When is the Phantom Blade Zero release date?
Phantom Blade Zero releases on October 28, 2026 in the United States and select regions. The date shown in most global marketing is October 29. The difference is a regional timing issue rather than two separate launches: the official PlayStation Blog specifically notes that October 29 becomes October 28 in the US and select markets.
What time does Phantom Blade Zero unlock?
The US PlayStation Store lists the PS5 release for 10:00 p.m. ET on October 28, which is 7:00 p.m. PT and 2:00 a.m. UTC on October 29. PC players should treat Steam and Epic Games Store countdowns as the final authority for their storefront, because S-GAME has not published a separate global PC launch-time map.
There is no announced paid early-access period. Buying the Digital Deluxe Edition changes the included cosmetics and digital extras, not the date when the full game becomes playable.
Which platforms will Phantom Blade Zero be on?
Phantom Blade Zero is confirmed for PlayStation 5 and Windows PC. The PC version is sold through Steam and the Epic Games Store. The PS5 version is PS5 Pro Enhanced and supports DualSense haptic feedback, adaptive triggers and Tempest 3D AudioTech.
No Xbox Series X|S or Nintendo Switch 2 version has been announced. S-GAME previously said the game was not bound by an exclusivity agreement, as we reported in our earlier Phantom Blade Zero coverage, but that does not amount to confirmation of additional launch platforms.
How much does Phantom Blade Zero cost?
| Edition | US price | Contents |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Edition | $59.99 | Full game |
| Digital Deluxe Edition | $69.99 | Full game, Wulin Legend and Blood-Steel Form appearances, digital artbook and digital soundtrack |
The US PlayStation Store and Steam both list the same $59.99 and $69.99 prices. Regional prices vary by storefront. The Digital Deluxe Edition is a digital package; S-GAME has not announced an Ultimate Edition or a season pass.
What are the Phantom Blade Zero preorder bonuses?
Preordering either edition grants early access to two in-game items:
- Treasure Basin accessory: increases Remnant Dust drops by 10%.
- Legacy appearance: a cosmetic outfit for Soul.
Neither item is permanently exclusive. The official PlayStation product page says both can also be earned through normal progression.
Is there a physical edition?
No worldwide PS5 disc edition has been officially announced. The launch products listed by S-GAME, PlayStation, Steam and Epic are digital. Retailer listings should not be treated as confirmation unless S-GAME adds a physical release to its official lineup.
When can Phantom Blade Zero be preloaded?
S-GAME has not announced a preload date or download size. The PS5 and PC storefronts may expose platform-specific preload details closer to launch, but there is no official date or storage figure to publish yet.

Steam lists DirectX 12 for both tiers. These specifications can still change before release, so PC buyers should recheck the official store page before downloading.
Is Phantom Blade Zero multiplayer?
No. Steam lists Phantom Blade Zero as a single-player game. S-GAME describes it as a dark wuxia action RPG in which Soul, framed for murdering his master and left with 66 days to live, searches for the truth across the Wulin.
