Zenless Zone Zero Anby Trailer Showcases Her Background and Abilities

New Insights on Anby: Upcoming S-Rank Agent in Zenless Zone Zero

HoYoVerse has unveiled additional details regarding Anby, the anticipated S-rank Agent from the game Zenless Zone Zero. A new trailer alongside a recent social media announcement showcases her distinctive abilities and provides a sneak peek into her background and storyline ahead of the 1.6 update.

Trailer Highlights and Lore

The trailer emphasizes Anby’s role as the head of the Silver Squad and hints at her status as a potential experimental subject. The video opens with an announcer explaining that previous candidates, referred to as No.5 and No.7, were deemed insufficiently capable and subsequently “failed.”Listeners also catch a mention of “replica recovery”as Anby descends in an elevator, visibly frustrated about the proceedings.

Dynamic Combat and Character Development

Upon arriving at her destination, Anby encounters researchers who criticize the performance of other replicas, asserting they only need a single standout member. Anby then enters a test zone, identifying herself as No.0. Demonstrating her prowess, she effortlessly defeats her adversaries, leading the researchers to advocate for the disposal of the others while they retain her. However, Anby chooses to embrace her rebellious side by challenging herself in a perilous ethereal zone, prompting the researchers to label her as “too reckless.” In a moment of triumph, she confidently declares she has accomplished her mission.

Skill Set and Combat Advantages

The recent update also elaborates on Anby’s unique moveset. One notable ability is Voltage Surge, which enhances her critical hit rate when accompanied by a Support Agent or one that specializes in stunning foes. Furthermore, Anby’s attacks provide critical damage boosts to her party when they strike enemies marked with Silver Star, a marker appearing when she successfully hits an opponent. Opponents marked with a Silver Star can accumulate up to three White Thunder stacks with every attack, ultimately allowing Anby to unleash a powerful technique known as Azure Flash. If the White Thunder stacks reach three, she can initiate an Area of Effect (AOE) attack called Thunder Smite. Additionally, her ultimate ability, Voidstrike, delivers a sweeping AOE assault.

Looking Ahead

As players anticipate the release of the new iteration of Anby, along with fellow characters Trigger and Pulchra, exciting developments are on the horizon. The upcoming 1.7 patch will introduce Vivian, another Ether-element unit classified under the Anomaly type.
