ZZZ Cracks the PS5 Top 10

Zenless Zone Zero, a free-to-play live-service title, has quickly gained popularity. Recent data from Circana's "US Player Engagement Tracker Top 10 Titles" report places ZZZ within the top 10 most popular PlayStation games, competing with established titles like Elden Ring and Minecraft. The ranking is based on weekly user engagement, excluding playtime duration.

Launched on July 4th, ZZZ's initial impact was significant. It debuted at #12 on the PS5's top 40 most-played games chart during its launch week. Furthermore, data from PocketGamer.biz reveals nearly $52 million in gross mobile player spending ($36.4 million net) within its first 11 days, peaking at $7.4 million on July 5th across the App Store and Google Play.

While not yet matching the overall success of miHoYo's other titles, ZZZ holds its own alongside industry heavyweights like Call of Duty, Fortnite, and Roblox. The game boasts a strong 4.5/5 star rating on the Epic Games Store, with players praising its compelling boss battles and narrative.
