What are the Zenless Zone Zero banners? If you’re looking to expand your roster of playable agents, then wishing on banners is your best bet. These digital gacha machines form the basis of developer HoYoverse’s monetization strategy, and they should be instantly familiar to anyone who’s dipped into Genshin Impact or Honkai Star Rail.
Zenless Zone Zero includes several event banners that offer the chance to pull characters, weapons, and Bangboo. Banners rotate regularly, so it’s important to think strategically about whether to spend your ZZZ Polychrome on the current banner, or hold off until the next one. The ZZZ 1.1 banners include brand-new agents that can shake-up your Zenless Zone Zero team comps, so get set to start spending in HoYoverse’s urban gacha game. Here’s who you can pull in Zenless Zone Zero banners.
Zenless Zone Zero 1.1 banners
The Zenless Zone Zero 1.1 banners are slated to include S-Rank characters Qingyi (Electric, Stun) in phase one and Jane Doe (Physical, Anomaly) in phase two.
Qingyi’s banner will include increased drop rates for A-Rank characters Anby (Electric, Stun) and Billy (Physical, Attack), while Jane Doe’s banner includes Corin (Physical, Attack) and new A-Rank character Seth (Electric, Defense). However, it’s important to remember that this information is not verified by HoYoverse, and may be subject to change.
The ZZZ 1.1 weapon banners will include the signature Zenless Zone Zero W-Engines for both Qingyi and Jane Doe during their respective banner phases. Meanwhile, the Zenless Zone Zero Bangboo banner will allow players to select whichever S-Rank they’d prefer to pull with their hard-earned Boopons.
We anticipate the Zenless Zone Zero 1.1 banners to run from Wednesday, August 15, to Thursday, September, 2024 to make way for the 1.2 update.

Zenless Zone Zero standard banner
The Zenless Zone Zero standard banner is Star-Studded Cast. Otherwise known as the Stable Channel, it is a permanent banner that offers players the chance to pull from a select pool of Agents and W-Engines.
The standard banner includes the following S-Rank characters:
- Grace
- Koleda
- Lycaon
- Nekomata
- Rina
- Soldier 11
This banner also comes with a host of new player benefits, including a 20% discount on the first five ten-pulls and a guarantee to pull an S-Rank character within your first 50 Signal Searches. Once these bonuses have been exhausted, the odds of the standard banner revert to normal.
Zenless Zone Zero banner drop rates
You are guaranteed an A-Rank or higher for every ten pulls on any Zenless Zone Zero banner, with a guaranteed S-Rank every 90 pulls. Bear in mind that banners also include W-Engines, so your high-grade pulls aren’t always going to be characters.
The Zenless Zone Zero event banner, otherwise known as the Exclusive Channel, offers players the chance to pull exclusive S-Rank characters that don’t appear in the Stable Channel’s character pool for a limited time. Given their rarity, these characters are typically the strongest in the anime game.
Whenever you pull an S-Rank from an event banner, there is a 50/50 chance that it’ll be the featured character. If you lose that 50/50, the next S-Rank you pull is guaranteed to be that character.
Event banners also include increased drop rates for an additional two A-Rank characters – so if you have your heart set on pulling a particular character, it’s worth waiting until their corresponding event banner rolls around. Broadly speaking, you should always prioritize the event banner over the standard banner, to increase the odds that you pull the character you want.
