ZCoin is a currency within Blacklight: Retribution that can be purchased with real money.

Overview[]

ZCOIN items

Most items that can be bought with ZCoin

ZCoin is the name of the virtual currency used in Blacklight: Retribution that allows players to buy in-game items with real-world money.

ZCoin vs GP[]

GP (Game Points), which are awarded for playing matches, can be used to buy all non-cosmetic items.

ZCoin can alternatively be used to purchase any item, short-cutting the need to accumulate GP.

However, almost all cosmetic items can only be purchased with ZCoin. Additionally, during Events there are some items that can only be purchased with ZCoin. These event items are often reskins of current existing items or new Camos.

Purchase Tips[]

Some helpful tips to get your moneys worth from your Zcoin purchase.

In-Game[]

Within the store there is an option to Bulk Purchase using Zcoin. (This process does not apply to GP) The Bulk Purchase feature can be accessed while in the Customization Menu. Doing this will provide a benefit of an increase of 1% off and stacks per additional item added while using the Bulk Purchase Feature. While not an extraordinary discount it is still worth noting it does increase depending on how many items are added. For instance if a person buys 2 items using the bulk purchase that equates to 2% off the entire total price, 5 items means 5% off and so forth. The limit this can be implemented is 15 times for a total of 15% off for the entire purchase.

PSN discounts[]

The price on each Zcoin bundle within the PlayStation Store contains a small bonus of added Zcoin as an incentive to purchase more Zcoin. The higher cost of the bundle, the greater the bonus increases. For instance there is a greater bonus when you buy the 20 dollar versus buying two separate 10 dollar purchases. If a player plans to eventually spend over 100 dollars, there is a greater bonus of Zcoin versus 5 purchases of the 20 bundle pack.

Issues[]

Two instances exist for ZCoin issue resolution:

  • For instances where the player has issued money through the PlayStation Network to buy ZCoin and that ZCoin amount does not appear in their account.
  • Item purchases made with ZCoin ingame and that item not being unlocked into the players inventory as having been purchased. Please confirm in the Customization Menu for your item prior to submitting.
    • Players can find info for submitting a ticket in Player Support to rectify their issue. An account will need to be created to submit a request.
    • These refunds are not for instances of ZCoin or Item purchase regret. ZCoin purchases are final.

Trivia[]

  • Before the North American arm of Perfect World Entertainment became ARC, ZCoin was known as Zen. Zen could be purchased for any PWE game, but was irrevocably linked to whichever game it got linked to.
