Zenless Zone Zero Banner & Event Schedule

Hitting pity on a limited character banner guarantees an S-Rank, but not necessarily the *featured* one. The first S-Rank is a 50/50: half the time it's the banner Agent you wanted, half the time it's a random standard S-Rank instead. Lose that coin flip and the next S-Rank is guaranteed to be the featured Agent — so the true worst case is roughly pity-and-a-half, not endless. This guaranteed flag is stored on your account and carries forward, which matters when you plan across two banners.

The W-Engine banner is kinder at 75/25: 75% of the time your S-Rank weapon is the featured one, and losing still hands you the guaranteed on the next S-Rank. Because character and weapon pity live in separate channels, chasing a signature W-Engine is a *second* budget on top of the Agent — never assume one pity covers both. If you're new, the standard banner's 300-pull path is the one place a specific S-Rank is fully guaranteed with no coin flip at all.

When a past Agent returns on a rerun, the mechanics are the same 50/50 — but two rules make reruns friendlier than they look. First, limited pity carries over between banners: pulls you sank into a previous limited banner without landing the S-Rank aren't wasted — that count follows you into the next one, so a half-finished pity is real progress, not a reset. Second, reruns often ride special channels with a guaranteed-welfare twist: the very first S-Rank you pull is locked to be *your* chosen featured Agent (no 50/50 on that copy), and the banner's opening ten-pull comes at a modest discount — a one-time nudge, not a repeatable exploit.

The takeaway for planning: don't panic-stop a limited banner just because it's ending. Your pity is portable to the next limited character banner. Weapon pity is its own separate carry-over — generous, but never pooled with your Agent count.

Drip marketing is HoYoverse itself revealing a future Agent early — an official portrait and name posted weeks or months before that character is ever scheduled. It's confirmed the character is coming; it is *not* a date. The board above only lists what already has a real date: the banner that's live, plus the 'Coming up' section below it. Once HoYoverse teases someone without a schedule yet, that name won't show up on this board — check back each new version and the board refreshes itself.

We deliberately keep unconfirmed leaks off the schedule. Datamined kits and rumored rerun line-ups change constantly and have burned plenty of players who over-saved on a false window. If it isn't officially drip-marketed or dated, it doesn't sit on this board as fact. The practical move: use drip reveals circulating through the game's own official channels to *decide who to save for*, and use the dated 'Coming up' section on this board to *decide when to spend*.

Skip 'who's the strongest' and answer these four questions before you pull — they hold for any banner, not just one:

• 1. What role is your team actually missing? A strong Agent is still dead weight if your core team already covers that role. Look at your current lineup and ask whether this banner fills a real gap or just outshines someone you already own.
• 2. How close are you to pity? Check your in-game pull counter. Close to pity means much lower risk; having just dumped pity on the last banner means the next pull carries far more risk.
• 3. Does this Agent rerun? Nearly every limited S-Rank comes back eventually. If you're not in a rush, remind yourself: missing this pass isn't permanent, it's just a wait.
• 4. Would saving for the next patch serve you better? If someone who fits your team even better is coming up, ask whether spending everything now is worth it, or whether holding part of it back makes more sense.

These four questions won't hand you a name — they help you decide on your own reasons, instead of pulling on impulse or because someone else did.

This is information HoYoverse has officially teased for the next version, not a leak — but dates can shift slightly until they hit the official schedule.

• Version 3.1 — already released 29 Jul 2026 (now live, see the live board above)
• Remielle Dan — Void Hunter, Covenant of Dayat faction, Anomaly specialty. Element: new, not yet announced — don't trust any element figure circulating until it's confirmed.
• Sigrid — Ice element, Attack role, Airspace Patrol faction.

Once these banners hit the schedule with real dates, they'll appear in the 'Coming up' section on the live board above. Check back each new version and the board updates itself.

Signal Search has four separate "pity" mechanics that get mixed up because they all share the same 50/50 logic — the table below separates each channel, cross-checked against the official guide's Pity System section:

New-player deals on the Standard Channel (once per account): the first 5 pulls are 20% off; 10 pulls guarantee an A-Rank or higher; 50 pulls guarantee a random S-Rank (separate from the 300-pull hand-pick above).

Figures cross-checked 07 Aug 2026 against the official Signal Search guide — not community guesswork.
