When HoYoverse suddenly went live this morning, we thought we were finally getting a full Sunbringer reveal. Turns out, it was more of a teaser. Some new artwork, a redemption code, and that was pretty much it.
But don't let the short stream fool you. It actually answered some of the questions we've been asking for months. Are Eldreda, Dracaene, and Lindverne coming as three separate Agents or one 3-in-1 character? What's Sunbringer's attribute and specialty? We finally have some answers, including her unusual blue Fire and Armorer specialty.
We'll keep this article updated with the latest ZZZ Sunbringer news, from her 3-in-1 gameplay to upcoming reveals and release details. And if you're already preparing for the rumored ZZZ 3.4 collab, you can also top up Zenless Zone Zero on GamsGo.
SUNBRINGER Redemption Code: Redeem SUNBRINGER for 30 Polychromes through the official Zenless Zone Zero redemption page. This is a limited-time code, so be sure to claim your rewards before it expires.
Latest Sunbringer Reveal: Eldreda, Dracaene and Lindverne
This time, HoYoverse did something unusual with its Agent Record. Instead of the usual single-Agent splash art, Eldreda, Dracaene, and Lindverne all appear together in one official Sunbringer illustration, with Eldreda taking center stage.

That wasn't the only clue. Their individual teasers didn't reveal separate attributes or specialties. Instead, the final Agent Record brought all three together under the Sunbringer name, complete with a shared Fire attribute and Armorer specialty.
This strongly confirms that Sunbringer is a 3-in-1 Agent, rather than three separate characters arriving on different banners.
What remains unclear is how the three will actually work in combat. Will we be able to switch between Eldreda, Dracaene, and Lindverne, or will Eldreda take the lead while the other two join her attacks? We'll need the gameplay reveal to find out.
Latest ZZZ 3.4 and Future Leaks
Beyond Sunbringer's reveal, a new batch of leaks has been making the rounds, covering everything from Version 3.4 banners to potential buffs and future Void Hunters. Take these with a grain of salt, but some of them are pretty interesting.
- No Spending Event, but Robin's W-Engine at 200 Pulls? Version 3.4 reportedly won't have a cumulative top-up event. Instead, Robin's signature W-Engine could be available as a milestone reward after 200 pulls.
- Sunbringer Skin for 2,680 Monochromes: One purchase, three outfits! The rumored skin bundle would cover all three Sunbringers, with Eldreda, Dracaene, and Lindverne also getting their own separate hangout invitations.
- The No-50/50 Banner May Return: Another guaranteed S-Rank rerun banner could feature three selectable Agents. Cissia and Starlight Billy are possible picks, with Ju Fufu or Sigrid potentially taking the third slot.
- Shorter Version 3.5 and Cecilia in 3.6: Version 3.5 may be shortened to make room for the Lunar New Year update. Cecilia is also rumored to become playable in Version 3.6.
- Vivian and Ju Fufu Buffs: Both could receive Potential Activation upgrades. Vivian's changes are especially interesting, as they may help her work better with Kafka, potentially giving the HSR crossover Agent another strong teammate.
- Another Wind Void Hunter in Version 3.7: Sunbringer might not be the last Void Hunter of Season 3. There's already talk of another Void Hunter with the Wind attribute and Attack specialty arriving around Version 3.7.
- HSR Crossover Banners May Last Longer: Robin and Kafka's collaboration banners might not follow the usual three-week rotation. They could stay available for an extended period, giving players more time to save and pull.
A Free S-Rank Outfit? We might also be getting a free S-Rank Agent outfit, reportedly on the same level as Vivian's swimsuit skin. No word yet on which Agent will get it.
If even half of these leaks turn out to be true, Version 3.4 and the following updates are going to be packed. For now, we're especially curious about the Sunbringer skin bundle, Vivian's potential buffs, and that mysterious Wind Void Hunter.
ZZZ Sunbringer Gameplay
Now that Sunbringer's 3-in-1 concept is confirmed, the next question is how Eldreda, Dracaene, and Lindverne will actually fight together. There are three main theories worth looking at:
- Three Switchable Forms: All three Sunbringers could be playable, with players switching between them during combat. Each might have a different fighting style, making Sunbringer a true three-in-one Agent.
- Eldreda as the Main Fighter: Eldreda could handle most of the on-field combat, while Dracaene appears for defensive assists and counters, and Lindverne handles EX Special Attacks or burst damage.
- Coordinated Combat: Instead of freely switching forms, the three could fight together through coordinated attacks, Aftershocks, or special animations, somewhat like Pyrois or the Angels of Delusion.
The biggest concern is whether Dracaene and Lindverne will get enough actual gameplay time. Having all three in one Agent sounds great for saving Polychromes, but it would be disappointing if two of them only appeared for a few seconds during skill animations.
Saturday, October 24 should bring more answers. Hopefully, the next reveal will show how the three Sunbringers work together and whether players can freely control their favorite.
ZZZ Sunbringer Fire Armorer, Special Fire and Void Hunter
Sunbringer's latest Agent Record features four icons, and each one tells us something interesting about her identity and potential gameplay.
