Zenless Zone Zero Unveils Banyue in Latest Drip Marketing Push

The highly anticipated character, Banyue, has been officially revealed through the Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ) 2.4 drip marketing campaign on October 12, 2025.

In the narrative, Banyue is referred to as Shifu in Failume Heights, where he is dedicated to safeguarding citizens from various threats, ranging from scams to monstrous creatures.

In discussing Banyue’s role, Ye Shunguang, a Thiren from Yunkui Summit, commented on his protective nature. Dialyn, the first character revealed in this marketing campaign, once humorously attempted to give Banyue a hair transplant, showcasing a lighthearted side to their interactions.

As the drip marketing campaign progresses, players have begun to speculate on Banyue’s release timing. He is expected to appear in the second phase of the upcoming update, which is projected to go live around November 26, 2025, coinciding with the end of Yidhari’s banner from version 2.3. While exact dates remain unconfirmed by HoYoverse, the anticipation is building within the community.

In summary, the reveal of Banyue adds a new layer to the Zenless Zone Zero universe, as players eagerly await further details. The character’s unique attributes and backstory promise to enrich gameplay and enhance the immersive experience.
