Zenless Zone Zero system requirements

Now that the Zenless Zone Zero system requirements have been around for a year, we were hoping for a little more detail on exactly which specs are needed for both minimum and recommended performance. Alas, the specs remain excruciatingly basic, with the game still only available on the Epic Game Store or directly from the game's website.

Thankfully, like other HoYoverse titles, Zenless Zone Zero is quite a light game to run, so you won't need the best graphics card on the market to get started. That being said, getting a good frame rate and pretty visuals might still require your gaming PC to sport some more modern hardware, such as one of the best SSD choices being ideal to house the chunky game file.

Here are the Zenless Zone Zero system requirements:

The Zenless Zone Zero minimum requirements call for an Intel Core i5 CPU from the 7th gen releases to be paired alongside an Nvidia GeForce GTX 970.

It's quite common for miHoYo games to not specify which CPUs are compatible, but what it does offer is enough guidance to know whether yours is going to be capable or not.

We still don't have any listings for AMD components and don't expect these to be featured anytime soon. You can, however, discern which Team Red hardware is needed by comparing it to the Intel and Nvidia options in the specs.

The RAM Requirement currently sits at 8GB, which is expected for a game that isn't going to be too demanding. If you meet the minimum specs, we expect you'll be able to enjoy 1080p gameplay at 30 fps with global low graphical settings.

The Zenless Zone Zero recommended specs take a hefty jump up, but nothing that should have mid-tier or even budget gaming laptops and PCs worried. You'll need a 10th-generation Intel Core i7 CPU alongside an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 GPU.

There is no change in the RAM requirements, and we expect that if you can meet these specs, you'll be able to get 60 fps at 1080p while using high global presets.

As for Zenless Zone Zero's download size, the launcher states the game needs a whopping 110GB, but the actual file size sits at 56.67GB currently. You'll want to be using one of the best SSDs for gaming to ensure a faster download time and shorter loading times in the game.
