Phantom Blade Zero, a highly anticipated Wuxia-themed action-adventure game, is set to launch on October 28 exclusively for PlayStation consoles. The game, developed by S-Game Studio, features state-of-the-art Unreal Engine 5 graphics and aims to outshine previous Chinese hits like Black Myth: Wukong. Despite its impressive visuals, the developers assure players that the game can run smoothly on older mainstream GPUs, albeit at lower frame rates.
For optimal performance, an Nvidia GTX 1660 or AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT is sufficient for 30 fps at 1080p when upscaled, while a RTX 3060 Ti or RX 6700 XT is needed for 60 fps at 1440p. However, enabling ray tracing on 1080p requires a minimum of an RTX 5060 for maintaining 60 fps. The game also supports path tracing, but S-Game Studio recommends an RTX 5080 for 60 fps in 4K.
Phantom Blade Zero boasts lightweight system requirements, with only 16GB of RAM needed. Pre-orders are now open, and the game will be available on Steam, the Epic Games Store, and PlayStation 5.
