Dear Proxies,
While Zenless Zone Zero Version 3.2, “Their Secret Histories,” is still underway with Claret Flint and Roxy in the spotlight, official details for Version 3.3, “Journey to the Sky,” have now taken center stage.
According to the latest Special Program, Phoenix and Severian are officially confirmed as the featured new S-Rank Agents for the first and second halves of the 3.3 banners, alongside reruns for Velina and Norma.
Beyond the banner lineup, the update will also deliver a Halloween event with brand-new outfits, a new main story boss, and Operation Bagel: Zenkov Season 3.

If you want to build one of the strongest Anomaly setups as soon as Version 3.3 begins, you can top up Zenless Zone Zero on GamsGo and save up to 25%, giving you more resources to strengthen your Remielle–Velina Anomaly core.

ZZZ 3.3 Release Date

Based on Zenless Zone Zero’s current update schedule of roughly 42 days per version, with each banner phase lasting around 21 days, and with Version 3.2 launching on September 9, 2026, Version 3.3 is expected to begin around October 21, 2026.
- ZZZ 3.3 Phase 1: October 21 to November 11, 2026
- ZZZ 3.3 Phase 2: November 11 to December 2, 2026

ZZZ 3.3 Livestream Redemption Codes
During the Zenless Zone Zero Version 3.3 Special Program, HoYoverse revealed the livestream redemption code “JRNY2SKY”. Redeeming it grants 300x Polychromes along with additional in-game growth materials.
This code is valid until October 11, 2026, at 11:59 AM (UTC-4) / October 12, 2026, at 00:59 (JST). Livestream codes expire very quickly, so be sure to redeem it before time runs out.
ZZZ 3.3 Banner Phase 1: Phoenix
Character Design
Phoenix is a medical assistant of the Krampus Compliance Authority, an organization under TOPS. Her design features long light-colored hair, golden eyes, and a softer overall outfit style. Compared with the more imposing enforcer-like image of other Krampus members, Phoenix has a noticeably lighter appearance.
Attribute & Specialty
Phoenix is a Fire Anomaly Agent who provides efficient off-field Anomaly buildup, consistent high-frequency Disorder triggers, and additional Anomaly CRIT effects similar to the effect provided by Jane’s Mindscape Cinema 2.
This makes her a strong core driver for the Remielle–Velina Anomaly core. Burnice has already performed well in this setup, while Phoenix serves as a more specialized upgrade that pushes the team’s Anomaly and Disorder rotation even further.
ZZZ 3.3 Phoenix Gameplay Showcase
In combat, Phoenix wields a pair of red-and-white blades that can be combined into a scissor-like weapon. Her attacks are fast and aggressive, with quick chained movements that give her a highly mobile fighting style.
Current test-server footage also suggests that Phoenix may have a unique high-speed movement mechanic similar to the Void Hunters. She appears to use thrusters to reposition quickly and move across the battlefield.

