ZZZ 3.2 Banners: Claret & Nangong Yu Guide

Zenless Zone Zero Version 3.2, "Their Secret Histories," is live, and with it comes a fresh wave of S-Rank Agents and W-Engines. If you're planning your pulls or just want to know what's worth your time, here's everything you need to know about the update. For the latest Zenless Zone Zero news, you're in the right place.

The update went live on 2026-09-09 at 06:00 (UTC+8), bringing a new chapter to the main story, two new S-Rank Agents, and a packed schedule of limited-time events. Maintenance took approximately five hours, and HoYoverse compensated players with 600 Polychrome (300 for the server update, 300 for issue fixes).

At a Glance

• New S-Rank Agents: Claret (Electric – Armorer) and Nangong Yu (Ether – Stun)
• New S-Rank W-Engines: Crimson Thirst (Armorer) and Neon Fantasies (Stun)
• New Main Story Chapter: "Their Secret Histories" (Season 3 Chapter 3)
• Events: "Angels Support Operation," "Surprise Screening Plan," "Clink, Clank, Pinball Knight!"
• Compensation: 600 Polychrome

Banner Schedule and Details

Both new Agents are available in their limited-time channels, but the exact phase split isn't specified in official materials. Typically, HoYoverse runs two banner phases per patch, so expect one Agent in the first half and the other in the second. Claret brings an Electric element with the Armorer specialty, while Nangong Yu uses Ether with the Stun specialty. Their signature W-Engines, Crimson Thirst and Neon Fantasies, are also on rate-up.

If you're aiming for a specific Agent, remember that the standard pity system applies: a guaranteed S-Rank every 90 pulls, with a 50/50 chance to get the featured character. If you lose the 50/50, your next S-Rank is guaranteed to be the featured one. Plan your Polychrome accordingly.

Should You Pull?

Claret looks like a strong addition to Electric teams, especially if you lack a dedicated Armorer. Her kit likely synergizes with other Electric units, but exact numbers aren't in official materials. Nangong Yu fills a Stun role with Ether, which could be valuable for teams that need more crowd control. If you're F2P or low-spend, consider your current roster before committing. If you already have a solid Stun unit, you might skip Nangong Yu and save for future banners.

Events and Rewards

Version 3.2 brings a trio of events:

• "Angels Support Operation" – A rewards event, likely offering Polychrome and upgrade materials.
• "Surprise Screening Plan" – A check-in event; log in daily to claim rewards.
• "Clink, Clank, Pinball Knight!" – A themed event with unique gameplay mechanics.

Exact dates and reward details are not stated in official materials, so check in-game notices for specifics. These events are your best source of Polychrome outside of the main story, so prioritize them if you're saving for future banners.

Pre-Patch To-Dos

Before diving into the new content, make sure you've finished any time-limited events from Version 3.1. Also, consider pre-downloading the update if you haven't already—file sizes range from 5 GB on mobile to 28 GB on Xbox, so plan your storage. For more details, check our ZZZ 3.2 Pre-Download guide.

Day-1 Priorities

After updating, log in to claim your 600 Polychrome compensation. Then, head to the main story to unlock "Their Secret Histories"—you'll need to meet certain prerequisites, which we've outlined in our story unlock guide. Finally, start the check-in event early to maximize your rewards.

Teams and Synergies

While we don't have full kit details, Claret (Electric/Armorer) will likely pair well with other Electric characters like Yanagi or Grace for disorder reactions. Nangong Yu (Ether/Stun) could fit into teams that need quick stuns, possibly alongside Ether DPS units. Experiment with your roster to find what works best.

Unconfirmed — Subject to Change
