Prices recorded in the research
The Steam capture lists the standard pre-purchase at ¥268 and the Digital Deluxe Edition at ¥328. Both values appear together in a Chinese-language storefront snapshot. The difference between the two recorded offers is ¥60, but the research does not supply a global pricing policy.
A regional Steam value should not be converted into dollars, euros, pounds, or other currencies using a live exchange rate and then presented as official. Publishers often set regional prices independently of currency conversion. For that reason, every non-yuan amount is pending confirmation in this article.
What can change the final amount
Taxes, platform fees, regional pricing, temporary promotions, and store policy can change the amount a player sees. The supplied research does not contain a PlayStation Store price table or physical retailer pricing. It also does not provide a launch discount schedule beyond the captured pre-purchase state.
The safest answer is to quote the recorded values with their regional context and avoid universal claims. Players should check their own official storefront for the current amount before purchasing. If a different number appears, it should not be called an error unless the region, platform, edition, and date are the same.
Confirmed game identity
The supplied Steam research identifies Phantom Blade Zero as an Action RPG developed by S-GAME Studio and published by S-GAME Publishing. Its official tags include Action RPG, Martial Arts, Action, Wuxia, and Dark Fantasy. The same source says the game is powered by Unreal Engine 5 and presents its visual identity as kungfupunk.
Kungfupunk is described through a specific combination of golden-age wuxia cinema and punk fantasy. The recorded visual ingredients include martial arts, cold steel, mechanical prosthetics, crumbling industrial ruins, traditional Chinese aesthetics, and modern rock music. These are confirmed presentation details, while player-created labels that do not appear in the official material should be treated as interpretations rather than facts.
Release and platform context
The captured Steam page gives October 29, 2026 as the release date and names PC through Steam as a supported platform. The supplied State of Play video is published as a PS5 Games presentation, supporting PlayStation 5 availability in the collected material. An Xbox version, Nintendo Switch 2 version, or Game Pass release is not confirmed by the supplied sources and therefore remains pending confirmation.
The Steam capture lists single-player play, Steam Achievements, Steam Cloud, Family Sharing, full controller support, and fifteen supported languages. English and Simplified Chinese are recorded with interface, full audio, and subtitle support, while the visible extract also lists French, German, and Spanish interface and subtitle support. Store features can change before launch, so this page reports the captured research rather than predicting later platform policy.
Story and world details that are confirmed
The main character is Soul, a warrior framed for murdering his master and left with a devastating wound to the heart. A mysterious healer restores his life under a fatal condition: Soul has sixty-six days to live. His journey through the Wulin centers on finding a cure and unraveling the conspiracy that has trapped the martial world.
The State of Play transcript describes eight hand-painted Chinese ink-wash maps that connect into one handcrafted world. It explicitly says Phantom Blade Zero is neither an open-world game nor a strictly linear adventure from beginning to end. Hidden enemies, side quests, rare treasures, story clues, passages, mechanisms, villages, valleys, lakes, and shadowed territories are all part of the recorded exploration description.
Source limits and pending information
The supplied files contain exact URLs for the Steam store page and the State of Play gameplay deep dive on YouTube. They mention an official website and Discord entry but do not preserve the actual URLs, so those links remain marked pending confirmation on this site. Raw search phrases in the keyword file show what players want to know, but a search phrase is not evidence that a demo, edition, platform, or feature exists.
No verified redemption code appears anywhere in the supplied research, so the site displays “暂无” instead of creating one. Unsupported prices, release formats, cast members, edition contents, demo dates, and platform claims are also marked pending confirmation. This evidence rule is intentionally strict because an incomplete answer is more useful than a confident but invented detail.
