Zenless Zone Zerois the latest action RPG from miHoYo that’s available now on PC, PS5, and mobile devices. Like previous miHoYo titles, players can take photos of their surroundings and different characters using the camera function. It isn’t immediately available in this title, and here is how you may use the photo mode camera in Zenless Zone Zero.

After you have progressed through the tutorial missions, you’ll have some downtime for smaller tasks around the city during the Prologue intermission. During this, you will unlock the camera feature to take a photo of a cat after petting it. This mission is part of the main campaign, and you can’t miss it.

Cat Photo Zenless Zone Zero

The photo mode is really basic, even compared to something like Honkai Star Rail orWuthering Waves. It’s unavailable during combat, and you can’t take photos of your main character. This is mostly for taking photos of characters and city environments. Think of it more as a camera feature rather than a robust photo mode that we’ve become used to in recent releases.

The PC version runs great for the most part, apart from the Unity crash, which you canfix with a few tweaks. For more on Zenless Zone Zero, make sure to check out ourdedicated section.

When he isn’t spending an unhealthy amount of time in Slay the Spire, he’s probably trying out yet another retro-shooter or playing Dark Souls for the 50th time.
