S-Game promised new trailer for Phantom Blade Zero for Gamescom week, but went even further as director Soulframe Liang discussed the overall flow and exploration in a new developer interview. Check it out below.
The story focuses on Soul, a former assassin of The Order, as he investigates the death of his Matriarch. With little time to live, he can access a massive arsenal of weapons – over 30 main weapons and 20 secondaries are available. However, Phantom Blade Zero won’t limit your options. If you want to rock two main weapons or two secondaries, go right ahead.
It’s the exploration that’s more intriguing. Liang isn’t too keen on a large world where players get lost. You’ll have hand-drawn maps guiding you, but even then, a typical first run may encompass only 30 percent of the total experience, with extensive amounts of missable content.
Liang didn’t provide a release date for Phantom Blade Zero or even an update on its public demo. However, it will be dated before 2025 comes to a close, so stay tuned. Check out some more gameplay here.
