Version Zenless Zone Zero 2.4, presented on a special stream, will be intense: the developers announced a new chapter of the plot, two S-rank agents, a pack of events, optimizations and a generous set of rewards. But the main thing is that they finally answered the key questions of the second season and gave the first hints about the future of the story.
The plot of version 2.4: “At the edge of the abyss”
The heroes return to the consequences of the disaster in the village. The topic of the Krampus organization comes to the surface – the internal audit department of the TOP, which everyone fears and admires at the same time.
Dialin officially explained that Krampus is not a scary legend, but a real tool of control. This is a strict but fair structure that ensures that the TOP giant does not go astray. Arbitrators have their own methods, standards and approaches – that's why they seem unpredictable.
The corruption is receding, and people, forgetting about caution, again began to explore theOld Mine. But the ethereals there are still strong, and Banyue feels some kind of power emanating from this place. And it is this that will become the key point of the plot chapter “At the Edge of the Abyss.”
The stream also revealed the secrets of the Yunkui school and the tragedy of the Ye family. Banyue said that Ye Shiyuan and Ye Shunguang lost their parents to the release of filth ten years ago. The children grew up at Yunkui Mountain School and it was then that Shunguang became the owner of the Heavenly Sword.
An important thing turns out: all the previous owners of the sword came to a bad end – the sword erases memory, dulls feelings, and sometimes takes life. Yixuan made a special scabbard seal to protect Shunguan from the influence of the sword.

Interview with the screenwriter: answers to community questions
The developers decided for the first time to explain many of the plot mysteries.
Who is behind the events of the second season?
The second part of the season talks about how the forces of different interests collide in Phaylum. After the fall of the Rejoicings, a new lead appeared – the Creator. Sarah received the Guardian mark and continued on her way. Ye Shiyuan appears precisely after Sarah receives “instructions from above.”
The Creator is not an object, but a super-entity, a node of meaning. He is the shadow over all events.
The fate of the Rejoicings and the nature of the Creator
The Organization of the Rejoicings is virtually destroyed. Sarah is the only one who continues to search for traces of their “god.”
TOP: enemies or allies?
TOP is the financial elite of the city. Has power close to the administration, but lacks justice. For a long time they felt pressure from the military and authorities. “Krampus” is the blade of the TOP, conducting inspections and making decisions.
What is the “Nightmare Shack”?
A group of anonymous enthusiasts from the Internet who:
- Discuss horror stories
- Arrange secret forays
- It is not by chance that they get involved in the events of the season
Four great AI
Fairy is just the first AI to awaken. The other three exist but have not yet appeared. They will play a role in future versions.
Helios Academy and the origins of Wise and Belle
- Their flashes of ethereal energy are the result of a special nature
- Sid is the “legacy” of an unfinished project
- Wise and Belle are participants in a similar project
- Their abilities will further develop
The First Cavern Hunters
Many have disappeared, but some are alive. In future versions, players, according to the developers, will be able to meet them in person. At the moment, it is known that of the current characters, only Miyabi officially holds this title.
Origin of the Heavenly Sword
The sword was not created in Yunkui, it was found near the Lemnos cavern. It absorbed ether from people and attacked those who touched it. One master pacified him and forged a blade, and that’s how the Yunkui Mountain School appeared. The sword is an anomaly associated with caverns, and that is why it breaks its owners.
New factions and characters for future parts of the season
- Return to the Janus Region
- New employees of the Public Security Service
- More interaction with “Krampus”
- The personal story of an “old acquaintance”
- Mysterious friendly figure in the third season
ZZZ Version 2.4 is released on November 26, 2025, and there is a lot of new content and story answers ahead. All that remains is to just wait for the release and return to New Eris to see with your own eyes what was discussed on the stream.
