What’s the current Zenless Zone Zero banner?

The current limited ZZZ banner is Mellow Waveride. It runs from November 24 – December 24, and features the following characters:

Pulling on the limited banner costs encrypted master tapes, which you can purchase in the signal shop for 160 film or 40 residual signal.

What’s the Zenless Zone Zero standard banner?

In addition to time-limited banners, ZZZ also has a standard banner called the ‘Stable Channel’. It requires a different type of film to the limited banner, and, during the beta, it offers a discount in place of a beginner’s banner that cuts the cost of set amount of ten-pulls down to eight films. That means you get two free pulls per ten-pull at first.

The Stable Channel features a fixed pool of characters, bangboos, and equipment.

Stable Channel characters:

Stable banner bangboos:

  • Luckyboo (A-rank)
  • Paperboo (A-rank)
  • Devilboo (A-rank)
  • Exploreboo (B-rank)
  • Sumoboo (B-rank)
  • Bagboo (B-rank)

  • Housekeeper (A-rank)

What’s the next Zenless Zone Zero banner?

Hoyoverse is yet to confirm any future ZZZ banners, and it looks like the current banners run until the end of the beta. As such, we think it’s unlikely that we’ll get any more banners until the Zenless Zone Zero release date – so it looks like we’ll have to wait before we can meet Zenless Zone Zero’s Miyabi again.

Is there a Zenless Zone Zero beginner banner?

As with most of the best gacha games, we think it’s highly likely that there will be a ZZZ beginner banner, similar to the beginner Genshin Impact banner and Honkai Star Rail banner.

However, there’s no beginner banner in the beta. Instead, we get the aforementioned discount on the standard banner, which is actually a pretty sweet deal if you ask us!

What is the Zenless Zone Zero pity system?

Pity systems are a feature in gacha games that aim to make pulling on banners a fairer and reliable experience.

Standard banner pity

  • Guarantees one A-rank character or item every ten pulls
  • Guarantees one S-rank character every 90 pulls
  • After 75 pulls without an S-rank, your pity begins to increase each pull until you get an S-rank
  • Pity resets after you get a five-star

Limited character banner pity

  • Guarantees one A-rank character or item every ten pulls, with an increased chance of getting the featured four-stars
  • Guarantees one S-rank character every 90 pulls
  • After 75 pulls without an S-rank, your pity begins to increase each pull until you get an S-rank
  • There’s a 50% chance that your S-rank will be the featured one. If you don’t get the featured S-rank, the next S-rank you obtain is guaranteed to be the current limited S-rank
  • Both your pity and 50/50 or guarantee carries over to the next limited banner

There currently isn’t a dedicated w-engine, weapon, or bangboo banner – the only way to get an S-rank w-engine or bangboo is through the level rewards. However, we’ll update this guide if that changes in the future.

That’s everything we’ve got on the current and next Zenless Zone Zero banner right now.
