Quick answers

Most-asked questions

How do you save in Phantom Blade Zero?

You save at bells. Interact with any bell and pick Save from its menu, which also offers Traverse, Upgrade Equipment, Store and Train Abilities. You can't save away from a bell. The game gives you 20 manual save slots plus 3 rotating autosaves, and resting at a bell heals you and reveals the nearby map.

How do you get the bow in Phantom Blade Zero?

The first bow is the Feather Bow, a ranged Phantom Edge from Weeping Creek Valley. After beating Peng Meng, clear the Ruthless Archer Camp and take the broken bow from the dying archer in the top house. Back at the Outpost bell, the former archer sitting on a roof opposite the blacksmith repairs it.

Can you sheath your weapon in Phantom Blade Zero?

No source we trust has confirmed a sheath button in Phantom Blade Zero yet. No guide we've checked lists a manual sheathe input, though players report the weapon goes away while crouching. Look under Controls in the settings menu, where any unbound action would appear. We'll update this page as soon as a sheath input is confirmed.

How do you change outfits in Phantom Blade Zero?

Open the Character screen and equip an outfit you own, according to Game8. Its list has four: Legacy from pre-orders, Sanguine as the default alternate skin, and Wulin Legend and Blood-Steel Form from the Deluxe Edition. Another guide says you switch from the map menu instead, so the exact path is still being checked.

How do you get the true ending in Phantom Blade Zero?

To get the true ending, finish every purple-icon quest in the story menu before you enter Mirage Estate, then complete Bloodline Awakening, which means all five Long Pillar fights. You also need the optional bosses Zhu Yuan and Bi Feng. With everything done, a hidden final battle follows the normal final boss.

How long is Phantom Blade Zero?

Phantom Blade Zero takes about 20–30 hours to beat the main story, according to estimates linked to the developers. Doing side content brings it to roughly 35–40 hours, and completionists should expect 50–60 hours or more. Player-measured averages aren't available yet, because the game launched on October 29, 2026.

Does Phantom Blade Zero have an easy mode?

Yes. Phantom Blade Zero has adjustable difficulty with four reported levels, and Wayfarer is cited as the easiest. You can change it during play, and trophies, including the platinum, still unlock on easy. Finishing the game unlocks the harder 66 Days mode. Sources disagree on the other levels' exact names.

What are the best PC settings for Phantom Blade Zero?

For Phantom Blade Zero on PC, start at the High preset with DLSS Quality (or your GPU's upscaler) and turn ray tracing off. Then add effects while you hold 60 fps, because parry timing matters more than visuals. The recommended spec, an RTX 3060 Ti or RX 6700 XT with 16 GB RAM, targets 1440p at 60 fps with upscaling.

What are the best PS5 Pro settings for Phantom Blade Zero?

On PS5 Pro, Phantom Blade Zero reportedly runs at a mostly stable 60 fps with ray tracing, with some dips in boss fights. For a parry-heavy game, pick the performance-focused mode on either PS5 model, because a steady frame rate helps your timing. Exact resolutions per mode aren't confirmed yet.
