Players are often tasked with deciding whether tofocus on Attack characters or Anomaly setups, as well as choosing optimal Support characters, Stun units, and more. Now, one ofZenless Zone Zero’s most unique team-building aspects is seeing a new option.
Bangboos serve an important purpose both within the story ofZenless Zone Zeroand when deciding on a team composition within the game.

Bangboos also play an important role in team-building, with players able to choose one Bangboo to accompany their teams and assist with special attacks and buffs in combat. HoYoverse is now showing off a new Bangboo coming with Version 1.7’s second half.
