- Phantom Blade Zero just received a brand-new gameplay trailer at The Game Awards.
- The game’s release date has finally been confirmed after years of speculation, and it launches on September 9, 2026.
- This trailer also shows plenty of the high-octane combat from past footage that fans have enjoyed so far.
After the successful release of Black Myth: Wukong, all eyes have now shifted to Phantom Blade Zero. The game has been in development for a long time, and each gameplay trailer has only added to the excitement since its initial debut.
However, one thing missing from the equation so far is the actual release date itself. Fans were quite happy to learn that Phantom Blade Zero’s official release date would be announced at The Game Awards 2025. As expected, the game now has an official release window.
Why it matters: The next year already looks incredibly stacked, and Phantom Blade Zero’s addition has fans even more excited for the next 12 months.
The latest gameplay trailer once again puts the spotlight on the core combat, and it continues to impress. Every strike and counter feels sharp and cinematic, with many fans already saying it may even surpass Sekiro in terms of execution.
Like past trailers, this video is also quite lengthy, demonstrating various boss battles and interesting encounters. In total, the trailer shows nearly five minutes of combat and gameplay.
As for the release date itself, Phantom Blade Zero is set to launch on September 9, 2026. This means that it is just 10 months away at this point, nearly marking an end to the grueling waiting period since the first release.

Some are even calling Phantom Blade Zero the next Black Myth: Wukong, pointing to its potential to draw hundreds of thousands of players at launch. Considering the heavy marketing push and the sheer hype surrounding it, it wouldn’t be surprising if another Chinese-developed title ends up shattering Steam records.