ZZZ 3.3 Phoenix New Kit Leaks
- Anomaly CRIT Mechanic: Phoenix gains 40 Anomaly Proficiency. When any squad member deals Attribute Anomaly DMG, the target enters Vulnerable for 20s. While Vulnerable, Attribute Anomaly DMG has a 30% base CRIT Rate and 115% CRIT DMG.
- Anomaly Mastery Scaling: If Phoenix’s Anomaly Mastery exceeds 145, each point above 145 increases the CRIT Rate of this effect by 0.7%.
- Anomaly Team Bonus: Her Additional Ability activates when another squad member is an Anomaly Agent or from the same faction. With 2 / 3 Anomaly Agents in the squad, Attribute Anomaly CRIT DMG against Vulnerable enemies is increased by 25% / 40%.
- Rebirth: When Phoenix is defeated, she can trigger Rebirth, allowing her to return to battle and restore 50% of her Max HP. This effect can trigger once every 300s.
Phoenix's 2 New Outfits | 30% Off Bundle Discount
Zenless Zone Zero Version 3.3 introduces two brand-new outfits for Phoenix: "The Illness called Life" and "Daydream Complex." Both cosmetics will be available for purchase in the in-game store immediately following the update.
In addition, a limited-time bundle titled "Blank Reverie," which includes both outfits, will hit the store at a 30% discount. Players planning to pick up both styles can save a significant amount compared to buying each piece separately.
ZZZ 3.3 Banner Phase 2: Severian
Character Design
Severian wears a sleek black formal outfit with an understated, luxurious feel. The dark color palette gives him a restrained and composed appearance, while the gold badge and metallic accents reinforce his authority and high-ranking status.
The design fits his position as the commissioner of the Metropolitan Order Division. Rather than relying on elaborate decoration, his black-and-gold color scheme and formal tailoring convey the presence of a commanding law-enforcement figure.
Attribute & Specialty
Severian is confirmed to be a Wind Attack Agent who uses a greatsword. The current Deadly Assault buffs suggest he may have a more specialized damage mechanic.
ZZZ 3.3 Severian Kit & Mindscape Cinema Leaks V1
The following Severian kit and Mindscape Cinema details are based on current test-server leaks and may change before his official release.
Skill | Effect |
|---|---|
Core Passive | Increases Severian's CRIT DMG by 55%. His Basic Attack can evade incoming attacks and trigger a stronger follow-up. Perfect Dodges grant special stacks that can enhance his Entry Skill, Chain Attack, and Ultimate. He also builds a combat resource through certain attacks and Perfect Dodges, which can be consumed to activate a powerful enhanced Basic Attack. |
Additional Ability | Activates when the squad includes a Support Agent, Stun Agent, or Agent from the same faction. Severian gains an ATK bonus when entering battle or taking the field, lasting 30 seconds. |
Dodge & Dodge Counter | Severian has a fast dash Dodge that generates additional resources after a Perfect Dodge. His Dodge Counter deals Wind DMG, while another Dodge action can provoke enemies and empower his follow-up Basic Attack with guaranteed CRIT and extra CRIT DMG. |
Assist & Entry Skill | His Quick Assist and Defensive Assist deal Wind DMG, while the Defensive Assist also builds heavy Daze. When Severian has the required stacks, switching him onto the field can trigger a special Entry Skill that counts as a Quick Assist. |
Special & EX Special Attack | His Special Attack performs a forward slash and thrust. The EX Special uses a combination of slashes, claw attacks, and cannon fire, deals heavy Wind DMG, and grants a special stack. Holding the skill can consume additional Energy to repeatedly launch Wind blades. |
Chain Attack & Ultimate | His Chain Attack deals heavy multi-hit Wind DMG and generates 50 resource points. His Ultimate performs multiple rapid slashes, deals massive Wind DMG, and generates 100 resource points. |
Mindscape | Effect |
|---|---|
M1 | Grants 100 resource points when entering battle, with a 180-second limit in certain modes. Also increases Basic Attack CRIT DMG by 60%. |
M2 | Upgrades Severian's special Entry Skill into a Chain Attack-type move once every 20 seconds. His enhanced Basic Attack also grants two special stacks, while his Additional Ability provides an extra 15% ATK. |
M3 | Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack levels +2. |
M4 | After triggering a Perfect Dodge or using his enhanced Basic Attack, Severian's attacks ignore 16% of enemy DEF for 15 seconds. |
M5 | Basic Attack, Dodge, Assist, Special Attack, and Chain Attack levels +2. |
M6 | Raises his resource cap to 180. The final hit of his enhanced Basic Attack gains a massive additional damage multiplier and restores 10 resource points per second for 3 seconds. |
Severian's New Outfit
ZZZ 3.3 New W-Engines Overview
 Phoenix’s Signature W-Engine |  Severian ’s Signature W-Engine |
Phoenix’s Signature W-Engine features a fiery red, Easter egg-inspired design that closely matches Phoenix’s rebirth and immortal bird theme. The rounded red-and-white styling also makes it visually distinct from most other W-Engines.
In the current Test 1 version, the W-Engine has 713 Base ATK and 30% Anomaly Mastery. It grants the wearer 75 Anomaly Proficiency, and whenever any squad member triggers an Attribute Anomaly CRIT, the wearer gains 40% Fire DMG for 20s. Repeated triggers refresh the duration.
These values and effects are still based on test-server data and may change before release.
Severian’s Signature W-Engine uses a black-and-gray metallic design that closely matches the armor around his hands in his character artwork. Its heavy mechanical shape and dark color scheme also fit Severian’s overall combat style.
In the current Test 1 version, the W-Engine has 713 Base ATK and 24% CRIT Rate. It increases the wearer’s CRIT DMG by 24%. When the wearer’s Basic Attack hits an enemy, their ATK increases by 15%, and their damage ignores 20% of the target’s Wind RES for 20s.
These stats and effects are still based on test-server data and may change before release.
ZZZ 3.3 Rerun Banners Confirmed
The rerun banners for ZZZ 3.3 have officially been confirmed, locking in Velina and Norma as the featured rerun lineup over the rumored Banyue and Cissia pairings. With HoYoverse finalizing the schedule in the latest Special Program, players can now plan their Polychromes around these two returning Agents.
Velina is one of the best Anomaly picks for Remielle teams, with strong Wind Anomaly and Anomaly Buildup for frequent Windswept and Vortex procs. Norma is a top-tier Stun option with different strengths from Daylin, while also adding solid personal damage and strong Daze.

ZZZ 3.3 Halloween Event & Operation Bagel Season 3 Leaks
ZZZ 3.3 brings two Halloween-themed activities: Spooky Funhouse Tales and Enigma of the Labyrinth: Spooky Trial. Meanwhile, the larger Operation Bagel Season 3 Halloween update, featuring a new map, is scheduled for Version 3.4.
If you're looking to clear the latest challenges and maximize your stage rewards, check out our comprehensive Operation Bagel guide for optimal team setups and clearing strategies.
Spooky Funhouse Tales: Random Play Car Designs
The previously leaked Random Play car designs are actually part of the Version 3.3 event Spooky Funhouse Tales, rather than permanent car skins players can unlock. The event features two Halloween-themed Trickmobile designs, one featuring Belle and Wise and the other inspired by Ukinami Yuzuha.
| Belle & Wise Theme | Ukinami Yuzuha Theme |

