Earlier leaks revealed that Hugo Vlad would join the Zenless Zone Zero roster in future updates. Now, a new leak suggests that the character will play an interesting role in Version 1.6.

Reliable Zenless Zone Zero leaker Donut has reported that Hugo Vlad will be an enemy boss in patch 1.6. The leak includes Hugo Vlad’s shadow boss model for Shiyu Defense, but players will also fight his normal model during the update’s main story. In his boss form, Hugo Vlad fights with an immense scythe, which has been rumored to be his weapon as a playable character. While developers have shared little information about Zenless Zone Zero Version 1.6, Hugo Vlad’s boss fight might likely be tied to an unfriendly reunion with Lycaon.
Zenless Zone Zero Leak Reveals Hugo Vlad Boss Fight in Version 1.6
If the leak turns out to be true, Hugo Vlad would not be the first character to be an enemy before becoming playable. In past updates, Jane Doe was an enemy boss before she was released as an S-Rank agent. In a similar manner, Zenless Zone Zero confirmed Pulchra’s playability for Version 1.6 despite her being a foe in the 1.2 update. Her rarity has not been confirmed yet, but fans speculate that she will be an A-Rank unit.
Aside from Pulchra, Version 1.6 will also debut characters Silver Soldier Anby and Trigger, who are expected to be S-Rank agents. Previous leaks hinted that Zenless Zone Zero might give away a free character to players in the next update, but fans will have to wait for an official announcement. It will be interesting to see how Hugo Vlad is involved in Zenless Zone Zero‘s next story chapter, as it has been teased that Version 1.6 will reveal more details about the Obol Squad faction and its members.
Don’t go into the Hollows.
I know, I know, there’s Ether in the Hollows, bizarre creations, even heritage of the old civilization, all precious treasures. But don’t forget, there’s also spatial disorder, monsters and mutants running rampant, and ultimately, a disaster that could swallow the world. They are not a place where ordinary people should go.
So don’t go into Hollows.
Or at least, don’t go in alone.
If you insist on getting into danger, go to New Eridu first.
This city where the good and the bad mix has many people who need the Hollows: Powerful wealthy tycoons, gangs that stalk the streets, conspiracy nuts, and ruthless officials.
Make your preparations there, find strong allies, and most importantly—
Find a “Proxy”.
Only they can guide people out of the maze-like Hollows.
Good luck!
