ZZZ codes: how to redeem, and when new ones drop
By DayOneFix Editorial · August 12, 2026
The mechanics first, the calendar second — because with ZZZ the when is as predictable as the how.
How to redeem
- In game (all platforms): open the menu → ⋯ (More) → Redemption Code, enter and confirm. Rewards arrive by in-game mail.
- On the web: HoYoverse runs an official redemption page under zenless.hoyoverse.com — sign in with the account, pick the server, paste the code.
- PlayStation note: codes redeem through the in-game menu or web page like everywhere else; there is no PSN-specific code path.
Mail rewards sit in the inbox with an expiry, so claim them rather than hoarding.
The rhythm that produces codes
ZZZ’s codes follow the HoYoverse pattern almost mechanically:
- Version livestreams drop three codes worth 100 Polychrome each, valid for roughly a day — the single biggest predictable haul.
- Version launches and milestones occasionally add longer-lived codes.
- Everything else circulating on code-list sites is either expired or recycled.
The next expected drop
The 3.2 special program aired on 28 August and did exactly what the pattern predicts: three codes, ~300 Polychrome, about 24 hours of validity. They are all expired — anything still listing them is recycling dead codes.
The next scheduled source is the 3.3 special program. No date for it is announced. What is official is that 3.2 ends on 21 October at 06:00 (UTC+8), and 3.2’s own special program aired twelve days before that version launched — apply the same gap and the 3.3 stream falls somewhere around early-to-mid October. That is arithmetic on one previous cycle, not an announcement, and not a pattern we have checked across more versions than that. We post the codes on the countdown page the moment the stream airs, and mark them expired when they die rather than quietly deleting them — the same policy as every code we list.
If you are stocking up for a pull, note that the 3.2 update compensation is 600 Polychrome across two mails — and the second half, the issue-fix payment, has to be claimed by 9 October 23:59 (UTC+8), earlier than the version itself ends. Details and deadlines are on the 3.2 countdown page; Claret Flint has been live since 9 September.
