Zenless Zone Zero is getting a big Version 2.8 update, and HoYoverse used its latest Zenless Zone Zero Special Program to confirm something else players may care about even more: the action RPG is coming to Steam. Version 2.8, called New Eridan Sunset, is scheduled for May 6 on PC, while the Steam release still doesn’t have a date. That matters because HoYoverse has kept its PC games on its own site or Epic Games Store until now, so this marks a meaningful platform shift for a game that already lives on regular update cadence.

For players, the timing is doing a lot of work here. New Eridan Sunset isn’t just another patch name; it brings two new Agents, a new Wind attribute enemy, and the last chapter of Season 2. If you’ve been following Zenless Zone Zero’s story or building teams around anomaly setups, this update looks like one that could force you to rethink your lineup rather than just chase a few rewards.

About Zenless Zone Zero

HoYoverse develops and publishes Zenless Zone Zero, an action RPG currently on PC. The game’s Special Program framed Version 2.8 as the next major step for the live game, with New Eridan Sunset set to arrive on May 6. Steam support also changes how PC players can get in, since HoYoverse’s previous PC releases have gone through its own website or the Epic Games Store.

That Steam announcement is the kind of move that sounds small on paper and matters in practice. A Steam launch usually means easier access for players who keep their library in one place, fewer launcher headaches, and a much lower barrier for anyone who skipped the game at release. HoYoverse didn’t give a Steam date yet, so PC players still need to wait for that part of the rollout.
