Phantom Blade Zero Story
Phantom World is a game universe where different types of powers coexist. You will encounter Chinese Kungfu, steampunk-like machines, occult arts, and other mysterious phenomena. In Phantom Blade Zero, you play as Soul, a skilled assassin who works for a secretive and powerful group called “The Order.”
Someone accused him of killing The Order’s leader and wounded him in the chase that followed. A mysterious healer saved his life, but only for 66 days. He has to find out who framed him and why before his time is up, facing formidable enemies and unnatural creatures.
Phantom Blade Zero Gameplay
Phantom Blade Zero takes place in a semi-open world. The game developers know that “open world” is a popular trend nowadays, but they prefer to create multiple maps of reasonable size, each with its own details and activities, rather than one huge map full of recycled assets. The dark/bleak visual style of the game is intentional.
It contrasts with the characters who have good hearts, and it warns you to be careful. There are many powerful enemies who want you dead, but they also offer great rewards, such as weapons, armor, artifacts, skills, and other ways to customize or improve your character.
