Anime Adventures Zombie in our tier list
S Zombie earns S in our ranking as a multiplier, not a carry. In showcase videos each copy gives every summon +25% damage and +10% range, up to 8 copies, and the buff stacks with other buffers. See the full Anime Adventures Tier List.
Anime Adventures Zombie strengths and weaknesses
Strengths
- It lifts a whole summon lineup: the creators we compared show +25% damage and +10% range per copy, up to +200% and +80% at 8 copies.
- The buff stacks with other buffer units, according to the creators we compared, so Zombie adds to a support line instead of pushing one out.
- At capture time on November 3, 2026 it took 50% of the Special banner Mythic rate and held the middle pity slot, an easy Mythic to aim at.
Weaknesses
- It adds little without summons: creators use Zombie to buff summoners, not to carry damage.
- The cap is 8 Zombies, but one creator found you can place 4 yourself, so a solo board reaches +100% damage, half the headline number.
- The Special banner rotates. On November 3, 2026 it showed a 28:22 countdown, so Zombie may not be featured when you log in.
Our take
- Our read: pull Zombie only if you own or plan to get a summoner such as Elyssia. While it holds the middle slot, the 400 pity points at it, so spend Gems during that rotation, not after.
- The trap is the Summer skin. Zombie (Summer) dresses a copy you already own, so pulling it first leaves you with nothing to place. Pull the unit first; the skin can wait.
How to get Zombie
Zombie is a Special banner Mythic in Anime Adventures, the Gomu group’s tower defense game on Roblox. At capture time on November 3, 2026 it was the middle portrait of the three featured Mythics, between Thunder Maid and Bloodcry, and it took 50% of the banner’s Mythic rate. One source reports that evolving it gives Zombie (Risen), the name the creator tier lists we compare rank. Zombie (Summer) is not a third unit. It is a Mythic Skin from the Summer banner that you put on a Zombie you already own, so pulling it never adds a new unit to your roster.
A Special summon costs 50 Gems, and Mythics roll at 0.5%, shown as a 2x Mythic rate up. Zombie took 50% of that Mythic rate. The pity counter read Featured (Middle) Pity 0/400, and Zombie held the middle spot that day.
The line-up does not stay put. On November 3, 2026 the banner showed an Available until countdown of 28:22, so confirm it is still in the middle before you spend. Every unit on the Special banner has a 1% chance to be Shiny, Zombie included. Creators call it Giselle, from Bleach.
Zombie, Zombie (Risen) and Zombie (Summer)
Zombie, Zombie (Risen) and Zombie (Summer)
The chart at the top of this section sets the three names side by side: a banner unit, its evolved form and a cosmetic. As noted above, the Risen name rests on a single source, and we have not seen it in game ourselves. Two sources list Zombie (Risen) as Physical damage with the Storm element and Zombie as a ground unit, so plan a ground spot on the path for it.
Zombie (Summer) causes most of the confusion. The Summer banner lists it in a Mythic Skin row at 0.249%, separate from the Mythic unit row. Three creators treat it as a skin you equip on a copy you already have. If you do not own Zombie, the skin gives you nothing to place. Summer summons also cost 150 SummerPearls, not Gems.
The skin is more than a new look. Creators testing the Summer banner found that its Mythic skins, this one among them, raise Summer event currency and the chance at secret portals, though they disagree on the size, so we print no percentage. A different creator, alone on this point, found that landing the skin does not reset the Summer banner Mythic pity.
What the Zombie buff does
Across the showcase videos we compared, the buff works per copy: every one on the map gives each summon 25% more damage and 10% more range, up to 8 copies, for +200% damage and +80% range. It also stacks with other buffer units, so it adds to a support line instead of competing with it. A single showcase shows you can place 4 Zombies yourself, and four copies give +100% damage, double what each summon dealt before.
The word that matters is summon. We take that to mean a unit that attacks directly gains nothing from it, which is why creators use Zombie to power summoners rather than to deal damage itself.
