How To Get & Use Drive Discs In Zenless Zone Zero

Drive Discs are essential items in that boost an Agent's stats like W-Engines, but you must reach certain parts of the game to unlock them. Although each Agent can only equip one W-Engine at a time, they can have up to six Drive Discs as part of their loadout. When trying to create solid builds, players need to consider both of these elements to get the most out of the playable characters available.

Obtainable in sets, Drive Discs also provide powerful bonuses depending on whether you equip two or four pieces from each one. This means that it's ideal to find as many sets as possible to optimize various pullable Agents you might want to send into the Hollows best. There are multiple ways to get more Drive Discs once unlocked, but it will take a bit of effort first.

Is Zenless Zone Zero multiplayer or a purely single player excursion? The answer is quite a bit different from what players may expect from HoYo.

players will unlock the ability to use Drive Discs after the Inter-Knot Reputation Rank-Up Trial in Chapter 1 The Intermission; this will take roughly 9 to 10 hours of playing through the game's main story. To participate in the trial, you must increase your Inter-Knot level to 20 and obtain 40 pieces of Observation Data. After the mission, go back to the sibling of your playable protagonist in Random Play, and you'll have your first set of ZZZ Drive Discs to equip — Shockstar Disco.

Drive Discs in can also be tuned (crafted) once players open Bardic Needle — a music store opposite Random Play on Sixth Street which unlocks at Inter-Knot Level 25. Disk Drives can also be earned as rewards for completing Routine Cleanup missions after the Chapter 2 story mission, «Trace to the Source» and reaching Inter-Knot Level 26.

There are also Rally Commissions which are unlocked later in the story. Rally Commissions, Routine Cleanup, and dismantling Drive Discs at Bardic Needle also reward you with Plating Agents — the material needed for crafting more.
