A recent update has sent the Zenless Zone Zero community into despair as the latest patch has removed the ability to look at the agents’ butts. Yep, you read that right…fans of the latest miHoYo action RPG game have been sent into a tailspin over no longer being able to upskirt their scantily-clad anime waifus.
The latest version 1.4 “A Storm of Falling Stars” now allows players to roam the world as any agent they have unlocked. However, along with this update, they’ve also implemented the following change:
“Adjusts the Agents’ display for certain angles: When viewed from specific angles, the Agent will appear faded.”
This is a similar mechanic to the other Hoyoverse franchise, Genshin Impact, and it essentially fades out the entire character if you lower the angle to peek under the women’s skirts. This has, unsurprisingly, sent the male gamer community of Zenless Zone Zero into a spiral and they’ve shown their upset over this change with a Reddit post titled “A worrying change in this patch”, which received 2.4k upvotes, over 350 comments and 5 awards in 9 hours.
Comments including “my day is ruined”, “GG. I’m uninstalling” and “I’m done, f** this. Paid for these characters to not see them”. Some people even try to mask their depravity stating, “I don’t even care about this from a horny angle, I just hate how having my character fade out whenever I want to look up at some scenery feels”. Sure, sure…
Those over on X have also expressed their profound disappointment, saying that “they’ve literally ruined one of the best features” and “I think it’s time to review bomb until they change it back”.
9/11 for gooners

Many gacha games of this sort tend to walk the line between overtly sexual and family-friendly, with jiggle mechanics and upskirting being quite common. The Hoyoverse franchises have been implementing some more changes such as this latest Zenless Zone Zero patch to strike a balance between “making sure kids can still play the game and making it sexy enough to appeal to the standard audience”, as one Reddit poster also noted. This doesn’t stop the wonderful male gamer community from loudly expressing their disappointment though. Just normal another day in the gaming community, ey?
