HoYoVerse drip marketing on social media revealed the next new playable character in Zenless Zone Zero will be Orphie Magnusson and Magus. The two, who appeared in the 2.0 storyline for the game, will be a single unit due to the nature of the characters. We don’t know if they will be an A-rank or S-rank unit yet.

In Zenless Zone Zero, Magus is the Obol Squad captain, and that character is actually the tail of the member of the squad named Orphie. The two of them fight together as a duo. (It’s sort of a similar situation to Huohuo and Mr. Tail in Honkai: Star Rail.) There are very few details about how they will function in-game. We do know that they are supposedly an Attack type of unit, and when they fight they deal Fire damage to enemies.
Here’s the official art of the pair:
We got to hear both of their voice actors and see a quick animated clip of them via a YouTube Short too.

This means both of the Zenless Zone Zero 2.2 characters are from Obol Squad. Seed Jr is the other one. They join Soldier 11 and Trigger.
Zenless Zone Zero is available for the PS5, Xbox Series X, PC, and mobile devices, and Seed will be a new Agent in the 2.2 update that arrives on September 4, 2025.
