One of the most impressive-looking titles shown during last week's PlayStation Showcase was Phantom Blade Zero, an upcoming action RPG announced for PS5 and PC. However, while the game was only announced for those two platforms during Sony's show, it doesn't appear to be locked onto those systems.
Is Phantom Blade Zero Coming To Xbox Series X And S?
In a developer Q&A posted on the game's Discord channel, the question of console exclusivity was posed to the team. Their answer was brief and clear - although the game has only been revealed for PS5 and PC, there isn't any sort of exclusivity deal in place for Phantom Blade Zero.
"For now we don't have any exclusivity on any platform."
To be clear, an Xbox version of the game hasn't been announced just yet. But, it looks like the game could feasibly appear on Xbox if the demand is there, and if the team is open to working with Microsoft on bringing Phantom Blade Zero over to Xbox consoles.
We'll drop last week's reveal trailer at the top of the article so you can get a clear idea of what this game is going for, which as you can see, has been getting lots of attention so far. Almost two million views in less than five days - Phantom Blade Zero has made a big splash and we sincerely hope the dev is thinking about an Xbox version!
Do you hope this one hits Xbox some day? Let us know if you'd like to play Phantom Blade Zero on your Series X or S!

Behold! My new Ninja Gaiden "Souls" game. Im gonna buy this game on day one if it comes out for XBoxS.
I'm all for this game along with black myth: wukong...(journey to the west), bring it on.
Just wanted to remind everyone this game still looks sketchy as hell, just as it did when it looked like Sony exclusive.
Keeping my expectations low, but would love to be pleasantly surprised.
Why didn't they develop it for Xbox right of the bat?
This issue is gonna keep getting worse at this rate. It's only a matter of time before bigger studios and publishers voluntarily skip Xbox
I couldn't care less about Spiderman, or whatever Naughty Dog makes, but this one and Rise of the Ronin? Damn.
Guys did you hear that actually the game started dev last year! Thats weird... It can the gameplay trailer could be just for show
@Cassislight For reference, it’s a hack and slash and not souls like from what I’ve read.
y'all go send them en email and tell them you want it on Xbox, let's make it happen pbex@s-gamestudio.com
I doubt it will ever release or look and play even remotely close to the trailer so I'd say it doesn't really matter.
This looks pretty decent
@Chaudy They're actually quite a small studio (for how good the game looked) also Xbox has a tiny footprint in China.
Personally while I think it LOOKED amazing, i'm not convinced it will play amazing. Add it to a growing list of Chinese developed games in that category that look incredible, but the proof will be in the playing, like Black Myth Wuking, Lost Soul Aside, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, etc.
