The wait is finally over! After what felt like an eternity of speculation, the 3rd Season Teaser Trailer for Zenless Zone Zero has dropped, and it delivered everything I could have hoped for and more. With the story shifting to the breathtaking Roscaelifer, the Floating City, we’re about to meet a cast of characters that redefine what it means to be a playable Agent. But just how many new faces are we talking about? A staggering eleven potential recruits, each with their own flair, faction, and fighting style. Let me walk you through every single one of them, because trust me, your Polychrome stash is about to be in serious danger.

Pyrois: The Free Phantom of Phaethon

Kicking off the reveals is a character we’ve technically already met in the 2.8 main story quest. Pyrois is no ordinary Agent; this special life form is a manifestation of Phaethon’s power and will serve as our direct link to combat in Roscaelifer. Think of it as a summonable familiar that lets the protagonist finally step into the fray themselves. What’s the best part? You won’t need to spend a single Polychrome. Just complete the version 3.0 main story quest, and Pyrois joins your roster absolutely free. A fantastic way to hit the ground running.

Velina: The Dignified Guide from External Strategy

Remember that fleeting teaser from the prologue of season two? That was our first glimpse of Velina, and now she’s ready to take center stage. As the head of the External Strategy Department, a brand-new faction, Velina arrives as the poised, graceful woman with a fan who will guide us through the floating city. She’s been confirmed as an S-Rank Anomaly Agent, and she wields the all-new Wind Attribute. I’m already picturing the team compositions she’ll enable. You can pull for her during the first phase of the version 3.0 update – start saving now if you want that wind-elemental powerhouse on your squad.

Norma: The Bangboo-Whisperer

No faction leader travels alone, and Norma is Velina’s right-hand woman. Don’t let her energetic, bubbly demeanor fool you; she’s a specialist in dealing with Bangboos and likely brings some serious combat utility. As a Fire Attribute Stun Specialist, she’ll be a godsend for teams that need to lock down aggressive enemies. The wait won’t be long either – Norma is slated to appear in the second phase of version 3.0, making her a perfect target for anyone who loves a balanced, stun-focused playstyle.

Claret: The Fiery Tsundere

Now we dive into the more mysterious side of the teaser. Claret captured my attention instantly with her fiery attitude and what can only be described as textbook tsundere energy. She’s got that \u201cI’m not here to make friends\u201d vibe, but we all know how those characters end up. She appears to belong to a brand-new faction, and while there’s no official release window yet, a design this unique practically guarantees she’ll become playable. Who wouldn’t want a feisty, flame-haired ally causing chaos on the battlefield?

Roxy: The Intellectual Ice to Claret\u2019s Fire

Every tsundere needs a calm counterpart, and Roxy fits that role beautifully. With her cool blue hair and intellectual aura, she appears side-by-side with Claret in the trailer, which strongly suggests they share a faction. My guess? They’ll be released as a complementary pair, much like previous faction duos. I can already imagine the synergy potential between a calculated support and an impulsive attacker. No confirmed details yet, but if you’re intrigued by strategic team-building, keep your eyes peeled for these two.

Sigrid: The Knight Protector

\u201cLady Sigrid\u201d \u2013 that\u2019s what the NPCs call her, and her regal appearance says it all. From the trailer, she seems to lead a knightly order within Roscaelifer, likely serving as its stalwart protector. The armor-inspired outfit and commanding presence make her a standout design. While her playable debut remains unconfirmed, a character with such high status in the lore almost always becomes available eventually. The question is: will she be a tank, a DPS, or something entirely unexpected?

The Storyteller: Butterfly of Fate

If there\u2019s one character that screams \u201cmain story relevance,\u201d it\u2019s The Storyteller. This mysterious woman wields ink-like butterfly wings and an aura of uncanny power. I\u2019m convinced she will be pivotal in uncovering Phaethon\u2019s past as we explore the floating city. Her design is so ethereal and distinct that it\u2019s hard to imagine her remaining an NPC for long. Could she be tied to the origins of the Proxy\u2019s abilities? A playable Agent this cryptically cool would be an instant fan-favorite.

Phoenix: The Cyborg of Rebirth

A girl wreathed in fire with mechanical wings and a lava-filled backdrop \u2013 Phoenix is as visually intense as her name implies. The teaser suggests she might be an experiment or a cyborg with the ability to control flames, and her namesake hints at self-revival mechanics. Forget standard DPS; a character that can rise from the ashes could completely shake up the meta. Moreover, her aesthetic closely mirrors that of The Storyteller, so I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if the two are linked by fate or faction. Playable? Almost certainly, but we\u2019ll have to wait for news.

Severian: The Familiar Face

Many of us recognized Severian immediately from the season two prologue. As Seth Lowell\u2019s older brother and a high-ranking NEPS officer, he\u2019s been a background enigma for a while. What excites me here is that he already has a workable in-game model, which often means an earlier release compared to more complexly designed characters. Will he finally become a playable agent in the 3rd season? Given the foundation is laid, I\u2019d wager yes \u2013 and sooner rather than later.

Remielle and Sunbringer: The Original Void Hunters

This is where my heart nearly stopped. The trailer\u2019s two headline reveals are nothing less than Remielle and Sunbringer, two of the original Void Hunters. Remielle stands before Sunbringer, demanding answers, hinting at a monumental conflict. As a Void Hunter, Remielle is sure to be a heavy focus of the narrative, much like Miyabi before her. Will she join our roster? History says yes, likely during a major anniversary or a version 3.6 update. And then there\u2019s Sunbringer \u2013 the legendary creator of Bangboos herself! The trailer paints her as a potential antagonist, but let\u2019s be real, story teasers love misdirection. I\u2019m betting both become playable during the 3rd season\u2019s most important patches. Imagine fielding two original Void Hunters on the same team.

With eleven teased agents \u2013 from the freely-obtainable Pyrois to the game-changing Void Hunters \u2013 the 3rd Season of Zenless Zone Zero is shaping up to be its most ambitious chapter yet. The question isn\u2019t if you should save your pulls, but who you\u2019ll finally cave in for. My advice? Start hoarding those Polychromes and Master Tapes today. The Floating City awaits, and it\u2019s bringing a legion of unforgettable allies and enemies straight to your roster.
