The gaming landscape is buzzing with excitement as the ZZZ 2.1’s banners introduce a captivating new faction known as the Spook Shack. Among its ranks is a support unit poised to enhance the performance of some of the game’s most formidable characters. As an added bonus, two celebrated characters are making their first reruns, along with HoYoverse’s generous offer of free 10-pulls, ensuring a festive spirit continues even after the anniversary. While the ZZZ anniversary celebrations have concluded, the festivities still flourish.
In this article, we will detail the characters featured in the ZZZ 2.1 banners and provide insights on the abilities and roles of newcomers Yuzuha and Alice.
ZZZ 2.1 Banners Phase 1 – Introducing Yuzuha and Miyabi
The first phase of ZZZ 2.1 banners is set to launch with the version update on July 16, 2025—although players in different time zones may experience it on July 15. While HoYoverse has yet to reveal any A-rank agents for this banner, players can look forward to these two powerful S-rank characters:
-
Ukinami Yuzuha – Type: Physical, Role: Support
-
Hoshimi Miyabi – Type: Ice, Role: Anomaly
Yuzuha’s abilities make her an exceptional choice for both Anomaly and Aftershock teams—particularly effective in Soldier 0 Anby compositions. She introduces a unique method of combat, utilizing candy bombs that increase enemy susceptibility to Anomaly buildup, while her signature ability aligns with another character’s Anomaly type, thereby enhancing the buildup rate. Notably, the damage inflicted by her attacks also triggers Aftershock effects, making her an integral asset for Pulchra, Soldier 0 Anby, and Trigger teams.
Miyabi, an established Anomaly character, adeptly inflicts two varieties of ice Anomaly and has the ability to immobilize foes with ease. Despite her earlier debut, she remains a dominant force in ZZZ, needing only the collaboration of another Anomaly character to unlock her full potential.
ZZZ 2.1 Banners Phase 2 – Featuring Alice and Yanagi
Three weeks later, the second phase of ZZZ 2.1 banners debuts on August 6, 2025, featuring two additional Anomaly characters:
-
Alice Thymefield – Type: Physical, Role: Anomaly
-
Tsukishiro Yanagi – Type: Electric, Role: Anomaly
Alice Thymefield emerges as a Physical Anomaly agent who specializes in bolstering Assault and Disorder damage through her unique attacks and Blade Etiquette stacks. Meanwhile, Yanagi excels at inflicting Shock, although her combo execution requires some time, making her best suited for teams with off-field supports like Vivian.
Additionally, players will encounter a new S-rank character, Miss Esme, seemingly a character with the ability to replenish energy and HP during the 2.1 update.