Void Hunter: A Familiar Symbol
The first is the familiar Void Hunter emblem, which we've already seen on Miyabi, Ye Shunguang, and Remielle. As one of the original Void Hunters, Sunbringer carrying this symbol comes as no surprise.
Enchainer: A Symbol from the Hive Lord Hollow
If you watched the second anniversary Prophecy MV, the second icon might look familiar. The same symbol is closely tied to the Hive Lord Hollow and has appeared as an important part of Sunbringer's design.
It now looks more like a special Enchainer emblem. We might see other Enchainers with this symbol in the future, but Sunbringer's connection to both the Void Hunters and Enchainers already makes her particularly interesting.
Special Fire: Lindverne's Blue Flames
The third icon resembles Fire, but it's noticeably different from the standard Fire attribute symbol.
We've actually seen a possible hint in the story already. Lindverne's abilities feature dim blue flames, suggesting Sunbringer may use a special Fire variant, much like Miyabi's Frost compared to regular Ice. Its actual combat mechanics remain unknown.
Armorer: Could Sunbringer Enable Double-Armorer Teams?
The fourth icon confirms Sunbringer's Armorer specialty.
Claret's Additional Ability already supports teams with multiple Armorers. When she or a teammate triggers Maim, all Armorer Agents gain 25% Laceration DMG for 40 seconds. With Sunbringer now confirmed as another Armorer, could this be the start of a new dual-DPS team?
ZZZ Sunbringer Release Date, Version 3.4 and Skins
Sunbringer is expected to arrive in ZZZ Version 3.4, around December 2, 2026. The timing fits the recent story developments and her sudden official reveal, although HoYoverse hasn't confirmed her release date yet.
As a Void Hunter, Sunbringer may also receive a 42-day banner lasting the entire version, following the precedent set by Ye Shunguang and Remielle. Nothing is confirmed yet, but it would make sense for such a highly anticipated Agent.
There's more to look forward to than just pulling Sunbringer. Leaked outfit models have already shown alternate looks for Eldreda and Dracaene, while Lindverne has also appeared in a different outfit in the story. All three having their own skins seems increasingly likely, though how these outfits will be released remains unknown.
With three Sunbringers, a mysterious blue Fire attribute, and potentially three separate outfits, there's still plenty left to reveal. We'll keep this article updated as HoYoverse shares more about Sunbringer's gameplay, banner schedule, and skins.
What Happened to Eldreda After ZZZ 3.3?
Spoilers for the ZZZ 3.4 main story ahead.
Version 3.3 ends with Eldreda staying behind as the Hive Lord Hollow breaks out of containment, leaving her fate unknown. But there's one detail we might have overlooked in the second anniversary MV, Prophecy. And true to its name, it may have already shown us what happens next.
Remember the scene where Eldreda appears to hold a miniature Hollow in the palm of her hand? It looks remarkably similar to the Hive Lord Hollow after being compressed. What if this isn't just a glimpse of the past, but a hint at what's coming?
With Sunbringer's 3-in-1 concept now revealed, perhaps Eldreda will take the lead, combining her powers with Dracaene and Lindverne to bring the Hive Lord Hollow back under control, or even transform it into something entirely new. It's still just a theory, but that scene in Prophecy suddenly feels a lot more important after the 3.3 ending.
Conclusion
The October 24 livestream should finally give us more concrete answers, including Sunbringer's first gameplay showcase and details about the ZZZ 3.4 collab banners. We'll update this article as soon as the new information is confirmed.
But that leaves us with one more question. If Version 3.4 is already packed with Sunbringer and the Honkai: Star Rail crossover, where is Storyteller?
Sunbringer FAQ
Is Sunbringer One Agent or Three Separate Pulls?
Sunbringer's latest Agent Record confirms the 3-in-1 concept, bringing Eldreda, Dracaene, and Lindverne together as one Agent. We expect all three to come from a single banner pull, rather than three separate banners.
Can You Switch Between Eldreda, Dracaene, and Lindverne?
Not confirmed yet. The three might have switchable forms, or Eldreda could be the main fighter while Dracaene and Lindverne assist through special attacks. We should know more once HoYoverse reveals her gameplay.
Is Sunbringer's Blue Fire a New Attribute?
It appears to be a special Fire variant, similar to Miyabi's Frost. Lindverne's blue flames and Sunbringer's unusual attribute icon support this theory, but its official name and combat mechanics remain unknown.
Will Sunbringer Be Released in ZZZ 3.4?
I expect Sunbringer to arrive in Version 3.4, around December 2, 2026. Her recent reveal and the 3.3 story ending make that timing likely, but HoYoverse hasn't officially confirmed her banner date.
Will All Three Sunbringers Have Separate Skins?
It's looking likely! We've already seen alternate outfits for Eldreda and Dracaene in leaked models, while Lindverne has another look in the story. Whether these become separate purchasable skins or a bundled set is still unknown.
Should I Skip Phoenix and Save for Sunbringer?
I'd consider Phoenix if you're already running Remielle and Velina and want to improve that team. Otherwise, saving for Sunbringer is a reasonable choice, especially with Version 3.4 approaching. Her actual strength is still unknown.
