VGChartz's Thomas Froehlicher: "Phantom Blade Zero was one of the most exciting games I played at TGS 2024 (on par with Persona 5: The Phantom X). Not only does it feature exhilarating battles and awesome gameplay, but it's also very quick and easy to adapt to. It's also appealing in terms of graphics and visual design, though we've yet to discover how it fares in terms of narrative and gameplay freedom. S-Game's title now finds itself a few notches higher on my most anticipated PS5 game list following this demo."
pbzero_official: "We decided to make a game that everyone here could be deeply proud of."
The Outerhaven writes: Phantom Blade Zero showed up at CES 2026 with new playable build. Improved optimization, and combat that feels better than what I've played in prior versions.
"This build felt close to final for a couple of reasons. First, the optimization was excellent. The game was running at a smooth 60 frames per second, and it was doing it on a base PlayStation 5."
At first I though he had mistaken because of the first picture in the article showing a Pro... but if you scroll down you can see that they had a setup for both the base PS5 and a PRO. So, good news then. The game is running on UE5 so it should be a great test for PSSR2.

Looking forward to this.
