Phantom Blade Zero is an upcoming action role-playing game with hack and slash elements being developed and published by Chinese[1] game studio S-GAME for Windows and PlayStation 5. The game will feature fast-paced, third-person combat set in a dark, samurai-themed world. The game is a spiritual successor to the game Rainblood: Town of Death.[2]

Gameplay

Phantom Blade Zero is set in the Phantom World, a shared world with other games developed by S-GAME. In Phantom Blade Zero, the player controls Soul, an elite assassin who serves an organization known as The Order. Players can explore a semi-open world split into large connected areas while fighting perilous foes. The combat utilizes a two-button combo system that lets the player unleash stylish attacks and a block that drains stamina. The game's combat has been compared to Dark Souls and other Soulslike games.[3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10]

Plot

The main character Soul is framed for the murder of The Order's patriarch. Soul gets severely injured in an ensuing manhunt and a mystic healer saves Soul from dying with a magic cure. The cure lasts for 66 days and Soul must find who framed him for murder before his time runs out.
