Seed was fairly prominent in Version 2.1’s main story mission.

Zenless Zone Zero has released drip marketing for a new playable Agent in its upcoming Version 2.2 update: Seed. Seed is a member of the OBOL Squad faction, which also houses Soldier 11, Soldier 0 Anby, and Trigger. The Electric Attack S-Rank Agent pilots a mech, which was last seen in the game’s Version 2.2 Main Story Commission. 

Seed joins Zenless Zone Zero’s ranks in Version 2.2

Seed is officially one of Zenless Zone Zero Version 2.2’s upcoming S-Rank Agents. The mech pilot, who was last seen helping out Alice, Yuzuha, and the Phaethon in Version 2.1’s new story missions, will soon be playable in Version 2.2. Seed technically represents a two-in-one package comprising her mech, which is called Sr Seed, and herself as the mech's pilot. 

Seed is an Electric Attack S-Rank Agent who is likely to headline Version 2.2’s first half, though the patch’s second S-Rank character has not been revealed just yet. Her exact combat abilities are unknown, though her drip marketing showcased some Trigger-like first-person combat–albeit from the perspective of her mech. 

In today’s drip marketing, Seed is described by Trigger to be something of a hermit, having set up “‘safe houses’ in the Hollows to avoid people.” A more ominous quote from an unnamed woman with a medical report asks Seed Sr if it’s really worth the risk to protect “a mysterious, dangerous, cold-blooded monster.” 

That monster might be Seed herself, though it’s hard to say for now. We’ll find out more about Seed and her–dare I say it–seedy past in Zenless Zone Zero Version 2.2, which is likely to drop roughly a month from now. Version 2.1 launched last week, introducing new Spook Shack characters Ukinami Yuzuha and Alice Thymefield.
