Pre-orders for Phantom Blade Zero are open on PlayStation 5, Steam, and the Epic Games Store. S-GAME has set the standard edition at $59.99 and the deluxe edition at $69.99, and the game launches on October 29, 2026.

Quick answer: Buy the standard edition ($59.99) or the deluxe edition ($69.99) on PS5, Steam, or Epic to lock in a pre-order. Every pre-order includes an early accessory and a costume, while the deluxe adds two exclusive outfits, a digital artbook, and the digital soundtrack.

Editions and pricing

Two digital editions are available. The pricing sits below many other games of this scale, and the split between the two versions comes down to cosmetic and bonus content rather than gameplay access.

EditionPriceWhat you get
Standard$59.99Base game, plus a pre-order accessory and costume
Deluxe$69.99Base game, two exclusive outfits, digital artbook, and digital soundtrack

Note: The accessory and costume from the standard pre-order can also be unlocked by playing through the game, so they are early-access rewards rather than exclusive items. The deluxe outfits, artbook, and soundtrack are tied to that edition.


Where to pre-order and platform availability

Phantom Blade Zero launches on PS5 and PC at the same time. All three storefronts open pre-orders now, and each version releases on October 29, 2026.

PlatformLaunch dateNotes
PS5October 29, 2026Console exclusive for 12 months
PC (Steam)October 29, 2026Wishlist and pre-order available
PC (Epic Games Store)October 29, 2026Available at launch
Xbox Series X/SNot confirmedNot before October 2027 at the earliest

The PS5 version carries a 12-month console exclusivity clause, which blocks an Xbox release until at least October 2027. PC players are not affected by that restriction and get the full game on day one. You can pre-order or wishlist the PC version on its Steam store page.


Donnie Yen’s role in Phantom Blade Zero

Alongside the pre-order launch, S-GAME confirmed that martial artist and actor Donnie Yen, known for the Ip Man films, has worked as a Creative Consultant on the game since 2023.

Yen also served as a facial and motion capture performer for Mo Yuan, one of the characters in the game. S-GAME credited Yen and his stunt team with bringing authentic Kung Fu to the project. The reveal arrived with a new 11-minute trailer posted to the studio’s social channels.


Release date and the delay from September

The October 29, 2026 date is a move from the original September 9, 2026 window, which S-GAME first announced at The Game Awards in December 2025. That is roughly a 50-day delay, and the game still launches on PS5 and PC together.

S-GAME CEO Soulframe explained the shift as a final polish pass. The team upgraded a number of character models and reworked many environments, and put extra work into preserving the game’s look for players who do not use ray tracing. Ray tracing remains supported but is not required for the intended experience.

Phantom Blade Zero puts you in the role of Soul, an assassin framed for his master’s death and left with sixty-six days to live. Built in Unreal Engine 5, it features more than thirty weapons and over twenty “Phantom Edge” combinations, with a “Kungfupunk” style drawing on Hong Kong martial arts cinema. With pre-orders now open and the launch set for October 29, the remaining question is how the combat depth holds up once the full game is in players’ hands.
