Phantom Blade Zero Heading Toward 1 Million Concurrent Steam Players

Phantom Blade Zero has been released, and its Steam concurrent users keep rising by the hour, suggesting it could hit a million players soon.

S-Game’s Phantom Blade Zero has finally been released, and there has been a lot of anticipation for this game, thanks to all the flashy trailers as well as the glowing reviews the title has managed to bring in. It’s just the first day for the title, and it was already the top seller on Steam this week.

Phantom Blade Zero Hits Over 700,000 Concurrent Players on Steam on the First Day

If players head to SteamDB, they will see that Phantom Blade Zero’s all-time concurrent player peak on Steam keeps changing every minute. At the time of writing, the game sits at an all-time peak of 723,876 players, and the trajectory seems to be constantly going higher. The game launched with close to 300,000 players, and throughout the day it has been steadily climbing with thousands of players joining; we could soon see it hit the 1 million mark.

Phantom Blade Zero is the first major console game from S-Game, and it’s currently a timed-exclusive for the PS5 and is available on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store. The dark fantasy soulslike title follows the journey of a character called Soul, who has not only been framed for murdering his master, but also suffered a devastating wound that only gives him 66 days to live.

During this time, players must unravel the conspiracy while exploring Wulin and enjoying authentic martial arts action with a wide range of weapons and enemy types. The title blends the golden age of wuxia cinema with punk fantasy, featuring martial arts, cold steel, mechanical prosthetics, crumbling industrial ruins, traditional Chinese aesthetics, and modern rock music. Insider Gaming has given it a 9/10.
