When Do Phantom Blade Zero Pre-Orders Open?

Phantom Blade Zero pre-orders officially open on August 12, 2026, at 4:00 AM CEST or August 11 at 7:00 PM PT/ 10:00 PM PT. The action RPG will be available to reserve digitally on the PlayStation Store, Steam, and the Epic Games Store ahead of its late October global launch.

S-GAME marked the announcement with a brief 30-second teaser video setting the stage. The footage shows the protagonist, Soul, being greeted by a mysterious woman before she departs.

The studio has confirmed that the opening of digital reservations will be accompanied by a substantial gameplay presentation.


Development Complete and the 11-Minute Trailer

The evolution from an indie RPG Maker project to a high-budget Unreal Engine 5 action game is officially complete. S-GAME confirmed that the final build is ready, ensuring the title meets its scheduled launch date without further issues.

To celebrate the milestone, the studio is preparing an extensive 11-minute trailer to accompany the pre-order launch. This presentation promises previously unseen narrative elements, character introductions, and a deeper look at the mechanics.

Players will step into the shoes of Soul, a skilled assassin framed for the murder of his clan leader. Saved by a mysterious healer, he is given exactly 66 days to live, forcing a race against time to uncover the truth.


The Road to the October Release

The game was originally targeted for a September release before S-GAME shifted the launch to October 29, 2026. As previously reported during the State of Play delay announcement, the studio opted for extra time to polish the experience for day-one players rather than relying on post-launch patches.

The extra refinement time will benefit the highly anticipated combat mechanics. Drawing inspiration from Hong Kong martial arts cinema and traditional Hung Ga kung fu, the combat blends fast-paced combo strings reminiscent of titles like Ninja Gaiden and Sekiro.

With the final build complete and the release date secured, the focus now shifts to the impending gameplay showcase. The upcoming 11-minute trailer will provide the clearest look yet at whether the ambitious Kung Fu Punk title can deliver on its high expectations.
