Zenless Zone Zero features a gacha banner pull system that makes the game more interesting. Nevertheless, the unpredictability of the banner system can be quite a problem, especially if you are targeting a certain hero. As such, pulling banners in the game requires the in-game currency known as Polychromes. Having more Polychromes allows you to pull more characters from the banner, and thankfully, the game features several methods of farming Polychromes.

As mentioned above, there are multiple ways to get your hands on Polychromes Zenless Zone Zero, including both free and paid ways. While the free methods can reward you with a substantial amount of Polychromes, they can be time-consuming. In contrast, paid methods allow you to acquire Polychromes quickly and easily.
