HoYoverse’s much awaited action RPG, Zenless Zone Zero, is still keeping the fire going with its official reveal of its second playable character in Version 2.1: Alice Thymefield. The reveal further informs the public on what they can expect on the upcoming content, which has already been set to release at some point in mid-July, giving the fans another battle dynamic to look forward to.
Alice Thymefield shall be added as a Physical Anomaly class whose title reflects the truth that she possesses a unique way of performing physical combat in the complex framework of the game. Premonition by the developers and guesswork among fans refers to hypotheses of her as an S-Rank unit, a rank classically afforded to highly effective and support units throughout the game. This secondary ranking places Alice firmly in the mix as an operator to be considered, a player who would more than likely have herself calling the shots on decisions about strategic team build for optimal production.
Alice has a very well-set visual motif. She looks best dressed in animal ears and crazy blond hair, along with flashy heterochromatic eyes, all coming together to create an interesting, recallable look. She wields the sword as her standard-issue weapon, which speaks to a simple, attack-oriented style of play befitting a character of such fictional renown.
And, of course, Alice’s in-game faction affiliation at Spook Shack is another piece of character background information. Ukinami Yuzuha’s line, as given in the reveal, does seem to present Alice as being a sweet, innocent kind of person. It is a pretty big departure from her noble heritage as a member of the noble house of Thymefield, and thus the high-ended personality to be developed by players as the scenario develops. Alice Thymefield’s presence is the turning point for Zenless Zone Zero, possible expansion of its world and character roster.
