Poison Before Sleep gives Zenless Zone Zero players five detective jobs worth Polychromes
A Tuning Calibrator plus enough Polychromes to make free-to-play accounts happy sits behind five story commissions in Zenless Zone Zero’s next limited-time event.
The event goes by Poison Before Sleep, runs from November 11 at 10:00 through November 30 at 03:59 server time, and asks players to act as temporary assistants at The Hobbling Crow Detective Agency while investigating what looks like an attempted poisoning.
If your account meets both entry conditions already you can jump straight into commission one when doors open on launch morning.
The full run ends November 30 at 03:59 server time.
The setup behind the case
The Hobbling Crow Detective Agency takes center stage here because someone slipped poison into ordinary life somewhere in New Eridu.
Agency staff apparently need extra hands right now because their usual rotation cannot cover everything alone.
Who gets in
- Inter-Knot Level: At least Level 20
- Story progress: Main Story Chapter 1, including its Intermission segment
Anyone below those thresholds still has time before launch day because patch maintenance usually gives impatient accounts room to grind out remaining levels or quest steps ahead of release hour.
The investigation unfolds across five incidents
- “Poison Before Sleep,”
- “Crow’s Footprints,”
- “The Nonexistent Server,”
- “Scarecrow and Crow,”
- “Shadows in the Cup.”
