Dawn of Astra:

Zenless Zone Zero unveils a new spotlight on Astra Yao, delving into her backstory. MiHoYo (HoYoverse) continues to expand the game's roster, this time focusing on Astra Yao, the singer and part-time broadcast personality.

A new animated short reveals Astra Yao's past, showcasing her participation in a benefit concert held in remembrance of a devastating cave-in. Following a tense exchange with a reporter, the story shifts to a dramatic flashback.

Astra Yao is featured in the first character banner of Zenless Zone Zero 1.5, while Evelyn Chevalier appears in the second.

The 1.5 update includes the customary miHoYo (HoYoverse) Polychrome compensation. Players receive 300 Polychromes for bug fixes and another 300 for technical improvements related to the update. These are delivered via in-game mail.

Agent Astra Yao (Air, Support), a new S-rank agent, is more than just a singer. She's a powerful support character, restoring ally HP and significantly boosting damage output. Her skills enhance attack chains and quick assists, enabling devastating combos against enemies.
