Zenless Zone Zero 2.7 story

In ZZZ 2.7's story, we're putting the celebrations of Gilded Carrot Day behind us and looking ahead to the Hollow Champion competition hosted by TOPS.  With one billion Dennies and an ultra-rare Porcelloy W-Engine up for grabs, the Rusty Cliff Corp has spared no expense on their sponsorship support, attracting interest from factions far and wide.

The Metropolitan Order Division of PubSec is one such participant, as undercover agent Cissia embarks on a covert investigation into this so-called routine cleanup. She's here to find evidence of "faded" Ethereals, a bizarre variant said to produce no Ether activity. The Calydon Sweepers and infamous Black Wolf Romeul are also rumored to join the tournament.

New Eridu might be swept up in the excitement of Hollow combat, but there's more than just the tournament to look forward to in version 2.7. The Simmer Hot Pot Restaurant at Lumina Square is getting review-bombed, and owner Blaze needs Phaethon's help to restore its reputation. Could a new hot pot dish be the answer to her prayers?
