Zetsubo ZERO Patch 2.3 Card Pool Leaks | Lucia, Rokudo, Chinatsu, and Tsunetsu Appear, and Ambi and Trigger Return

As news about Zetsubo ZERO Patch 2.2 gradually unfolds, players' attention has turned to the next major update. According to various leaks and speculations, Patch 2.3 will launch in early October 2025, introducing new characters and a remastered card pool. This information reveals that in addition to the four new characters, two popular limited-edition characters will also be remastered, making for a truly impressive lineup. Below, we'll provide a detailed breakdown of Zetsubo ZERO Patch 2.3's card pool, release date, and new character roles to help agents plan their resources ahead of time.

1. Zetsubo ZERO Patch 2.3 Release Date

Based on Zetsubo ZERO's six-week release schedule, Patch 2.3 is expected to officially launch on October 8, 2025. While the final release date remains subject to official announcement, based on past update patterns, this estimate is highly plausible. For players planning to gacha, the confirmed release date means planning your cultivation resources and Vortex Tickets in advance to avoid being stuck with a large number of characters in the patch.

II. Introduction to New Characters in Zero Zone 2.3

According to current leaks, four new characters will be added in patch 2.3, three of whom are from the virtual idol group "Delusion Angels." They represent the lead vocalist, performer, and composer on stage, respectively, each with their own unique character design style and ability roles.

1. Lucia

Position: Abilities Support

Features: Increases the effectiveness of all team Abilities, enhancing overall team coordination.

Lucia is considered a highly valuable team character in the patch. She doesn't rely solely on individual damage output, but instead significantly boosts the overall team's damage and control capabilities by increasing the effectiveness of her teammates' Abilities. For players looking to build an Abilities team, she's a must-have.

2. Chinatsu

Attributes/Position: Ice/Support

Appearance: Light green hair and a fresh demeanor.

Chinatsu is an Ice-attribute support character. Her primary role is to provide slow and freeze control, while also providing team buffs. Ice attributes are often linked to control in combat, making Chinatsu a key backline character for Ice or mixed teams. For players lacking control and support characters, she's a worthwhile addition.

3. Yutane

Attributes/Position: Ether / Anomaly

Highlights: Pink hair and dual form switching (human + machine).

Yutane's design is quite novel. Her two switchable combat forms suggest significant changes in her damage distribution and skill mechanics. The Ether + Anomaly combination is relatively rare in the current character system, so Yutane's introduction will bring new gameplay to Ether teams. Her dual form switching will undoubtedly add more strategic depth and may become a core strategy in future versions.

4. Rokudu

Attributes/Position: Physical / Control

Appearance: Black and pink hair, weapons include a transformable mace and chain hammer.

Liu Dao is a physical-based stun control character. Her combat style is rumored to be able to switch freely between melee and ranged combat, giving her great flexibility in both enemy control and damage output. Considering that physical-based characters currently tend to favor damage output, Liu Dao's addition will fill the gap in control for physical teams and further enrich the composition.

III. Re-released Characters in Absolute Zone Zero 2.3

In addition to the new characters, Patch 2.3 will also see the re-release of two popular limited-edition characters, providing a great opportunity to catch up for players who missed out on the first round of the card pool.

1. Zero Ambi

Attributes/Position: Electric / Power Attack / Slash

Features: Gains additional attacks, increased self-damage, increased critical strike rate and critical damage, and the ability to ignore enemy resistance.

Ambi is a very powerful electric-based damage character. Her self-sufficiency and high burst damage make her a key player in both electric and mixed teams. For players seeking high burst and a thrilling gameplay experience, the Ambi re-release card pool is a must-see.

2. Trigger

Attributes/Position: Electric / Break / Pierce

Features: Has an additional attack, significantly increases the Stagger Vulnerability multiplier, and significantly boosts critical hit damage.

Trigger is a character who focuses on weakening enemies and breaking shields. Her break role makes her extremely valuable in fights against high-defense enemies or when quickly interrupting enemy abilities. She and Ambi are both Electric-type characters, so their re-releases are likely to create a powerful Electric-type team composition.

IV. Card Pool Value and Pick Recommendations

Overall, the 2.3 card pool offers a balance of freshness and practicality.

New Characters: Lucia's team buff and Tsubasa's dual-form mechanic are highly anticipated. Chinatsu and Rokudo fill the gaps in Ice and Physical-type support and control.

Regarding remastered characters: The return of Ambi and Trigger has made Electric-type teams popular again, providing a great opportunity to strengthen them, especially for players lacking a strong Electric-type main carry.

Reference for Draw Priority

Looking for an unusual team → Prioritize Lucia and Tsuneki.

Looking for enhanced control and support → Consider Chinatsu or Rokudo.

Lack of an Electric-type core → Recommended draws: Ambi or Trigger from the remastered pool.
