Frequently asked questions
How many chapters does Phantom Blade Zero have?
It has a prologue and nine chapters. Chapters 5 (Hero or Heretic) and 7 (Treason and Confinement) are optional to see the credits, but required for the true ending.
Is it an open world?
Not entirely. It is a semi-open world: handcrafted, connected regions with shortcuts, hidden areas and paths that open up with certain Phantom Edges.
What is the point of no return?
Going through the door at the back of the Green Serpent House, in Pangzhen, into the Mirage Estate. From then on you lose the purple quests, the first four Long Pillars and Quick Hand's Request.
How long is the story?
Between 25 and 30 hours if you focus on the story, 35-40 with the side quests and 50-60 hours to complete it 100%.
