Lord.

Anby

Lastly, Anby, Anby’s trailer serves as a prologue to the game’s beginning, revealing the circumstances that led the Cunning Hares to cross paths with Phaeton and the player. Anby is reticent in nature, a girl with an enigmatic history who was welcomed into Nicole’s family as an adopted sister. Despite her proficiency in melee combat and her mastery of advanced fighting techniques, the source of her skills remains unknown. She often lacks common sense, drawing overly literal interpretations from films and literature.

While her normal attack deal physical damage, her special and ultimate attacks use Electrical damage to enhance her power. In the Japanese version, Anby’s character is voiced by Atsumi Tanezaki, known for her roles as Anya in Spy x Family and Frieren in Frieren: After Journey’s End.

Billy Kid

Previously HoYaVerse introduced characters to a few of the Zenless Zone Zero characters including Billy Kid. Since he’s one of the starter characters for players here’s a quick reintroduction of this robotic gunslinger.

Armed with a pair of twin revolvers and a nimble cyborg body, Billy is the team’s marksman. He’s a die-hard fan of the Starlight Knight hero show. He is adept at inflicting substantial physical damage on enemies he can line up in his path, and his evasive dodge allows him to target adversaries in all directions. Billy’s character is brought to life by the voice of Yuu Hayashi, renowned for his roles as Manjirou in Tokyo Revengers and Ryuunosuke in Haikyuu!!.

Currently Zenless Zone Zero is running its Equalising Test, which invited fans to sign up for a closed beta for the Action-RPG. The PC and mobile title has yet to have a launch date but looks to be closing in on its release in 2024.
