Alinea Analytics estimates that Phantom Blade Zero, a wuxia action game developed by S-GAME, sold approximately 1 million copies globally before its official release. Meanwhile, IGN gave the game a score of 9.
By region and channel, combined pre-sales on Steam and PS5 in Western markets totaled approximately 850,000 copies; the WeGame platform, operated by Tencent for the Chinese market, accounted for an additional 250,000 copies.
The sum of the above breakdown exceeds the generalized figure of "approximately 1 million copies globally." Currently, publicly available information does not clarify the detailed statistical methodology or cutoff date, nor does it provide backend data from each platform. Therefore, these figures are estimates from third-party analytics firms and not official sales data released by S-GAME.
Existing data covers three channels: Steam, PS5, and WeGame, with Western market data for Steam and PS5 not further broken down. The most reliable conclusion at present is that the global pre-sale scale for Phantom Blade Zero before its release was estimated to be around 1 million copies.
