Phantom Blade Zero Might Actually Be Game of the Year | Khan’s Kast ft. FightinCowboy

In this episode of Khan’s Kast, we’re joined by FightinCowboy to talk about Phantom Blade Zero. We dig into the combat system, weapon variety, difficulty, and why so much of the online discourse around the game feels off. Cowboy shares his experience after 15+ hours, including why he sees it as a potential Game of the Year and how it sits between character-action games and soulslikes.
