Cruelmman Studio has revealed Phantom Blade Zero for PlayStation 5, a new hack and slash, action-RPG that will blend "Chinese martial arts and steampunk".
Shown off at the May 2023 PlayStation event, no release date was given.
What is Phantom Blade Zero?
The story revolves around a character who is going to die in 66 days and is aiming to undo “claim back their heart.”
There are plenty of interesting characters and mechanics that are looking like they are going to come into play throughout the game. For example, there will be parrying, wall running, jumping and much more.
At the moment, we don’t know much about the upcoming hack n slash game. The combat appears to be fast-paced, with combat based on Chinese Martial Arts and inspiration taken from Steampunk aesthetics. It is up to you to play as a Dark Raider and discover the dark secrets of Wulin as you seek vengeance against “the Order”.
Cruelman Studio is based in Hong Kong, and has worked with the likes of Tencent and Square Enix in the past. So far, there is no release date for Phantom Blade Zero.
