Phantom Blade Zero Editions & Preorder Guide: Prices and Bonuses
Phantom Blade Zero preorder guide: Standard and Digital Deluxe prices on PS5, Steam, and Epic, every preorder bonus, and whether preordering is worth it.
Phantom Blade Zero Editions at a Glance
Phantom Blade Zero preorders went live on August 11, 2026 (7 PM PT; August 12 in most other regions), when S-GAME opened the game on all three launch storefronts alongside an 11-minute trailer. The game launches October 29, 2026 on PS5 and PC — a date moved forward by 50 days from the original September 9 slot so the team could keep polishing.
There are exactly two editions, and both are digital:
| Edition | PS Store (US) | Steam (US) | Epic (US) | What you get |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $59.99 | $59.99 | $59.99 | Full game + preorder bonuses |
| Digital Deluxe | $69.99 | $69.99 | $69.99 | Everything above + 4 Deluxe extras |
Two things stand out in that table. First, the pricing is flat across every store — $59.99 Standard and $69.99 Digital Deluxe on PS5, Steam and Epic alike — so platform choice is about features, not price. Second, there is no Ultimate, Collector, or Season Pass tier to decode: S-GAME has kept the ladder short, and nothing announced so far is pay-to-win.
Preorder Bonuses: What Ordering Early Actually Gets You
Every storefront offers the same preorder incentive, and the official PlayStation product page spells out exactly what it is:
| Bonus | Type | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Treasure Basin | Accessory | Increases Remnant Dust drop rate by 10% |
| Legacy | Appearance/outfit | Cosmetic |
The important fine print, quoted from both the PS Store and Steam listings: this is an Early Unlock. Both items “can also be obtained through in-game progression.” In other words, the preorder bonus is a convenience, not a gate — if you buy at launch or during a winter sale, you lose nothing except having the Treasure Basin available from hour zero.
That matters because the Treasure Basin is the one preorder item with a gameplay effect. A 10% bump to Remnant Dust drops is a genuine early-game quality-of-life boost, but a modest one — it is not an exclusive weapon, stat boost, or anything that changes how the 55-weapon combat system plays. If you are the type to wait for reviews, that trade is easy to make. For a fuller picture of what the game asks of you before money changes hands, our Phantom Blade Zero beginner guide covers the combat, difficulties, and structure the bonuses sit on top of.
Digital Deluxe Edition: What the Extra $10 Includes
The Digital Deluxe Edition is the only upgrade tier, and its contents are the same on every platform:
- Deluxe-exclusive appearance: Wulin Legend — an outfit for Soul
- Deluxe-exclusive appearance: Blood-Steel Form — a second outfit
- Digital artbook
- Digital soundtrack (OST)
- The preorder bonuses (Treasure Basin + Legacy) if you order before launch
Note the official label: the two outfits are listed as Deluxe Edition exclusive appearances, and the artbook and OST are digital extras — there is no physical merchandise in any Western edition. Whether the two outfits could later surface through in-game progression or paid cosmetics is not stated in official materials; as of this writing the listings present them as Deluxe-only. If your motivation is purely power or content, nothing here affects the weapons roster or story access — the Deluxe tier is for players who already know they want the look and the music.
Phantom Blade Zero Price per Platform and Store
Consolidated US pricing as of August 26, 2026, verified against the live store pages:
| Storefront | Platform | Standard | Digital Deluxe | Region notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PlayStation Store | PS5 | $59.99 | $69.99 | Digital only; no disc SKU announced |
| Steam | PC | $59.99 | $69.99 | Achievements, cloud saves, 15 languages, Denuvo |
| Epic Games Store | PC | $59.99 | $69.99 | Includes Fortnite gift-with-purchase |
Prices in other regions are set by each storefront’s regional pricing and were still settling in the first weeks after preorders opened, so treat your local listing as the source of truth — European, UK, and Japanese pricing on the PS Store generally tracks the US structure rather than the Steam cut. Also worth knowing before you pick a platform: the Steam listing confirms a broad 15-language support table (full audio in English and Chinese, subtitles across the rest), and the minimum PC spec is a GTX 1660 / RX 5500 XT class GPU with an SSD required, so the Steam discount does not come with a harsher hardware bar.
One platform caveat worth repeating: PS5 is a 12-month timed console exclusive, while the PC version launches the same day — so choosing the Steam or Epic version does not force you to wait if you had assumed console-first. The trade you are making is DualSense haptics and adaptive triggers, which the PS listing highlights, versus Steam’s achievements and family sharing.
Where to Preorder Phantom Blade Zero
All three storefronts carry both editions and identical preorder bonuses:
- PlayStation Store (PS5) — search “Phantom Blade Zero” on your console or the web store; preorders charge immediately and preload before launch.
