Phantom Blade Zero - Why Its World Could Be Just as Engaging as Its Combat

Phantom Blade Zero might be selling its combat quite enthusiastically ahead of its release, but that doesn’t mean that the rest of the game is any less significant to the experience it aims to present us with. The Wulin, or the Phantom World, is equally important as the stage that allows the entire adventure to unfold. As such, it fills a role that’s as important as the gameplay, and we think it’s going to surpass the expectations it carries, and perhaps rival Soul himself in terms of how memorable it can be. Why is that? As always, the answers are long and nuanced. Join us as we dive into what we think about a world that could have us firmly settled in until we’ve teased out every little secret it holds.
