Phantom Blade Zero Sets September 9, 2026 Release for PS5 and PC

A Game Awards trailer highlights Wuxia‑steampunk combat alongside the studio's 'not-a-Soulslike' stance.

Overview

  • S-GAME confirmed the date with a new four-minute trailer during The Game Awards.
  • The game launches on PlayStation 5 and on Windows PC via Steam, with PS5 remaining the sole console platform announced.
  • Players control Soul, an elite assassin with only 66 days to live after being framed for his master's murder.
  • The project is built on Unreal Engine 5 with extensive motion capture to capture Hong Kong martial-arts choreography.
  • Combat focuses on fast, cinematic melee with over 30 weapons and more than 20 unique 'Phantom Edges,' and the developer says it is not a pure Soulslike.
