ZZZ 3.3 banners: Phoenix and Velina run until Nov. 11, and we expect Severian's banner on Nov. 11 at noon ET

Zenless Zone Zero 3.3 opens with Phoenix, and the second new S-Rank Agent waits for the second half. Here’s when every ZZZ 3.3 banner starts and ends, which W-Engines come with them and when we expect Severian.

ZZZ 3.3 Phase I banners

Phase I runs from the Version 3.3 update to Nov. 11, 2026, at 11:59 a.m. server time. It has two Exclusive Channels: Into the Flames of Life with the new S-Rank Agent Phoenix (Fire, Anomaly) and Graceful Gale with Velina (Wind, Anomaly). The W-Engine Channels feature Plume of Rebirth for Phoenix and Joyau Dore for Velina, both S-Rank Anomaly W-Engines.

The Search count toward a guaranteed S-Rank carries over between all Exclusive Channels, and separately between all W-Engine Channels, according to the official notice. Neither Phoenix nor Velina joins the standard Star-Studded Cast channel.

When does the Phoenix banner end?

Nov. 11 at 11:59 a.m. server time. On the America server, which runs on UTC-5, that’s 11:59 a.m. ET, since the US is back on standard time from Nov. 1. On the Europe server, Phase I closes at 5:59 a.m. ET, and on the Asia server at 10:59 p.m. ET on Nov. 10.

Until then, The Final Callback audition stages let Proxies at Inter-Knot Lv. 8 try Phoenix and Velina and claim rewards for the first clear of each stage.

When is Severian’s banner?

Expected: Nov. 11, 2026, at noon server time, our estimate, which is noon ET on the America server. The official update notes list Severian, an S-Rank Wind Attack Agent, in the Answers in the Wind channel, and Incarcerating Grip, an S-Rank Attack W-Engine, in its own channel. The Phase I notice leaves both out, so we expect them in Phase II as soon as Phase I closes.

Version 3.3 adds Agent Trust Events and Quality Time Events for both Phoenix and Severian, and the new story chapter, Journey to the Sky, opens two restricted areas on Quietude Isle and at the Airspace Control Tower.

When did ZZZ 3.3 come out, and when does 3.4 arrive?

Version 3.3 maintenance started on Oct. 21 at 6 a.m. China time, which was Oct. 20 at 6 p.m. ET, and took about five hours. Every Proxy at Inter-Knot Lv. 4 or higher gets 300 Polychrome for the maintenance and another 300 for an issue fix, which has to be claimed by Nov. 20.

The official notes say Version 3.3 runs 42 days and ends on Dec. 2 at 6 a.m. China time, which is Tuesday, Dec. 1, at 5 p.m. ET, so that’s our expected date for Version 3.4.

Phoenix outfits and Spooky Funhouse Tales

Phoenix gets two outfits, The Illness Called Life and Daydream Complex, each at 1,350 Monochrome instead of 1,680 until the end of Version 3.3. The limited-time Spooky Funhouse Tales event gives out the A-Rank W-Engine Candlelit Scheme.

Genshin Impact fans have a date of their own this week: the Genshin 7.2 livestream starts on Friday, Oct. 23, at 8 a.m. ET, and our HSR 4.7 release date page has Honkai: Star Rail’s next update.

This page is updated as soon as HoYoverse posts the Version 3.3 Phase II notice, with Severian’s exact banner dates.
