Commissions are a major part of gameplay in Zenless Zone Zero. As players complete commissions, they will unravel the mysteries of the Hollows, engage with various Factions, and progress through Phaethon's Story. These missions are often tied to key events and interactions with significant characters, driving the overarching plot forward.
Types[]
Commissions are typically put under five main categories. These categories have further sub-categories, based on the specific content of each commission.
Story Commissions[]
Story Commissions are directly linked to the main plot, often featuring unique battles and pivotal narrative moments. They are split between overworld content and HDD content. Key narrative moments are recorded in the Video Archive, while combat and exploration events are recorded in the HDD.
Once a Story Commission has been completed, it cannot be replayed in its entirety. Only the "Special Event" dialogue can be rewatched from the Video Archive, while any combat or exploration events that do get recorded in the HDD are infinitely replayable and can later be attempted on "Hard Mode."
Rank-Up Commissions are a subtype of Story Commissions, which become available upon reaching certain Inter-Knot Levels, and are the only way to raise Proxy Rank. These commissions are given to the player by Shepherd upon reaching Inter-Knot levels 20, 30, 40, and 50 respectively.
Exploration Commissions[]
Exploration Commissions typically take place in Hollows and use the HDD's Hollow-layout, also commonly referred to as "TV Mode." The player, under their (Proxy)(Proxy) alias, takes control of Eous to explore an area, to either find information or to complete a task for a client.
Exploration Missions may or may not feature Enemies; however, they will always have three 
Hollow Observation Data for the player to obtain.
Combat Commissions[]
Combat Commissions typically feature combat against various enemies. The player will select a team of up to three Agents to take into an area and fight up to several waves of enemies.
Combat Commissions will usually impose certain restrictions, such as defeating the enemies within a certain time limit, or not having any Agents fall in battle.
City Commissions[]
City Commissions take place in the overworld of New Eridu, and usually involve performing tasks or engaging in dialogue with various NPCs.
City Commissions are not replayable and do not get recorded in the Video Archive or the HDD.
Trust Commissions[]
Trust Commissions are special commissions that involve the player interacting with their obtained Agents. They are unlocked by sending Invites to Agents through Knock Knock, or by leveling up an Agent's Trust Rank through Invites and Trust Events.
Trust Commissions are not replayable, but certain scenes are recorded in the Partner Archive.
