Phantom Blade Zero

## System requirements

TBD

**Phantom Blade Zero** is an upcoming Action RPG featuring deep and dark art style, fast paced combat, and a fictitious world blending Chinese martial arts and steampunk! Phantom Blade Zero is developed by S-GAME and its a spiritual rebirth of the *Rainblood: Town of Death* indie game that was released only in China.

## Premise

Phantom World, the universe in which the game is set, is a place where many kinds of powers converge. Here you’ll find Chinese Kung Fu, intricate machines reminiscent of steampunk, arts of the occult, and other intriguing elements that don’t quite fit into any of these categories.

In Phantom Blade Zero, you play as Soul, an elite assassin serving an elusive but powerful organization known simply as “The Order.” Soul is framed for the murder of The Order’s patriarch, gravely injured in the ensuing manhunt, and, though his life is saved by a mystic healer, the makeshift cure will only last for 66 days. Now, he must fight against powerful foes and inhuman monstrosities, all while seeking out the mastermind behind it all before his time runs out.

## Gameplay

Phantom Blade Zero unfolds in a semi-open world, consisting of multiple large maps filled with diverse, handcrafted activities.

This world of Phantom Blade Zero is bleak and punishing, a constant reminder to never let your guard down. Seeking out the game’s many challenges and power foes will reward you with weapons, armor, artifacts, skills, and other ways to customize or progress your character.

Phantom Blade Zero houses the protagonist, Soul, who’s a talented assassin serving the organization called ‘The Order’.

## Trivia

* This is not the first game in the series, previously S-Game studio released mobile Phantom Blade games, but now the developers have decided to try their hand at developing a project for home platforms.
* The Phantom Blade Zero concept was developed back in 2017, but the game designers didn't get to the active stage until 2022, so we shouldn't expect a release in the coming years, especially since there are only a few people working on the project.
* The events of Phantom Blade Zero unfold in a fantasy universe that combines eastern culture, steampunk and the occult. The protagonist is an assassin named Soul. \* During the mission he is killed, but the mysterious healer manages to bring Soul back to life. Soul has only 66 days to live, so you must do whatever you need to.
* The Phantom Blade Zero story campaign will take 30-40 hours to complete, but the action has a lot of additional content, both single and multiplayer.
* The game is structured as a semi-open world: there will be spacious but separate locations.
* Phantom Blade Zero uses S-Game's own Combo Chain system. It will allow gamers to make complex and spectacular combinations of punches with the push of only two buttons.
* The trailer shown on PlayStation Showcase reflects the actual gameplay of the game, and has only been slightly tweaked to make it more spectacular.
* S-Game did not sign a contract for exclusivity on Phantom Blade Zero, so the game is likely to be released on multiple platforms at once.
