Zenless Zone Zero Version 2.3 Special Program Date and Time
The Zenless Zone Zero 2.3 Special Program is scheduled to air on September 29 at 7:30 A.M. EDT. During the broadcast, HoYoverse will showcase upcoming story content, character gameplay previews, and limited-time events. As with previous livestreams, players can also expect new redeem codes that will grant up to 300 Polychromes as free rewards.
New Characters Joining in Version 2.3
HoYoverse has already teased several exciting additions to the Zenless Zone Zero roster. Three new characters from the fan-favorite Spook Shack faction are confirmed for Version 2.3:
- Yidhari (S-Rank) – Expected to be one of the update’s headline units.
- Lucia (S-Rank) – Another highly anticipated S-Rank fighter joining the roster.
- Komano Manato (A-Rank) – Rumored to make his debut as part of the new update.
These characters will likely play a central role in the patch’s story and banners, further expanding the game’s unique combat lineup.
Returning Characters and Rumored Additions
Leaks suggest Version 2.3 will also feature reruns of Harumasa and Soldier 0 Anby, two popular Electric characters, giving players another chance to pull them from the limited gacha banners.
In addition, speculation is strong that Vivian, the beloved S-Rank unit from Version 1.7, may receive a brand-new skin. If true, this cosmetic update would mark a welcome return for one of the community’s favorites.
Recent Content and What’s Next
The recent Version 2.2 update delivered plenty of hype with the arrivals of Seed and Orphie, along with two powerful bosses: The Defiler and The Defector. Now, HoYoverse is raising the stakes again with fresh characters, new stories, and more in Version 2.3.
The update itself is expected to officially launch on October 15, shortly after the Special Program.
Why Fans Are Excited for Spook Shack’s Return
The Spook Shack faction has quickly become a fan favorite. Their first major appearance came in Version 2.1, with the releases of Yuzuha and Alice during Zenless Zone Zero’s summer event. Both characters were praised for their designs and powerful kits, especially Yuzuha, who is considered one of the game’s strongest support units.
With Yidhari, Lucia, and Komano Manato set to join the roster, fans can look forward to another thrilling chapter for Spook Shack.

The countdown is on for the Zenless Zone Zero Version 2.3 Special Program. Between new Spook Shack recruits, returning favorites, and free Polychromes, this update looks packed with content that will keep players engaged.
