Problems players report

We read the 300 most recent negative Steam reviews of Zenless Zone Zero on 30 August 2026 and counted what they mention. These are complaints, not confirmed defects: we have not reproduced any of them, and a review describes one person's machine. What the counts tell you is which problems more than one person ran into.

  1. Performance and stutter11 of 300 (4%)

    The fact that you could go through the whole thing on auto would’ve been a plus, but with this new format, the experience becomes a stuttering snoozefest a third of the time.

    -And the worst part, at least for me: even though this gacha is one of the best-looking Hoyoverse games, it suffers from some optimization problems.

    Steam review, 28 July 2026 · 27 hours played · 105 readers marked it helpful

A further 2 reviews call the game buggy or broken without saying how, which is why they are counted separately rather than assigned to a theme. Counted by keyword across review text, so a review discussing two problems is counted under both. Read the reviews yourself.
