Phantom Blade Zero Gameplay
Phantom Blade Zero is a fast-paced action-adventure RPG with a unique artstyle dubbed as ‘Kungfupunk,’ combining the ancient aesthetics of Chinese Kung Fu and Wuxia films alongside its modern renditions in current pop culture such as Michelle Yeoh and Donnie Yen, all fused with a steampunk core. The resulting product is a dark and gritty fantastical Phantom World where the action is fast, complex, and far from being a soulslike contrary to surface-level glances. It will be a semi-open world with reasonably sized handcrafted zones full of diverse content and activities.
Demo Highlights
On July 13, S-Game released a demo highlight for Phantom Blade Zero that shows a glimpse into the game's fast-paced combat.
Phantom Blade Zero Story Plot
Phantom Blade Zero stars Soul, an elite assassin who works under ‘The Order,’ a powerful organization residing in Wulin. However, Soul is framed for a murder he didn’t commit, and is left to take the fall. He barely survived as he escapes captivity, but he’s too gravely injured to survive any further. He then encounters a magical healer who saves him from his inevitable death–with a catch. The cure for his wounds will only last for 66 days, where he would ultimately perish as the days deplete.
Soul embarks on a journey of vengeance as he seeks to uncover who framed him, and in his path stands The Order, as well as the numerous secrets that the land of Wulin holds before his eventual demise.
