Gacha System

Zenless Zone Zero uses a gacha system as the primary way for a player to obtain new Characters, W-Engines and Bangboos and it is generally the only way to obtain the highest rarity Characters, W-Engines and Bangboos.

Signal Search

Signal Search is what Zenless Zone Zero calls its gacha banners. To roll on the gacha, you will need to use either Polychromes, the gacha currency, or Master Tapes/Encrypted Master Tapes which are the gacha tickets. For Bangboo banners you will need Boopons, which is a currency only used for them and can't be obtained by spending real money.

  • You can exchange 160 Polychromes for 1 Master Tape or Encrypted Master Tape.
  • Master Tapes are used in Stable Channel Signal Searches and Beginner Signal Search.
  • Encrypted Master Tapes are used for Exclusive Channel Signal Searches or W-Engine Channel Signal Searches.

Polychromes, Master Tapes, and Encrypted Master Tapes can be obtained from various in-game sources such as missions, events, and certain npcs. Boopons can be obtained from missions, events and various modes in Hollow Deep Dive Zone.

You can obtain the following from signal searching:

  • B-rank W-Engines,
  • A-rank W-Engines,
  • S-rank W-Engines,
  • A-rank Characters,
  • S-rank Characters,
  • A-rank Bangboos,
  • S-rank Bangboos.

Ranks denote the rarity of the Character, W-Engine or Bangboo. The higher rank they have, the higher the rarity (and the more difficult) it is to obtain.

A-rank Guarantee: If a player does not obtain an A-rank Character, W-Engine or Bangboo after 9 signal searches, the 10th signal search is guaranteed to be an A-rankCharacter, W-Engine or Bangboo. This counter reset every time a player obtains an A-rank Character, W-Engine or Bangboo.

Residual Signals and En-Nies

Residual Signals and En-Nies are in-game currencies that are only obtainable by signal searching. They can be used in the Signal Shop to purchase Master Tapes, Encrypted Master Tapes, Boopons, upgrade materials, and other resources.
