Gaming🎮 Rather than brush it under the rug, HoYoVerse comes out and addresses Zenless Zone Zero concept art leak and teases official reveal

[Royal_Lizard]

HoYoVerse has publically acknoledged Zenless Zone Zero concept art leaks that have been circulating the internet as of late. Rather than keep its cards close to the chest, the company has instead opted to pull back the curtain just a little bit by pointing out which portions of the leaks have made it into the full game, and teasing when we'll learn more about the tidbits we've seen.

This concept art (which we won't include here - it is leaked assets after all) features early images of characters from unnannounced factions. The situation surrounding these characters was elaborated on via a public post by the company on Bilibli. You can see this art yourself at the bottom of the post, if you're okay with spoilers.

The following statement comes from a member of the ZZZ dev team and is written in Chinese. It has been roughly translated via Google, so don't assume it's definitely word-for-word accurate, but instead something to help give you the gist of the situation. "After verification, it was found that the other party used illegal means to obtain our development materials, including some of our undisclosed character design concept drafts during character production. We are very sorry for this. So, we made a decision that went against the past - rather than covering it up, it was better to disclose it openly."