That is the case for its rank: it sits in S on our list. Four copies double every summon on the board, which lifts the whole team rather than one slot. The full ranking lives on our anime adventures tier list.
Best partners: Elyssia and other summoners
The pairing every source we compared agrees on is Elyssia: Zombie plus Elyssia is the core of the strongest teams, because Elyssia attacks through summons and those summons are what the buff reaches. The more of a unit’s damage comes from summons, the more Zombie multiplies it.
Sky God is a second option. One creator found the Zombie buff also reaches the ark that Sky God summons. Sky God also has its own Summer event quest, which asks you to clear your own Sky Gods Portal.
Since the buff stacks, a second buffer does not waste a Zombie slot. To find more kits that fight through summons, browse our anime adventures units hub.
Best traits for Zombie
Our read: this unit wants no rare trait, and Unique is the one to avoid. The in-game text for Unique says Max 1 placed. Its value comes from how many copies stand on the map, so a Unique Zombie caps you at one copy and a 25% buff, instead of the four placements mentioned above.
Range traits do not stretch the buff on paper either, since each copy already reaches every summon on the map. Damage traits raise only its own hits, and creators do not field it for damage. Put Divine, Celestial and Unique rolls on the summoner that takes the buff, where each point gets multiplied.
If a Zombie arrives with a trait, keep it, but do not chase one: a reroll costs a Trait Reroll Token or, creators report, five Star Remnants on a Mythic, and replaces the current traits with no lock. Odds for every roll are on our anime adventures traits page.
What we have not confirmed
The buff counts 8 Zombies while the single report we have puts placements at 4 per player, and we have not confirmed whether a teammate’s copies count toward your 8. The 25% and 10% figures are player reports, not in-game text we captured, and we list no evolution materials for Zombie (Risen) until we can read them in game.
What to pair with Anime Adventures Zombie
- Elyssia: Four creators name Zombie plus Elyssia as the core of the strongest teams, because Elyssia attacks through summons and this buff reaches summons.
- Sky God: One source reports the Zombie buff also reaches the ark that Sky God summons, which gives a second summoner to pair it with.
Anime Adventures Zombie FAQ
Is Zombie good in Anime Adventures?
Yes, for summon teams. It sits in S on our list as a support. Players report each copy gives every summon +25% damage and +10% range, up to 8 copies. With no summoners on the board, it adds little.
How do you get Zombie in Anime Adventures?
Summon on the Special banner at 50 Gems a pull. At capture time on November 3, 2026 Zombie held the middle featured slot and took 50% of the Mythic rate, and the Featured (Middle) pity was 400 summons. The banner rotates, so check it first.
What is the difference between Zombie and Zombie (Risen) in Anime Adventures?
The Special banner is where the Zombie unit itself comes from. A single source says Zombie (Risen) is the form you get by evolving it, and the creator tier lists we compare rank that evolved name. Two sources list the evolved form as Physical damage with the Storm element.
Is Zombie (Summer) a separate unit?
No. The Summer banner lists Zombie (Summer) in its Mythic Skin row at 0.249%, apart from the Mythic units, and three creators treat it as a skin you put on a copy you already own. Pulling it does not add a second unit to your roster.
What is the best trait for Zombie in Anime Adventures?
Our read: no rare trait. The buff counts copies on the map, and Unique allows only one placed, so it cuts you to a single copy. Save Divine, Celestial and Unique for the summoner that takes the buff.
How many Zombies does the buff count?
Players we compared report it counts up to 8 Zombies, for +200% damage and +80% range on summons. One creator found you can place 4 yourself, which gives +100% damage, double what each summon dealt before.
Can you get a Shiny Zombie?
The Special banner says any unit has a 1% chance to be Shiny, and that covers this unit. We have no further Shiny detail to add, such as how it looks or whether it changes the buff.
