ZZZ 2.2 release time, preload, and server maintenance details

The updated Version 2.2 of Zenless Zone Zero is about to make its debut: This week, we’ll see the release of the thought-provoking game, Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night.

Introducing two seasoned soldiers from the Obol Squad as playable characters, Seed and Orphie & Magus, ZZZ 2.2 is designed for intense combat. Alongside these new characters, the game will also advance its main storyline, make various improvements, and offer a host of exciting in-game activities.

Find all the details on the ZZZ update 2.2 start and server downtime as well as its preload below.

ZZZ 2.2 – server downtime

The servers for Zenless Zone Zero will temporarily shut down on September 4, 2025, at 6am (UTC+8), to implement update 2.2. Here’s how this affects your time zone:

ZZZ 2.2 – release time

As a dedicated gamer, I’d like to share some insights about HoYoverse’s release schedule. Typically, they don’t extend the playtime beyond the scheduled five hours. So, under regular circumstances, you can expect ZZZ 2.2 to drop according to your timezone without any additional wait.

Every hour of server downtime results in 60 Polychromes being awarded, which means you’ll get at least 300 Polychromes as compensation for the inconvenience. If maintenance lasts longer than anticipated or if we successfully fix bugs that affected gameplay in the previous version, extra Polychromes will be given. Don’t forget to check your email and collect your free currency during Version 2.2’s live period-otherwise, Nicole might use it to clear her debts!

ZZZ 2.2 – preload

The pre-download for Zenless Zone Zero update 2.2 is now accessible on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, iOS, and Android devices. By downloading the update files in advance, you can reduce your waiting time on the day of the patch, allowing you to jump back into the game faster.

ZZZ 2.2 – download size

In HoYoverse games, the size of updates can change based on the specific device you’re using, the languages you’ve selected, and the content you’ve previously accessed. However, here’s an estimate of the typical file sizes for the preload of ZZZ 2.2:

(The given response is intended to be more conversational and easy-to-read compared to traditional writing styles.)

PC: 6 to 7 GB
Mobile: 3 to 4 GB
PS5: 13 to 14 GB
Xbox: 18 to 18 GB

Make sure there is enough empty space on your device, exceeding the specified size, because during the installation process, the game may need to briefly use some extra free storage for unpacking its data files.
