Recently, an IGN contributor played Phantasm Blade Zero for about half a day, offering positive feedback on its boss battles, visuals, and action style. However, he encountered frame rate stutters on a high-end PC.
The author noted that the demo featured numerous boss battles, and the encounters he experienced left a strong positive impression. He also praised the game's distinct visual and action presentation. Although he wasn't initially paying much attention to this title, it has now become one of his most anticipated games for this fall.
These impressions are based on the first few hours of gameplay. The author hopes to continue playing later this month to see if the game can maintain its current standard over a longer playthrough.
PC performance remains a question mark from this demo. The author reported frame rate stutters even on a high-end PC; given the proximity to release, he believes this issue is worth noting. The demo did not provide specific hardware specs, graphics settings, or stutter frequency, so it's unclear how other PC configurations will perform.
