Phantom Blade Zero Release Date, Price And PC Requirements

Phantom Blade Zero, S-GAME’s wuxia action game, is due this week, and Steam’s Australian page lists it at A$84.95.

The studio’s letter from its creative director, posted on Steam on 3 June, gave the date. It reads “Phantom Blade Zero will now launch on October 29, 2026, moved from its previous date of September 9, 2026.”

The Steam page’s own release date field read 28 Oct, 2026 when it was checked on 26 October. Neither source says why the two differ.

The Digital Deluxe Edition is listed at A$99.95. Steam describes the game as running on Unreal Engine 5, with the player as Soul, “a warrior with only sixty-six days left to live.”

On PC, the minimum requirements list Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit), an Intel Core i7-8700K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600, 16 GB of RAM and a GeForce GTX 1660 6GB or Radeon RX 5500 XT 8GB. The note says that is for 1080p at 30 FPS with upscaling enabled.

The recommended list asks for an Intel Core i5-10600K or AMD Ryzen 5 5600X, 16 GB of RAM and a GeForce RTX 3060 Ti 8GB or Radeon RX 6700 XT 12GB. That one targets 1440p at 60 FPS with upscaling enabled. Both lists add that SSD installation is required.

Steam lists the game for Windows only, with full controller support, DualSense support and single-player. It offers 15 languages, with full audio in English and Simplified Chinese. The store page carries a launch trailer, a pre-order trailer, a release date trailer and a gameplay trailer.