- Steam (PC) — the Phantom Blade Zero page is open for pre-purchase at $59.99/$69.99. The listing confirms Steam Achievements, Cloud saves, and 15 supported languages, and notes Denuvo anti-tamper.
- Epic Games Store (PC) — the Epic listing adds a gift-with-purchase: a Fortnite Soul Outfit plus the Sanguine Pickaxe and Back Bling, with the outfit granted immediately when you pre-purchase.
There is no officially sanctioned third-party key reseller program to speak of, and anything cheaper than MSRP before launch should be treated with the usual skepticism. If you are on PS5 and undecided, the playable demo coverage from the August State of Play is a far better purchase signal than any preorder incentive.
Is There a Physical or Collector’s Edition?
In North America and Europe: no. Preorders opened digital-only, and no physical PS5 disc edition has been announced for Western retail. S-GAME has a physical presence in its home market, though: media reports from August 2026 describe a China-exclusive physical collector’s edition, limited to 20,000 units, containing a 1/12-scale figurine of Soul and an activation code for the Digital Deluxe Edition — meaning even collectors in China get a download, not a disc. Whether any of that comes West, or a standard disc run appears later, is unannounced; this page will be updated if it changes.
Is Preordering Phantom Blade Zero Worth It?
Honest answer: only if you were buying day one anyway. Here is the reasoning:
| Argument for preordering | Argument against |
|---|---|
| All three stores charge the same price | Preorder bonuses are early unlocks, earnable in-game |
| Treasure Basin gives a mild 10% currency boost from hour one | No reviews or performance data exist yet for either platform |
| Epic buyers get the Fortnite crossover items free | The 50-day delay shows scope risk is real, even if polish-motivated |
| Deluxe is fairly priced for an artbook + OST + two outfits | Launch-day patches can change the experience you paid early for |
The strongest preorder case is locking in the Standard Edition at $59.99 if you are confident in the game — the preorder early-unlock bonuses stack on top and cost nothing extra. The weakest case is preordering Digital Deluxe blind: paying $69.99 for cosmetics and an artbook before anyone has verified the PC port or the PS5 performance is a bet, not a bargain. Trophy hunters can afford to wait too — nothing announced touches the platinum roadmap, and the boss roster does not change by edition (see the boss list).
Refunds and Cancellations by Storefront
Because preorders charge in full at purchase, the exit door matters:
- Steam — the standard refund policy applies: pre-purchased games can be refunded at any time before release, and after release the usual 14-day/under-2-hours rule takes over.
- PlayStation Store — preorders can be cancelled for a full refund up to two weeks from purchase, provided you have not started downloading the game; once download begins, the refund window closes.
- Epic Games Store — self-service refunds follow the standard 14-day/under-2-hours policy, and pre-purchases are refundable until launch.
Policies are subject to each storefront’s terms at the time you order, so check the refund link on the checkout page — but as of writing, all three storefronts let you walk away from this preorder cleanly before October 29.

Frequently Asked Questions
▸ How much does Phantom Blade Zero cost?
The US PlayStation Store, Steam, and the Epic Games Store all list the Standard Edition at $59.99 and the Digital Deluxe Edition at $69.99. Regional pricing varies, and store listings can change before the October 29, 2026 launch.
▸ What do you get for preordering Phantom Blade Zero?
Preordering either edition unlocks two items early: the Treasure Basin accessory, which increases the Remnant Dust drop rate by 10%, and the Legacy outfit. Both are early unlocks only — S-GAME confirms they can also be obtained through normal in-game progression, so nothing in the preorder bonus is permanently missable.
▸ What is in the Phantom Blade Zero Digital Deluxe Edition?
The Digital Deluxe Edition includes the full game plus two Deluxe-exclusive appearances, Wulin Legend and Blood-Steel Form, a digital artbook, and the digital soundtrack (OST). Preordering the Deluxe Edition also grants the standard preorder bonuses: the Treasure Basin accessory and the Legacy outfit.
▸ Where can you preorder Phantom Blade Zero?
Preorders are live on the PlayStation Store (PS5), Steam, and the Epic Games Store. All three carry the same two editions and the same preorder bonuses. The Epic listing additionally offers a Fortnite Soul Outfit and Sanguine Pickaxe and Back Bling as a gift-with-purchase.
▸ Is there a physical or collector's edition of Phantom Blade Zero?
In Western markets, no. Preorders opened digital-only on August 11, 2026, and no disc edition has been announced for PS5 retail. A physical collector's edition was announced for China only — limited to 20,000 units with a 1/12-scale Soul figurine — and even that contains a Digital Deluxe download code rather than a disc.
