Looking for how to get Polychrome in Zenless Zone Zero? Polychrome is the most important currency in HoYoverse's urban fantasy RPG, because it can be exchanged for Encrypted Tapes, Master Tapes, and Battery Charge, all of which form the foundations of the release. On this page, as part of our Zenless Zone Zero guide, we're going to explain how to get Polychrome.

What Is Polychrome in Zenless Zone Zero?

Polychrome is the most important currency in Zenless Zone Zero because it's used to purchase Encrypted Tapes and Master Tapes as well as Battery Charge. The currency has a similar function to Primogems in Genshin Impact and Stellar Jade in Honkai: Star Rail.

Encrypted Tapes can be used to pull on time-limited banners, and therefore is the main item you should be spending your Polychrome on.

You can also use Polychrome to purchase Battery Charge, which serves as stamina in the game and allows you to conduct more activities per day. However, this resource automatically replenishes over time, so we'd suggest you spend your Polychrome elsewhere. Similarly, we wouldn't recommend wasting Polychrome on Master Tapes as these are the currency used to pull on the standard banner, and it's much more valuable to invest your resources into Encrypted Tapes instead.
