Rumor: Release date for Phantom Blade Zero, a Sekiro-like action game, has surfaced

Phantom Blade Zero May Release in 2026: New Details

It seems the developers of Phantom Blade Zero accidentally revealed their release plans. According to rumors, this dynamic action game, reminiscent of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and Devil May Cry, is slated for release in 2026.

This information comes from well-known gaming blogger JorRaptor in his review of the game’s demo provided by the developers. According to him, the project is planned for release in the fall of 2026. Based on his observations, the game still requires polish and is missing significant content, making this date appear plausible.

In his review, JorRaptor also highlighted several new details observed in the demo:

• The game lasts around 30-40 hours.
• Souls-like mechanics are present but in a more forgiving form.
• Balance and difficulty are well-developed.
• The game features attack and parry combinations, as well as parkour elements.
• There are about 30 types of weapons, some of which drop from bosses.
• The story will have multiple endings, and players can continue exploring the world after completing the main campaign.
• Multiplayer levels are implemented.
