A release window was revealed for Zanki Zero: Last Beginning at Anime Expo 2018. People in North America and Europe will be able to play it in Spring 2019 on the PlayStation 4 and PC.
In addition to the updated release window, more information was revealed about Zanki Zero: Last Beginning. Your base is set on Garage Island, which will have ruins drift by from time to time. At Garage Island, you can build upgradeable facilities for your clones after collecting resources from the ruins you explore. These make it easier for the eight clones to explore and survive. This is critical, because the eight clones all survive for 13 days and rapidly age.
Each period in a clone’s life has a different strength. Children are small, but weak. Adults have good offense. People who are middle-aged have a high defense. Once they reach the senior citizen age, they are better at charge attacks, but are quite weak. If you use Score Points from defeating ruin enemies at an Extend Machine, a clone can create a new clone of themselves that has all of their strengths, such as level and skills, but start over again as a child. A new clone will also become resistant to the thing that killed them in their last life, with an example being one dying by poison will be resistant to poison.
