Check your internet connection

More often than not, the issue behind a failed download is a slow or faulty internet connection. Restart your router to rule out any internet connection issues. A quick reboot can often fix connectivity problems.

Free up storage space for Zenless Zone Zero

Zenless Zone Zero is a surprisingly heavy game regardless of which platform you’re using to play it. Running the game low on storage can cause download errors.

Uninstall other games or move large files to another drive to free up space for Zenless Zone Zero.
