Zenless Zone Zero overlay translator with Polish subtitles

It does not. The publisher’s own store listing shows 13 supported languages, and Polish appears in none of the columns: not interface, not subtitles, not audio. Voice acting was recorded in exactly four languages: English, Chinese, Korean and Japanese. The remaining nine are subtitle and UI only.

We also found no Polish fan translation project anywhere: not on grajpopolsku.pl, GitHub, Crowdin, ModDB or Nexus. That is “none found” rather than proof none ever existed, but if you are hunting for a ready-made Polish version of ZZZ you will probably come back empty-handed.

Zenless Zone Zero is an urban-fantasy action RPG. A disaster called the Hollows tore anomalous dimensions into the world, monsters called Ethereals come out of them, and you play a Proxy known as Phaethon (Belle or Wise) who guides other people through those tears. A squad is three Agents plus one Bangboo. Home base is New Eridu, jobs arrive through the Inter-Knot, weapons are W-Engines, and the gacha is Signal Search paid for with Polychrome.

The game launched on 4 July 2024 on Windows, iOS, Android and PS5, with a Steam release on 17 June 2026. If you land on a guide that describes ZZZ as a game about navigating a grid of televisions, it is simply out of date: TV Mode was removed from the main story in Version 1.4 on 18 December 2024 and retro-fitted out of the earlier chapters afterwards.

Kaption is a separate Windows app that runs alongside the game. It finds the spot where ZZZ prints its dialogue by itself, reads the text there and draws the translation in its own overlay above the game. Nothing changes inside ZZZ: your interface language and voice-over stay exactly as you set them.

The translation is not produced live from whatever the reader happened to catch. Screen text is matched against pre-translated lines from the game, so the overlay shows a complete sentence instead of a half-line the typewriter animation cut off mid-word.

Kaption follows every ZZZ version. When a new one comes out, the Polish pack for it follows, and the app downloads it by itself, so you never install anything by hand.

The current version is 3.3. What each version added, with its new quests and characters, is on the ZZZ updates page.

Worth stating plainly: nothing in your ZZZ install directory is rewritten. In the file-replacement sense of the word, Kaption is not a localisation at all, because the translated text never enters the game. It is produced outside it and rendered in a separate window on top.

HoYoverse has published no statement about screen-capture overlays, so we are not going to tell you there is zero risk. What we can do is describe the mechanism and stop there. The Kaption source code is public, so you can check the claim instead of taking our word for it.

ZZZ is the third game Kaption supports, after Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail. Same app, same account: you switch games on the Game and subtitles page, and each game has its own dialogue area, because every game parks its text somewhere different on screen.

If this is your first time setting Kaption up, start with the setup guide. If you are more interested in what the app touches on your machine and your account, the safety page covers that separately.
