Phase 1 runs after the Version 3.2 update through September 30 at 11:59 server time, with confirmed Agent, W-Engine, and trial-stage details.
Zenless Zone Zero 3.2 Phase 1 ends September 30, 2026 at 11:59 server time. The limited Agent channel features Claret, an Electric Armorer, while the matching W-Engine channel features Crimson Thirst. Check the timer on your server before spending; the official notice does not use one universal US time zone.
Phase 1 channel map
| Channel | Featured S-Rank | Default A-Rank rate-ups |
|---|---|---|
| Bloodmoon Rising | Claret — Electric, Armorer | Anton — Electric, Attack; Nicole — Ether, Support |
| Crimson Thirst | Crimson Thirst — Armorer W-Engine | Drill Rig — Red Axis; The Vault |
| Axiom of Captivation | Nangong Yu — Ether, Stun | Anton — Electric, Attack; Nicole — Ether, Support |
The official notice also says the A-Rank Rate Up feature allows players to select two A-Rank Agents or W-Engines. If no custom choices are made, the default pair shown for that channel remains active. Use the in-game Details button to verify the selected pool before confirming a Signal Search.
Try Claret before deciding
The Final Callback audition stage lets eligible players try Claret and Nangong Yu and claim a first-clear reward.
- Reach Inter-Knot Level 8.
- Progress through Main Story Prologue — Intermission until the Event feature unlocks.
- Open the Phase I audition event.
- Clear each available trial once and claim the reward from the results screen.
The trial demonstrates HoYoverse's prepared setup; it does not prove how Claret performs with every account's roster. This page therefore stops at availability, channel rules, and trial access. Use the Claret and Roxy status page for character identity and official role boundaries, not an unsupported day-one tier verdict.
Before spending
- Confirm the countdown uses your server time.
- Open Details and check the S-Rank pool and your selected A-Rank rate-ups.
- Use the audition stage if the decision depends on how Claret's controls and role feel.
- Do not treat the default Anton and Nicole pair as compulsory; the notice describes a selectable A-Rank feature.
- Wait for current, reproducible combat evidence before following a “best team” or material-total claim.