 |  |
In Spooky Funhouse Tales, players buy cards to build their decks, then watch battles play out automatically. Different Agents support different deck strategies and playstyles. Completing the event also unlocks the third and final free Angels of Delusion outfit through Angels Support Operation, completing the collection introduced in Version 3.2.
The designs still suggest a Halloween connection to Ukinami Yuzuha and the Spook Shack faction. Their supernatural theme fits the event well, although this connection remains an interpretation of the designs rather than a confirmed story focus.
Operation Bagel Season 3 Halloween Update Leaks (ZZZ 3.4)
The next major Operation Bagel Season 3 Halloween update is planned for ZZZ 3.4, bringing a new map and a Halloween-themed season. Future regular season updates are also expected to introduce more varied limited-time activities.
Version 3.3, meanwhile, focuses mainly on quality-of-life improvements. Players will get new item-management shortcuts, smoother PC and mobile controls, and the ability to discard items or use Tactical Items directly from containers.
Other changes include improved collection sorting, map audio adjustments, and clearer Agent indicators for exclusive Tactical Prisms.
These improvements arrive alongside the Version 3.3 Spooky Trial content, while the larger Halloween-themed map expansion is reserved for Version 3.4.
New collectibles are also on the way. The preview shows red-rarity Bangboo collectibles, while livestream footage suggests that Ye Shunguang and Yixuan figurines will also be obtainable.
ZZZ 3.3 Main Story Leaks and New Boss
Nicole in ZZZ 3.3
Since Belle and Wise arrived in Roscaelifer, Nicole has been nowhere to be seen. Earlier main story hints suggested that she had already made it to Roscaelifer, but her whereabouts remained unknown. In Version 3.3, we are expected to meet Nicole again and learn that the truth behind SP Billy’s upgrade was actually just a mix-up.
Youkai in ZZZ 3.3
Eldreda Sunbringer in ZZZ 3.3
After playing through Version 3.2, it's becoming clear that Eldreda Sunbringer has something big planned behind the scenes. Meanwhile, the greatest crisis Roscaelifer has ever faced seems to be drawing closer.
Youkai is a hostile AI that takes on the appearance of Serpico, the Proxies’ late classmate. During the events in Vilium, Youkai set a trap that successfully drew the attention of the Proxies, Lindverne Sunbringer, and the others away from its real objective.
Working together with an unidentified force, Youkai’s true goal was to seize control of Booastrum.
ZZZ 3.3 Main Story Direction
By the end of Version 3.3, we are expected to resolve the crisis surrounding Booastrum. Youkai will abandon Serpico’s body and escape, while the trapped Cunning Hares and the others will be successfully rescued.
ZZZ 3.3 New Boss Leak: HollowVenger Truvia
That’s right—Truvia ultimately ends up on the opposite side. In the new story, after recovering from her serious injuries, Truvia gains immense power through an Etheric entity that also comes from Helios Academy and becomes part of the final scheme orchestrated by Youkai.
At a certain point in the fight, Truvia transforms into a mermaid-like form, reverse-gripping her sword and using it as a staff. She then pulls the Agents into a Singularity Leakage, where she uses her spatial abilities and clones to launch coordinated attacks, making her a particularly difficult boss to deal with.
Below is a preview of her boss model.
ZZZ 3.3 Pull Recommendations
Whether a Version 3.3 Agent is worth pulling depends on how much you like their gameplay or design, and how well they fit your current teams. Overall, the new Agents are likely to offer stronger pull value.
| Character Type | Pull Recommendation |
|---|---|
| New Agents | Phoenix: The final piece for Remielle teams Severian: A DPS option for a new team archetype |
| Rerun Agents | Recommended mainly if you like their design or already have compatible teammates. |
If you started playing ZZZ around Remielle's debut, Velina is an easy recommendation during this rerun. She has fantastic synergy with Remielle and takes her Anomaly teams to the next level. If you find Velina's Energy Regen lacking and her rotations a bit clunky, her signature W-Engine, is definitely worth a look.
On the other hand, while Norma is an excellent Stun Agent, her pull value heavily depends on your account. If you're already running Dialyn for direct-damage setups or Nangong Yu for Anomaly teams, Norma is a very safe skip. She's undeniably a great unit, but you should evaluate your current Stun options and team gaps before committing your Polychromes.
Conclusion
If you want to strengthen your Remielle team further, Phoenix could become one of the most important pieces in the lineup, potentially even the final piece that completes the Remielle–Velina Anomaly core. Her value looks especially high if the current leaks about her Anomaly support and Disorder-focused kit prove accurate.
Severian, meanwhile, stands out as a Wind Attack Agent with a more distinctive playstyle than most existing Attack Agents. Based on the current Test 1 kit, he looks promising, but his final performance and pull value will still depend on later balance changes before release.
Whether you plan to pull the new Version 3.3 Agents or wait for the Velina and Norma reruns, preparing enough Polychrome in advance is the safer choice. Top up Zenless Zone Zero on GamsGo and save on your budget and get more Polychrome for the same spend, so that you can get a better chance of bringing home the Agent you want.
