Will Phantom Blade Zero Be on PC?

Last verified · PBZ Wiki

Yes. Phantom Blade Zero releases on PC the same day as PS5 — October 29, 2026 — on both Steam and the Epic Games Store. PC is not held back by the exclusivity deal, which covers consoles only. Pre-orders opened on both stores on August 11, 2026, at $59.99 for Standard and $69.99 for Digital Deluxe.

PC Is Day One, Not a Later Port

This is the single most persistent misunderstanding about Phantom Blade Zero. The PlayStation 5 version holds a twelve-month console exclusivity window. Console. PC storefronts sit entirely outside that clause, which is why Steam and Epic pre-orders opened on the same day and hour as PlayStation's.

The Steam listing went live under app ID 4115450, published by S-GAME Publishing and developed by S-GAME Studio, with the game tagged across Action, RPG, Martial Arts, Wuxia, Dark Fantasy and Souls-like. Fifteen languages are supported, including full English and both Chinese scripts.

Steam or Epic Games Store?

Both stores carry the identical Standard and Digital Deluxe editions at the same US prices, with the same Treasure Basin accessory and Legacy outfit pre-order bonuses. S-GAME has not announced any store-exclusive content on either side.

The practical differences are the usual ones rather than anything specific to this game: Steam gives you the workshop-adjacent ecosystem, cloud saves, family sharing and a far more active discussion board; Epic periodically runs coupon promotions that can undercut the sticker price. If you want the community layer around a game this discussion-heavy, Steam is the stronger pick.

What PC Players Should Check First

Run your hardware against the official numbers before committing. The minimum tier is an Intel Core i5-8700K or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 with 16 GB of RAM and a GTX 1660 or RX 5500 XT, producing 1080p/30 with upscaling already enabled. Recommended targets 1440p/60, also with upscaling. Both tiers require an SSD — this is stated as a requirement, not a suggestion.

The full table, including how to read the upscaling caveat, is on the system requirements page.

Install Size, Pre-Load and Denuvo

Not announced yet. Install size, pre-load timing and any third-party DRM have not been disclosed for the PC version. S-GAME has published nothing on this as of August 21, 2026, and this wiki does not publish estimates as facts. This page is updated the day that changes.

You will find pages quoting 50 GB, 80 GB or 100 GB. None of those trace back to an S-GAME statement or a store listing — they are extrapolations from comparable Unreal Engine 5 titles. SteamDB will surface the real depot size once builds are pushed publicly, which typically happens in the final weeks before launch.

What the Steam Listing Tells You

The store page is a useful primary source beyond the buy button. It confirms S-GAME Studio as developer and S-GAME Publishing as publisher, lists fifteen supported languages including full English and both Chinese scripts, and carries the tag set the studio and community have applied: Action, RPG, Action RPG, Martial Arts, Wuxia, Dark Fantasy, Hack and Slash, Souls-like, Third Person, Singleplayer, Story Rich, Combat and Cinematic.

That Souls-like tag is worth noting precisely because S-GAME's own term for the game is different — a Kungfupunk action RPG. We unpack that gap on the soulslike comparison page.
